Alberta Lee Lowery Helen Sawtell Mauck Mary Louise Scothorn Robert McPherson Ethel Hinds Ray Heady ENGLISH What is a split infinitive? Is it proper to end a sen- tence with a preposition? What should a newspaper lead contain? Who was Joyce Kilmer and why did George Eliot use a pen name? But hold on! This isn't an English quiz! We pre- sent the English department of the junior-Senior high school, instead. Miss Alberta Lowrey starts the seventh graders on the road to a better knowledge of their mother tongue. They then visit Miss Mary Louise Scothorn who adds to this beginning with the eighth grade course. Mr. Robert McPherson provides the freshman class with his share of the burden and sends them on tmaybej to-- Mrs. Helen S. Mauck, who has spent many years teaching Junction City people how to talk and what to read. Miss Ethel Hinds is an exponent of the gesture, teach- ing the Juniors and others how to be dramatic. The students by this time, of course, are masters of language and look for fields to conquer with their pens, so the task of directing the embryo journalists falls to Mr. Ray Heady.

SCIENCE AND COMMERCIAL Mr. Patterson thinks that teaching agriculture is the best sort of work because he uses extensively this good old muclball of ours for experimentation. He entered poli- tics this year and was sponsor of the S. E. A. As moral, spiritual, and social advisor of the freshman he was a swell- igant success. Miss Bloome, new member of the faculty, trips with lilting steps across the keyboard of a portable printing machine. Incidentally, if you've ever heard of a Girl Reserve, you know Miss Bloome as a sponsor. Miss Feese, who is Grand Mistress of the Order of Microscopes, Insects, Snakes, and Birds, or sumpin', com- posed of botony and biology students has held this ex- alted office in the senior high school for several years. To make a long story, short, Miss Feese is a veteran poli- tician, having beensponsor and floor-leader of the S. E. A., the student congress, for several sessions. There was a lively bustle of excitement when a box of freight was delivered at the high school building last January for out popped the new addition to the faculty. Mr Carrol K. Ward. He teaches the students how to make a living in this cold, cold world. The new instruc- tor showed the local tennis squad a few tricks aboutthe old game that Tiiden plays. Don't be abstract when you take a science course from Professor H. R. Callahan, He requires solid facts CDon't ask him to define a moleculej. Besides being an eminent au- thority on depression, prohibition, unemployment, and science Call kindsj, his RoyalChemistry-instructor isspon- sor ot the senior Hi Y. May we present for your pleasure, another charming faculty member, Miss Irene Wol-kens-dor-fei. With swiftly moving ,fingers, she socks the keyboard ofa type- writer with tlie speed of light. With a ready smile but a flashing eye that readily detects an unwarranted chewing action by students this tiny wisp of concentrated energy rules, imperiously, sophomores and seniors alike.
