llliv liilcliffyv Tl-IE FACULTY For six years Mr. W. R. Ash has been the guiding genius of our schools. His untiring efforts, combined with infinite patience, tact and love of his work, have placed N. H. S. in the highest rank among schools of the state. Our jovial principal, Mr. Brillhart, has been with us five years. His sunny disposition and careful, conscientious work, have endeared him to all and have contributed much toward shaping the destinies of old N. H. S. A great stroke of luck returned Mr. Williams to N. H. S. this year. Always dependable and always working for the betterment of the schools, we owe a great deal to him for his interest in our many different activities. One of the newest departments of our school has been presided over successfully by Miss Abry for three years as the Domestic Science teacher. Her cheery manner in the class room makes even the darkest days seem sunny. As teacher of Manual Training, Mr. Menter has been with us since the opening of the department three years ago. He has made his department stand out as a great factor in the development and success of our schools. Just last year he resigned from the Bach- elor's club. As a teacher, Miss French is gentle, kind and convincing. As basketball coach of the girls she has proven her sterling ability. One of the former graduates returned to N. H. S. to teach. Miss Harrison has achieved success in teaching the secondary sciences in our school. Her work is proof that Napoleon High School does produce successful men and women. Although her services have only extended over one year, Miss Ely seems always to have been with usg she has smoothed out many rough places in our path, with a kindness and gentleness which places her high in the esteem of all who know her. It is to Mr. Mayeau that we owe the success of our football and boys' basketball teams. Through his hard work more battles have been Won this year than in any other one season. We are justly proud. Miss Spangler has been with us in some of our darkest hours, always comforting us and urging us on to better things. Through her efforts, the Latin club was organized which has proven a great bene- fit to all students in the Latin department. Our neighboring state, Michigan, has furnished us with one of our most charming and able teachers, Miss McComb. Under her guidance the English department for under classmen has been raised to new standards. Chemistry is now one of the most popular studies in the High school. The standards set by Mr. Tener, our former instructor, have been ably upheld by Mr. Secrist. He has also found time to work with the Boys' Glee club,-a thing which is much appreciated. Miss Rychener, who was put in charge of all the musical de- partments of N. H. S., has proven her ability. Her work with the Glee clubs in the presentation of the very successful operetta is es- pecially commendable. The keen insight and ability of our own Miss Whiteman have been an inspiration to everyone. For four years she has led our de- bate teams to victory. Her strong personality is indelibly stamped upon our school. Page Twelve
