Leadership Demands Mrs. Rojane Gilmore, the superintendent’s sec- retary, reflects energy and ability to all office visitors. Courage and Strength Mr. Ernest Dr)' became Superin- tendent of the Madill Public Schools this past summer. He came to this of- fice after serving as Madill Junior High School principal for one year. His teaching and administrative career has been in Oklahoma and New Mexico. Mr. Dry believes that education is one of the most dynamic services offered by the government to its people. The chal- lenge of the individual teacher is a great one, in that it molds the child into the citizen of tomorrow. He be- lieves that the student’s responsibility .is as great, in that today’s youth must be provided the leadership and courage needed in the future. With these two concepts in mind, Mr. Ernest Dry works constantly to see that our community, state, and nation will reap the benefit of the educational activities of the Ma- dill Public Schools. Mr. Ernest Dry, Superintendent of the Madill Schools, meets the heavy demands of his responsibility.

Administration and Faculty . . . hand and mind can use the toots they get.” —Stephen Vincent Benet The administration and faculty of Madill High School realize that a little assistance can go a long way. A kind word, a pleasant gesture, encourage- ment or criticism all combine to help make better citizens. In this Atomic Age too few people are willing to give their time to offer guidance to those seek- ing it. Here with us at M.H.S. is someone who is always ready to listen to our problems and counsel with us. This volume will be stored in libraries • for decades to come. Let those who read this now and in the future know that our education was earned by the application and guidance of Madill High School’s administration and faculty.
