From his office in Batavia, Mr. Barber works for the betterment of the area schools. lt was he who introduced and initiated the idea of centralization to us. Showing a real interest in the students, he has made frequent visits to our school, has spoken to us in assembly, and enjoys listen- in to our problems. gfhe interest he has shown was demon- strated last year when he taught the English classes for a few days.
