' THE SUTHERLAND a I I'HE SUTHERLAND'S ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE STANDARDIZATION OF P. H. S. The Sutherland'l Staff encourages the student body and faculty in its work. the standardization of Proctor High School, and sincerely hopes that the townspeople will lend its sup- port to this most worthy cause. The standardization of Proctor High School will be a great honor and much prized goal. At present there are only three standard high schools in Vermont in equipment. teach- ing staffs, and students. We must make Proctor High School the fourth. Let's go, High School, Faculty, and Townspeople and keep flying our motto. Proctofs Spirit Canlt be Beat. + In retiring from our offices, we the 1925-1926 staff, hope that these suggestions may be accepted for the 1926-1927 editorial platform. Further establishment of a permanent 'lSutherIand fund. As the price of our advertising is the lowest in the state, a slight increase. A reduction of the price per copy. More subscriptions. Another issue each school year. Latin and French departments. A section of the school paper at the disposal of the Stu- dents' Association. 739591999 $0? + STUDENTSl ASSOCIATION The Students' Association having completed the first year of its career has brought the students into a closer relation- ship and has carried out many very important matters such as: Better control of school finance. Election of School Auditors. Purchase of student property. Addition of several amendments to the constitution. Point system for school offices. lFor tryout 1926-1927l. More interest in the care of school property. Although many matters have been carried out by the As- soeiation. the work has hardly been begun. In leaving Proctor High School we should like to see the work carried on with as much enthusiasm and effort as it has been throughout this past school year. .53?wa?
