Qaiyiaian nial Training class was organized in the fall of l!)i;?. The eight years of faithf 1 and unselfish service rendered to our schools hy Mr. Evans will always stand as a fitting tribute to his memory. In 1914 J. A. Jeffries became superintendent and for two years directed our schools. The first Domestic Science class was organized in 1!)14 with Miss Louise Blair as teacher. J. A. Glover, w ' ho taught in the High School from IHi:? to IDIT, was for three years principal of the High School. In the fall of 1916 W. W. Curfman l)pcame surerintendent. By his lersonal zeal and energy he aroused a fine school spirit. At present (1923) he is assistant superintendent of the city schools of Lincoln, Nebraska. The year, 191S, marks an important epoch in our school ' s history, for it was then that the fine new High School building was completed. It is a strictly modern school plant and stands as a fitting monument to the progressive school spirit of our community. In 1919 Mr. F. J. Cline was next chosen to direct our schools and in this capac- ity served two years. During Ir. Cline ' s first year Miss Edith Campbell was suc- ceeded by Miss Edna Young and during his second term Miss Young was succeeded by Miss Leontine Chaney as principal of the High School. Prof. R. D. Williams, an over-seas veteran of the Vorld War. was our next superintendent, serving during the school year of 1921-22. By his congenial nature and his ability as an organizer and educator he immediately won universal confidence, friendship and esteem. His untimely death shrouded our little city in sorrow and deprived it of its most beloved citizen. The Memorial Page of this Annual bespeaks. in a most fitting manner, the place which he held in the hearts of the people whom he so briefly, yet so nobly, served. In less than two weeks of the opening of our schools in the fall of 1922 the school board selected W. O. Stark, of Emporia, to fill the office of superintendent, left vacant by the death of Prof. Williams. The wisdom of their choice was clearly- seen from the beginning. His pleasing personality and his ability as a school man have already won for him a lasting place in our school ' s history. The names of the present members of the High School faculty and a summary of the excellent work done by the department under the dirction of each, are found elsewhere in The Quivirian . Thus reads the brief and incomplete summary of the forty-three years of our school ' s history. Its students and graduates are nobly answering every call of modern life from the desk to the forge, from the pulpit to the battle-field, and it is into their hands that we, of the present generation, will soon commend its care and keeping. May they be inspired by the devotion and sacrifice of those who have gone before to strive toward even greater and grander achievements. PAGE EIGHT
