sCThe Alarm a La Faculti f ANLIUS HIGH SCHOOL is proud of its group of students because of I I their brilliancy and high standard of grades; but How did they get I that way? There is but one answer—through the instruction, leading and guiding of our wonderful faculty. It is said that a river can rise no higher than its source, but surely, these rivers have a high source. With the exception of two teachers (Miss Williams and Miss Fields) we have the same faculty as last year. We still have the former in an indirect way for she is the main manager of one of our instructors. The two who take their places are Miss Mitchell and Miss Barr. Miss Mitchell exposes us to English and she will insist on making us study Shakespeare. She is also the domestic science teacher—which fact suggests a good chance for some young man in the community. Miss Barr teaches Freshmen English, Latin 1 and II and Ancient History. She, together with Miss Mitchell, has charge of the literary societies and under their guidance the quality of our programs is gradually improving. Miss McMorris teaches all the mathematics except bookkeeping. She also teaches Medieval and Modern History. To her it is that we owe the progress of our library. She has kept it well organized and well managed, and has made it a valuable asset of the school. The next in line is Mr. Anderson. He is an especial terror to the Seniors for he exposes them to the terrible tortures of bookkeeping. He is also the instructor for physics and general science. Another field in which he is successful is athletics; he has now been with the boys two years as their coach. Mr. Newburn is a member of the faculty who has been an especial aid to the Seniors. He is the one who has made possible the publishing of this wonderful book of memories. He has helped us in all our work on the annual and to him, we, the Seniors owe a great debt of appreciation. Also, because of him, we expect that this will be an even greater farming community than it is now, inhabited by scientific farmers, for he is the teacher of agriculture and farm mechanics. Last, but by no means least, is our principal and class advisor, Mr. Perry. We have had the pleasure of his help and advice during all the four years of our high school life. He has helped us in all we undertook to do and, in later years each member of the class of ’26 will surely remember him with a thankful heart. Besides being principal he teaches Civics, Economics and French II. As the years pass on all happenings of the past come back to us as pleasant memories and the Senior Class of this year will always think of their high school teachers with a feeling of pleasure and gratitude. We leave the school with the hope that classes that follow may be as fortunate as we have been in being under the leadership of capable teachers. Pago Eleven
