Board of Education Our Board of Education is composed of these public-spirited men who give freely of their time, talents, and energy to keep our school operating smoothly. Many hours are required in organizing and maintaining efficiently a school plant the size of ours. Their meetings are held monthly, with special meetings being called as the need arises. Deciding matters of school policy, purchasing equipment and supplies, establishing a school bud- get. and planning for expansion of school facilities, are hut a few of the numerous problems that con- front them. We wish to take this opportunity to express our heart-felt thanks for all that they have done in our behalf. 9

Principals Message In composing a brief message to be included in this year’s yearbook two things stand out: its theme, “School Life”; and that it is dedicated to you, the student body. The ultimate success or failure of any enterprise—such as a school, a business, a government—de- pends entirely upon the people who are involved. Hence, the success of our school can be traced directly to you, our student body. What more need be said than that we, the faculty and citizens of this district, want to express our appre- ciation to you, the student body, for your fine spirit, co-operation and work in be- half of your school and to express the hope that you will and have enjoyed the theme of this yearbook to the fullest. 8

Experienced Hands Direct Our School Mr. L. D. Murray Principal Illinois State Normal, B.Ed. University of Illinois, M.S. Mr. Murray, our able principal, has a day-in-day-out job. His is perhaps the greatest task of all, that of running a school of 850 students. He listens to the complaints and suggestions of the students and teachers. Every other week he meets with the School Board to talk over these difficulties and to try to improve our curriculum in order to make it more suitable for everyone. Mrs. Vangine Meredith Dean of Girls Bradley University, M.A. Illinois State Normal, B.Ed. Everyone knows Mrs. Meredith, the Dean of Girls at Limestone. She docs an excellent job of counseling the girls whenever they come to her for help. She also works with the Student Council and has a hand in planning the activities which are presented through- out the year. As anyone can see, she has a tight schedule, and it takes a “wonder-woman” to keep up her pace. Mr. Frank Leach Assistant Principal Illinois Wesleyan, B.S. University of Illinois, M.S. Mr. Leach, Dean of Boys, assistant principal, counselor, and friend, is a person well-known to most L.C.H.S. students. His duties are many and his day long and busy. It is his familiar voice that we hear each morning and evening, as he makes the an- nouncements for the day. Limestone is indeed for- tunate to have such a capable and devoted man on its faculty. 10
