THE FACULTY Mr. Woodbury, our Superintendent, guides the timid upper classmen through the mazes of Chemistry. So devoted are the students to this subject that it is hard to get them from the Chemistry recitation to their next class. Their favorite retreat is the lab. Mr. Woodbury is a strict task-master, but so kindly Is his manner of compelling their allegiance, that his students regret leaving his classes and gladly sign for another course under his able instruction. Miss Webster, our Principal, Ohio Wesleyn University, has charge of the English Department and Public Speaking. Theme reading is her chief occupation and topic sentences her delight while a new story plot is cause for a general celebration. As a means of recreation she coaches plays and debates; plans carnivals and class day programs and revises Senior orations. Miss Webster Is a firm believer in having plenty of things moving in order to keep the students busy and the school up-to-date. Miss Elizabeth Koslowsky, Michigan State Normal School, holds sway in the language Department. She is strenuously devoted to Carlyle’s Gospel of Work.” She endeavors to cross the word flunk” from the pupil’s dictionary, even tho he has to stay after school to accomplish the result. That her system is a good one is proved by the large number electing Latin and the small number of failures in that subject. The History Department is in charge of Mr. S. J. Coon, Beloit College. Special assignments and note books are Mr. Coon’s chief joy. The former vary from 3 to 90 pages, and the latter require a critical eye and an unwearied hand. If the student refuses to talk, or to linger in the halls, an assignment in history is on. In spite of the extra work required Mr. Coon’s classes are popular. Miss Ramp, Knox College, enjoys originals in Geometry. So do her pupils to judge by their fine demonstrations. No class in years has covered so much work, and in such a thorough manner as this Geometry Class. Of course, Miss Ramp teaches Algebra, Zoology and Botany and conducts field excursions and examinations and other things, but her heart is in Geometry. Miss Aller. Cosmopolitan Music School, has charge of the Music Department for the sixth consecutive year. Miss Aller adds to an excellent training in music, a thorough experience in teaching. Our only regret in this department is the limited time that can be devoted to it.
