Ga- lanie a good background in the French which he teaches. Stories of France and Paris, gained from her years of living abroad, help to make llliss Hiatt's classes and the French Club, which she supervises, interesting. llfliss lllclllillan, with her knowledge of French and Latin, when she came last year to High School from Harding Junior High, made a valuable addition to the language department. lYIiss Kelnerls days of teaching in Lakewood High School date from the time when the school was located in what is now Wilson School. She has charge of the Honor Society. One of Miss Kelner's former Latin students is Miss Hum- phreys, teacher of Latin and French and adviser to the senior girls. Under llliss Wheatley many have followed Caesar across the Rhine, helped Cicero defeat the conspiring Catalineg and sailed with Aeneas to found Latium. lllr. Paine heads the Spanish department, popular because of its combined classical and business values. The other Spanish teachers are Miss Coates and Mr. Hes- kamp. The three co-operate in supervising the Spanish Club and E1 Boletin Casual, the Spanish student publication. The commercial department is headed by lN'Ir. Buckstaff, who teaches the special salesmanship and business law courses and serves as faculty business adviser to the High Times. lXIiss Black- burn, teacher of shorthand and typewriting, teaches many the elements that will make good stenographers and private secretaries. lllem- bers of Rflr. A. E. Cook's bookkeeping classes, if not destined to be C. P. A.'s, at least will know where to enter mousetraps in the family budget. He has been, for several years, faculty business adviser to the Cinema. In regular classes llliss Engle is teacher of shorthand and typing, but out of school she sponsors the new Girls' Avia- tion Club, whose members learn of the newest mode of transportation. lllr. Petersen teaches bookkeeping and accounting, but most of the school knows him as coach of lightweight foot- hall. In office practice classes, Miss Powell is boss of thirty girls and still general favorite among themg but she would be. Mr. Powell knows all the shorthand wordsignsg and aims, by

Galanie which has won championships since nobody re- members when. lllore than a quarter of a century's service in the schools of Lakewood is lllr. Gates' record. For those many years the head of the mathematics department has been finding x's, making tangents and cotangents, secants and cosecants, and help- ing to mold lives. lllr. Bixler this year adds sev- eral hundred more to the legion of seniors to whom he has been adviser and home room teacher. A small, friendly man with a vast knowledge of angles, triangles and rectangles, lines, sines and signs, is lllr. Garner. Perhaps foreboding to the girls is lXIiss Hobson, nevertheless, mercy tem- pers justice in ber duties as girls' attendance ofiicer. Besides his classes, lX'lr. Siggins also has charge of the blath Club, in which magic squares and cubes, arithmetical inconsistencies and such- like are considered. llliss Smith has had charge of Community Fund and charity collections this year. Though he does not seem unduly inquisitive, nevertheless, lllr. Jessup, head of our history de- partment, knows what almost everyone of impor- tance has done from pre-Adamite creation on down. He directs the operation of our new talkie equipment. Miss Dawson's teaching in Bible history includes enlightening discussions of the Pentateuch, the Decalogue, and the Apoca- lypse. Miss Emery supervises a home room of senior girls, discourses history, chaperons dances, and makes friends. lllr. Holdren each year does a fine job as chairman of the Honor Day cere- monies. From his desk inside the main entrance, Klr. Huffman dispenses tickets for the whole gamut of Lakewood games, permits and assorted wisdom, economics and history. Another savant and pedant of history and civics is llliss Van Fleet, who can probably tell on what pension the third assistant pressman of the Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing will be retired after serving thirty-seven years. lllr. Eberle, head of the French and German departments, could order a meal with ease even on a cannibal islandg he can converse in virtually any tongue except Icelandic. He sponsors the German Club. Herr Doering teaches most of the German classes. He is faculty adviser to the Spurs' and Rifle Clubs. Work as a seaman on a boat touch-

U'ren teaches, among other things, accounting: the record of last year's baseball team, which he coached, shows he taught them to tally big totals. The majority of the boys graduated will obtain work connected with manufacturing. All phases of making articles, from designing the plans to finishing the product, are treated by our technical department, headed by lllr. lXIcCloskey. lXIr. Borofka teaches foundry, the actual casting of iron objects. This class greatly resembles a steel mill, when molten metal from the cupola furnace is being poured. Fine work is done in lXIr. Coc- kayne's pattern making and wood working classes. lllr. A. K. Cook instructs in all the various tech- nical subjectsg he teaches the special auto mechan- ics class. lNIr. Doty has charge of the machine shop and metal working classes, Which make everything from brads to crankshafts. Printing classes and the production of our three publications have been for many years under lllr. Champion. Girls, too, must prepare for the future. The home economics department paves the way both for homemaking and for interior decorating, dietetics,-dressmaking, and nursing. llliss Rliller heads the department. lyliss Campbell may often be found cutting out a pattern, basting a hem, fitting a dress-always helping. lyliss Comers is in charge of the Home Economics Club, which often entertains members of the faculty and out- side guests with a party in the model suite. Any- almost any-girl can follow a recipe and obtain an edible dish, but it takes Bliss Downing, in cooking class, to show her how to add that extra dab which makes it a creditable dish. hliss lXler- rills, who Came this year to High School from Emerson, has already made many friends. While all the rest of the faculty prepares mental food for the students, lNIiss Betts alone cares for their physical sustenance, and as they gobbled Thanks- giving turkey and munched Christmas plum pud- ding, they admitted she does it well. The art department consists of llliss Garra- brant Cheadj, lVIiss Barkley, and lylrs. Rash. Yearly productions, ranging from Christmas cards to scenery for plays and operettas, are designed,
