,. ...-,i, ...? i i The jfatultp The Faculty! At the mention of these awful words, dear reader, unless you are somewhat out of the ordinary class of students, you conjure up to your mind's eye visions of red D's and F's and loads of homework, you remember Hbawl- ing outs, such as: 'fWhere were you sixth period yesterday, John? Oh, you were, were you? Who excused you? No one! Now see here, young man, if this thing happens just once more, l'll take the matter up with Miss Bednarug and a feeling of misery and a mad desire for vengeance arise in your bosom. Is it not so? But did it ever occur to you that the faculty really exists for a serious purpose, and that that purpose is to help you, not to make you miserable? And did you ever stop to consider the fact that it is just barely possible that you, yourself, are some- times at fault, and not always the teachers? Let us be more broad-minded, more reasonable. Let us not be so small as to discredit the unselfish service which our faculty are performing for us, the service of devoting their lives to the difficult and discouraging task of implanting knowledge and sense in our heads and a determina- tion to lead wholesome, successful lives in our hearts. And surely the faculty of Parker deserve great credit for the efficient and, on the Whole, successful manner in which they discharge this trying duty. We may be sure that, when they seem to fail, it is usually true that the students are much more to blame than the teachers. They are thoroughly acquainted with the studies which thev teach and with the best modern methods of giving instruction in them. And many, many times do they go the second mileg they not only teach their classes faithfully and well, but they are glad to give special help to those who find it dif- ficult to keep up with their work. And, when you get under their skins a little, our Parker teachers are delight- fully human. Being human, they have their faults, but they also are endowed with a sympathy for the trials and troubles of their pupils, with a desire to be just and reasonable, and best of all, with a sense of humor which keeps recitations interest? ing and helps things to move smoothly. The result of this human spirit in our faculty has been to make Parker High School unique in several important respects. There is a refreshing spirit of friend- lines between faculty and student body, manifested by the absence of formality which exists in class room and corridor. Then, too, a certain mutual confidence, between teachers and pupils serves to clarify the atmosphere of the school by doing away with many of the rules and regulations which would otherwise be necessary. How much better it is to have such a spirit of freedom in the school-freedom of action, and freedom of expression in giving both helpful criticism and merited praise-than to allow the atmosphere to become strained and formal! And it is owing largely to the teachers that this happy state of affairs exists. A The friendship between faculty and pupils is manifested most clearly, per- haps in the splendid co-operation which the teachers give to the pupils in supporting all school activities,-athletics, clubs, and entertainments. The success ,which Parker has attained in these respects would hardly have been possible without this aid from our faculty. And so we, the Class of 1919, wish to leave a parting word of advice to the lowerclassmen. It is this: strive to help our faculty at Parker in accomplishing Page 16 A 4, ,,
