COMMENCEMENT NUMBER, 1V14 149 MISS ELDER SWANSON MISS EDITH BISBEE Dept, of Mathematics, 1912—1914 Commercial Dept., 1913—1914 THE FACULTY. Of the seven members of our high school faculty, whose pictures appear on this and preceding pages, including that of Mr. Bainum to whom this little volume is affectionately dedicated, only four will he with us next year. These four are Mr. Bainum, Mr. Messenger, Mr. Rogers and Miss Bisbee. Special mention, with appreciative comments, concerning the three who have resigned is made on another page of this number of the Reflector. We should have been glad indeed if all of our present corps of instructors could have remained with us another year; but, since that is not to he, we are looking forward to the coming of those who are to fill the vacant places with no little curiosity and interest. Miss Chipp’s position, that of English and Sewing, has already been filled by the election of Miss Mildred I'elmley, of Normal, 111. She i9 a daughter of President David Felmley of the Northern Illinois State Normal University, and is not only a graduate of that institution, but received the A. B. degree from the L. A. department of the University of Illinois in June, 1913. During the past year she has been taking a special post-graduate course in pedagogy, and in domestic science cporses at Normal. , Miss Felmley has had experience as an instructor of various classes in the University high school, and is highly recommended as a teacher of unusual ability and promise.

In other words, “Jack of all trades—and master of some.” However, Tub is a fusser and we must hand it to him.” He is a trifle too young to admire the ’’brunette” in the Faculty. “Oh, what’s the use of studying.” EDLA JOHNSON—“ED”— Have you not often been in a bit of woods near a rippling stream and listened to the wild birds sing their joyous songs’! Do not the rich full tones of the little songsters thrill you beyond words? On the day of her birth, Edla was endowed with the same richness of voice that these little birds possess, and now, she has become world-famous for her lovely ringing. “Oh, she will sing the savageness out of a bear.”
