OUR TEACHERS tXVith apologies in advance! Most accounts of our teachers would begin with the principal. But we a1'e going to begin with Van , our janitor. He is not hired as a teacher, but is one just the same- -teaching us courtesy, humor, and cleanliness every day, as he goes about his daily tasks. No high school ever had a better janitor than Van! And Benny, whom we lost this year, who took such good care of the central building -4 he taught us, too. Remember those sleight-of- hand shows he used to give us? He taught us a love of fun. On the same floor with Van. within reach of the Coca-Cola machine and handy to the gym. Charles XVood, Sr., hangs out. Charles is our Maggie 1na11, and for all his stern tat-iturnity. is a conscious humorist with many a twinkle in his eye. He weighs 190 lbs. avoirdupois. but cau't bowl harder than a lady. Perhaps that is why he is a gentleman. On the main buildings first floor, we find our old-in-years-only friend, Myra Howe, our Latin teacher. Hearing her smart steps down the hall, you'd swear a young woman was coming-and so it is! For all her stern. crusading tfor the righti spirit, Mrs. Howe is youngvat heart. Just be nice to her-and you'l1 find out! Across the hall from Mrs. Howe is 'Clar- ice. Now, isn't that the nicest name? Clarice--but what a mercenary surname. Penney! VVe are almost tempted to add, a fe- for your thoughts ebut that's been done too often. She's a crack dramatic coarli, one of Maine's best! The Siamese twins, inseparable forever. are Miss Percival and Miss Vifhite, teach- ers of history and English, respectively tand respectfully. toob! They room together. eat together, talk together, ride together, ad infinitum. VVhat a tragedy if one were to marry! The bad boy of the crowd is just across the hall from these almost-spinsters. in room 7.
