Miss Blair Miss Blair has been the teacher in Study I since Mrs. Knote took Miss Jordan ' s place. She had been a stu- dent at Oberlin, but came home for a rest (?). We probably will not have her with us next year, as she plans to return to Oberlin. Mr. Fairchii.i) Mathematics is the paradise of this member of our faculty, who has hon- ored us by remaining with us during the past two years. And, without doubt, in the near future, we will realize that we have not appreciated his untiring efforts and wise counsel, though we can say that all he has said has not been in vain. Mrs. Knote Mrs. Knote came to us in January to supervise Study 9, but shortly after her arrival took Miss Jordan ' s History classes when the latter was obliged to leave school. We all like her very much. Mr. Leedy Mr. Leedy is one of the jolliest members of the faculty. He ' s a grad- uate of the Ohio Wesleyan Univesity and he conducts the Young Idea through the intracies of Civics. He also teaches Economics, Sociology, American History and Freshman English. Miss Moore Every one knows little Miss Moore. To some of us the remembrance of Freshman Algebra will always bring back the picture of Miss Moore, pat- ting back her cuffs and saying, Now, children — .

This is quite some task, but if the instruc- tions of the teacher are in any way reflected by the pupils we surely can endorse her for a higher position. Mr. F. M. Foster Our Coach. Teaches Geometry dur- ing school hours. He is a graduate of O. W. U. All the pupils like him, not only because of his fine teaching, but also because he is doing so much for M. H. S. Some of us think he would make a good psycholgy pro- fessor. Miss Waring Miss Waring went to Allegheny. This is the first year she has taught here, although she is a graduate of M. H. S. She teaches General Science. Her talent along histrionic lines is evidenced by the brilliant presenta- tion of the Junior play, The Regen- eration of Aunt Mary. Mr. Roush Mr. Roush is one of the new teach- ers this year. He teaches penman- ship, and we hear he can write back- ward, forward, and upside down, and make anything from a rooster to a coat of arms of it. Mrs. Chase Last year, shortly after Mrs. Chase came to teach First Year Latin and Caesar, we noticed that she was never separated from her leather hand-bag. We have begun to suspect that she doesn ' t mind being teased and is really proud of her hobby, for the bag has stuck with her continually. 16

The Faculty Although a number of teachers did not return to us last fall, we, while we missed them, very heartily welcomed those who took their places. Our new teachers fitted themselves into the working of the school with all ease and whenever called upon to help in any school enterprise, willingly agreed, and with their new ideas aided greatly in making annual events new and novel for those interested. After the middle of the year, the organization of the teachers submitted a salary schedule more appropriate to their needs and this will, if adopted, we hope, aid greatly in keeping a permanent staff of teachers here and thereby raise the standard of Mans- field High to the same plane of excellence on which it stands in all other respects.
