MR. Dodd, Superintendent of School District 15, is an important factor in our high school. A school must he aide to adapt itself to ever-changing world conditions. It is Mr.Dodd’s responsibility to see that our curriculum meets these demands. By tlie addition of extra-curricular activities, and through the addition of new courses, especially in the Vocational School, he has succeeded in keeping Lawrence High in step with the times. When we say Mr. MacDonald is Lawrence High, Lawrencians know what we mean. For thiry-two years he has been our principal and during this time we have found a definite place for him in our hearts. Although very busy, he attends our proms, debates, school games, and plays. Largely through his efforts our sales of defense stamps and bonds have boomed. We feel that in our principal we have a friend who will listen to our problems and offer us sympathetic and understanding advice. Most students feel that Miss Teffl typifies what is known as the “square Lawrence V. Dodd deal”. As our assistant-principal the task of maintaining law and order in high school falls under her jurisdiction. It is in this respect that she demonstrates her keen sense of justice and fair play which have gained her the admiration of all Lawrencians. 9

Lyman Davison Mrs. Emma Horn Do you remember when you were just a little and somewhat bewildered freshman? Lawrence High School seemed so huge, and you were so small. There was that kind school marshal who took pity on you and decided to help you out. From the GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT you received a program card and were introduced to Mr. Davison, head of the department, and to his genial assistant, Mrs. Horn. To make things clearer, Mr. Davison took you aside and explained his work. “The Guidance Department aims to point out to students the many mediums of education and their inter-dependence in our modern society, so that the student may reach his full development with tlie opportunities at hand. We try to show him the importance not only of the mastery of subject matter, but also of the acquisition of proper health anil study habits, and of the ability to think logically and to select and use assembled material.” Mrs. Horn added at this time, “In addition to assisting with the educational planning of the students, we hope to stimulate the growth of group or community consciousness, to develop self-reliance, courtesy, sportsmanship, initiative, and a pleasing personality in every individual who should, in reality, secure these attributes for himself. Having a little more confidence in yourself, you went willingly with the marshal to meet the other faculty members of LawreiioL Knowing the importance of the LIBRARY to all students, his next step was to take you there. Miss Ice, our librarian, told you that we have about seven thousand hooks which include fiction and non-fiction. The names of such magazines as “Life”, “Fortune”, “The Atlantic Monthly”, and many others caught your eye. As a source of reading for pleasure and research, our library is indeed adequate. From the library you made your way to the ART DEPARTMENT where Mrs. Palmer explained that here stress was placed on the de velopment of individual talent through th. perspective and design courses offered. Man; of the bulletin board displays and posters sect in the village and in school as well as the ar work of the Law'rencian are contributed by this department. Our MUSIC DEPARTMENT headed by hand and orchestra director Mr. Beloof and choral leader Miss Carver needed no intro duction to you.
