FACULTY Top Row: Left to Right: Miss Williams In her first year of teaching she has won the friend- ship of the high school students with her charming manner and sincere friendliness. To her we owe thanks for the many hours and headaches she spent in supervising and advising the Ternpest staff. Miss Hurt This soft-spoken lady will long be remembered by the commercial students of C.H.S. for her understanding patience and unrelentless efforts to help each and every one of her students. Mrs. Trulin Her forceful manner of teaching has revealed the intellectual side of English and Speech to her many students. Even the unpleasantness of the subjects will be forgotten for the finer things learned. Miss Moulton For boundless patience and sound advise she has endeared herself to her stud ents. If the pupil has any ambition whatsoever he need never fear failing her courses, for he cannot help but learn. Mrs. McMullen For information on information Mrs. Mac is your woman. Her advice and help on digging information from piles upon piles of volumes has helped many a student get a paper in on time--excuse me--hand in a theme. Miss Gerber Her shorthand students appreciate the many patient hours spent in drilling in rudiments which make shorthand stay with them, And her Spanish students are grateful for the richer life she has opened to them. 3
