LEVELING AGENTS OF OUR SCHOOL Kindness and Cooperafion Spell Efficiency The salvation of many a student is saved in the . willing help and advice of Miss Stoll and Mr. Strayer. It is Millie who aids in the office, substitutes in the class room and lends a hand . wherever it is needed. 'When everyone is busy and you need some advice or material in a hurry it is Millie who finds time to get it for you. Her patience is almost unbe- lievable. She is particularly appreciated by the mischief makers as her calm countenance serves to quiet fears of apprehension. Mr. Strayer is our technical adviserf, Mildred Stoll When a question of mechanics is in doubt Mr. Strayer gives us the answer. His management of the building is to be com- plimented. He provides us with clean, well ventilated classrooms which makes 'our work easier and more pleasant. Mr. Strayer's willing cooperation in all matters relating to school life is deeply appreciated. He is always where he is needed most and gives all in his power to further the interests of the school. These two persons con- tribute more than we re- alize to keep the wheels of the school running. - Laura Henry Mr. Strayer MONTPELIER SCHOOL REMEMBERED WITH MANY GIFTS The best portion of a good man's life is the unremembered acts of kindness and of love. XVe find that our school is still remem- bered and we sincerely appreciate the tokens which have been given to us. It is better to give than to receive,', and we know that the givers of these gifts are happy also. The Mother's Club presented the Bas- ket Ball girls with warm sweaters of the school colors, blue and white. The team is indeed pleased with them and the other girls now have an intense desire to be- come the owners of one of them. Again we recall that the Mother's Club added to the Domestic Science Depart- ment four large wooden trays for various purposes. Now we are prepared for Page Elerrn work! We are greatly indebted to Congress- man Kniffin of Napoleon for the pictures of George Washington, The Father of our Country, which now hang in our hall of knowledge. Mrs. N. G. Lash, a life-long supporter of Montpelier schools, never forgets the graduating class, and this year in her kind and gracious manner remembered each with an oil painting of the class flower. The class of 1933 express to Mrs. Lash their sincere appreciation. Mr. Riggard, our local photographer, has helped in a very large Way to dispel gloom and add beauty to our halls by presenting each year, a famed picture of the graduating class. These tokens fur- nish our visitors many happy moments. Dorothy Baveu
