TRUSTEE Luster H. Yager is serving the third year of his four-year term as trustee of Jefferson Township, hav- ing been elected in 1938. He is one of the school's most loyal supporters and is very popular among the stu- dents, teachers, and throughout the community. He has been a faithful and enthusiastic booster of the Cubs and Bears, never missing a game at any time. In like manner he is back of every school activity, and his willingness to serve the public, faithfully and well at all times, is one of his greatest attributes.

Education is not an expenseg it is an investment for life. Sta:
