N v 'UQ AS the Cbe 'Faculty B September 5, the time honoredlbell-which is such a terror to the tardy student, and causes Mr. Hines so much consternation when he can't dis- tinguish whether it is sounded for fire drill or class dismissal-tolled the fatal hour when all high school students must awaken from the blissful dreams of a long peaceful vacation, and reenter that well worn path which leads to the city of big things. hands of the clock on the south wall pointed to eight-thirty, we, the faculty, headed by Mr. Williams, the principle, marched meekly upon the rostrom and took our seats, relentlessly exposed to the merciless stares of 240 students who were craning their necks to get a good look at the new rulers Kas Virgil Woods de- fined the word Facultyl. ,A . Perhaps the strongest impression that they received that morning was concern- ing our extreme youth, since none of us are over thirty-live. They soon found, however, that we were not weak, at least in vocal powers. CFor proof register for one of Miss Kramer's classes, or Mother?' Draves' Lady of the Lake.D We have one teacher on the Faculty who is always right CWrightJ as the Latin pupils will aiiirm without hesitation. ' i Several of our number have taken up activities outside of their regular class- room work. Miss Thompson coached the girls' Basket Ball -teams with much success. Mr. Hines took charge of the boys' athletics along the lines of football, basket ball and base ball. Mr. Williams, in addition to his classes in,Physics, and his duties as prin- cipal, drilled the debating teams, and is at present superintending the track work. Miss Sievers, The Junior's Queen, has spent the year proving to the upper classmen the truth of the quotation, In poetry lies the soul of the whole past time. We have greatly regretted the loss of Miss Beam, who was compelled to return home because of ill health., Miss Edson has taken time from her busy life to organize a much needed Glee Club from the students of her music class. With extraordinary vim and enthusiasm, Miss Hunter has been giving instruction in that history Which stands upon the pedestal of Time and gazes into the archives of the Past. i Fraulein Kramer has worked patiently with her pupils instructing them in the literature of two languages. Miss Cunningham, a very proficient teacher in Geometry, is still puzzling her brain over theqliving' problems which come to her class each day. . The success which Miss Brown has attained in the- Domestic Science department was shown in the dinners which her girls served to the members of the Faculty and the School Board. A We have enjoyed meeting and working with the student body. We have enjoyed your parties, and your ball games, everything, in fact, except those cessions after 3: 30 which you so heartlessly thought were a pleasure to us. Since Nature, by putting eyes in the front of our heads, intended us to look for- ward instead of backward, we will say that those of us who shall return next year are looking forward with pleasant anticipation to a renewal of the associations which we have enjoyed with you during this school year.
