Emmons that we are able to have this new school building in which we can now pursue higher ideals. We wish to express the appreciation of the entire school and community for the efforts put forth by Mr. A. H. Ahara, Mr. W. H. Tupper. and Mr. E. B. Byrkit. They are true Misha- waka Men — who could see the need of this beautiful building and who were willing to take the risk and labor of the construc- tion of this magnificent edifice. Mr. Ahara has served on the Board since 1921. In 1923 he was elected president. Mr. Tupper, the secretary, has filled that position since 1923. Mr. E. B. Byrkit, treasurer, the oldest member of the Board, has been affiliated with the Board of Education since 1918. In the last few years the problem confronting the Board of Education has been the construction and equipment of the new addition to the Battell School and our New High School, to meet the demands of the increasing population of the city.

Carolyn Immel has proved herself very efficient in the new library. She has had many difficulties to overcome in making the school library a real working library, but it is fast becoming one of which we may be proud. Mrs. Shank has caught the real spirit of the position of Truant Officer. The presence of such a woman in the homes of these students is of great value. Carolyn Immel Mrs. Shank Eighteen
