He has been a high school principal, public school superintendent, a college professor and a college dean. Besides this he has contributed to a number of educational periodicals and has built up an increasingly wide audience as a lecturer. He received his bachelor's degree at Greenville College in 1917, and the degree of Ph.D. at Columbia University in 1929. At various times he has also attended the University of Illinois, the University of Wisconsin, and Harvard University. Twice each year Dr. Chappelear has given talks before the assembly on a wide variety of subjects. His chief professional interest is the teaching of reading, a field in which he has had marked success in Macomb. He is also interested in stamp collecting and other hobbies. This spring Dr. Chappelear completes his sixth year as head of the Macomb Public Schools. It is with regret that we learn that he will not return next year, but we wish him the best of success in his new position. Loren E. Taylor, Principal Mr. Loren E.
