Nevertheless with such odds, the class- rooms were filled each day. Students came back for more. As time passed impressions not only of subject matter but the char- acteristics of teachers were stamped upon the brains of those attending. In a quiet, gentle, and yet demanding Way Mrs. Ladu, Mrs. Peacock, Miss Strother, Miss Runnion, and Mrs. Fish got their orders obeyed. Nothing was ever out of place in the classroom of Mrs. Wooten, Mrs. Donovant, Mr. Clark or Mr. Beenen. While some found it frightening when it was over, it was always fun to look back on the classes of Miss Cogdell, Mrs. Shore, Mr. Brantley, and Miss McDearman. 'il SOCIAL SCIENCE.

One trait nearly all teachers had in common was that their's was the one and most important subject. A Their assign- ments showed that. The half hour time to be spent for preparation in each subject was not meant for one individual teacher. In biology one was not only to capture but to classify some little helpless insect according to kingdom and specie. The same was true of leaves or wild Bowers. A similar story could be told in English, language, social science or math. All the teachers held to one theory- promptness must be adhered to without hfail. Students must be in homeroom, re- port cards must be returned, deadline must be kept. They acted with one accord in bearing down. At times the demands seemed impossible. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT.

--- - W- - - The friendliness and the understanding were characteristics of classes in the rooms of Mr. Steed, Mr. Shealy, Mr. Smith, Mrs. Darden, Mrs. Swain, Miss Fulcher, Miss Penney and Mrs. Ehrlich. The fact that they were young in age, spirit, and outlook made the classes of Mrs. Snow, Mrs. LeFoy, Miss James, Mr. Robert Jones, Mr. Cutler, Mr. Royster, Miss Woodward, and Mrs. Dalheite stand apart. Some classes were different. The teach- ers made them so. Such was the work of Mr. Blakeway, Miss Ferando, Miss Shealy, Mrs. Freeman, Mr. Sonnwick, Mr. Craw- ford, Mr. Maddrey, Miss Shealy, and Mrs. Yates. Energy was never ending in Mrs. Smaltz, SCIENCE.
