Three cheers for the faculty. No? Well, I'm here to tell you that they are a mighty good sort. Of course, teachers will be teachers, but when one realizes what a terrific strain they are under,ione forgives them for often carrying that I'm a slave driver expression and an perfectly fierce mood. However, off duty they can joke and laugh like any of us old-timers and that reminds me, we had quite a time with the Annual Staff this years They wanted to place the faculty section next to the joke section but we had to draw the line somewhere. The Seniors wanted that corner for themselves. Now, don't think that the faculty is perfect because I know they have serious defects. The other day I accidentally heard of one of the extreme cases and shall tell it to you if you promise not to repeat it. One of our big men around school is a simply atrocious bridge player. He just can't get his mind on the game. I would not dare to breathe the name. Occasionally and always privately a perfect English vocabulary relaxes into the crudest of slang and we are badly shocked. Sometimes with a flash of their inner selves they innocently recommend a certain movie, and at school socials we are often compelled to stand aside while these sober classroom slave-drivers cut capers with which we would not dare attempt to compete. . . In spite of some of these faults, they are our friends, fair, helping and always ready to do. their duty. I really don't mean to be preachy 'cause I never expect to be a teacher. However, they deserve unlimited credit for having been able to bear up under our ignorance, playful tricks and dumb questions, don't they? Whenever I think of the faculty as an asset to mankind, I also think of Shakes- peare. He did not have a faculty to oppress him and the result-great works of art. I shall not go into that for I'm afraid someone will get into trouble and besides, Shakespeare was the one case out of ten. Anyway, here's hoping that some day we shall think back and be able to say-truthfully, All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my dem' teachers. ' Prrge Fifteen
