One of the needs of a modern, up-to- date school was met in our system this year when a Guidance Counselor, Mr. Layton Matchulet Cpictured at rightl was appointed. Since then he has, on the bases of test results and personal conferences, helped the students plan their courses and activities according to a definite pattern with a vo- cational goal in sight. The fact that each student must some day take his place as a productive member of society is inescapable, and, for the good of the individual and society, the place that he takes should not be left haphazardly to chance,-but rather must be the result of guided foresight and planning. Counseling, too, by assisting each pupil to make elfective adiustments to his high school environment, also lays the basis tor helping him to adiust himself to any new situations in which he will live.
