THE FACULTY To those few unfortunates among our friends who arc not acquainted with these, our best friends, we m:ike this short introduction. They have led us unerringly through the four years of our High School life and have never failed to do what is best for our own good. At the present time we can only extend our heart felt thanks and hope that we can repay them in the future. Superintendent Faulkner, our chief executive for the past three years has fallen from grace as an oo la la instructor and has taken up the portraying of seven buckets of blood”. Mr. Campbell, our systematic principal, has some other interests besides catching up with our absences. He seems to be very much Interested in the town of Edmond. We hope that the rule of hiring unmarried teachers does not apply to the Principal. Miss Barbour is our standby Math teacher who has gained much fame as Hall cop. She deserves much praise for the way in which she acted as assistant principal during Mr. Campbell’s absence. Mrs. Johnson, who is in charge of the Normal Training Course, has been the success- ful sponsor of the Forensia Debating club for the last four years. She certainly has done her part in helping the club this year. Miss Gibson has taken up another kind of work besides her vocation of teaching History which Is training the Debating team. We are sorry she did not discover her talent along the line sooner. Mrs. Ryan Is a new member of the faculty. She took the place of Miss Butler in the Science Department and has carried on the work as well at it was begun. Mrs. Hicks has guided the Senior class through all their trials for two years with a smile. She might even undertake another play if Thomas Edison would provide a megaphone which she could use to keep the members of the cast together at play practice. Mrs. Langford is the teacher of the most popular subject in high school. English Literature. She doesn’t spend quite all her vacation thinking of punishment for the bad children because she says she went to the Arbuckles last summer and caught a fish. We think she must have dreamed It but it would be impossible to try to convince her. Mr. Watson has been with us a long time but we very seldom see him. he Is so busy making wood into something useful that he stays out In the Manual Training dei art- ment most of the time. Miss Ray Is that sweet English teacher who has been with us several years. She is doing a fine bit of work in making noble Seniors out of Juniors. Mr. Quiett dwells in the dungeon in the shape of a Physics Professor. We don’t hear much about him. however, as he more than lives up to his name. Miss Wickam is the new lady upon our faculty. She has not been with us long but we are sure that she is going to make brilliant debaters out of her Freshmen English Class. Miss Mitchell Is the Hic Haec Hoc” teacher and is very popular considering the subject she teaches. She wants the Seniors to have a banquet. Hurrah for Miss Mitchell. Miss Maple has been with us two years and we wish the coming students the same good luck we have experienced but a good looking teacher does not stay a teacher long. Miss Long is a very recent addition to our Commercial Department. We have not learned much about her yet except she has a lovely disposition. We hope to have her back next year. Mrs. Elmore has faithfully served her time in trying to instill knowledge into our dull minds. Her work In the Y. C. A. will never be forgotten. Mrs. Rutledge has been with us for two years and we hope this is not her last. Altlic igh she teaches Mathematics she specializes in study halls. Miss Misener. Glee Club and Orchestra: and Ben Parks. Band Director are both new members on the faculty. George Abbott. Athletic coach, will be with us next year. thirteen
