HE condition of the schools in every community depends upon the ability, foresight, and interest of the individuals who compose the school board. Our community appreciates the services of the three excellent men who constitute this board. These men arc selected on a non-political basis and serve the community as a whole, without favorit- ism or personal bias. They are vitally interested in the progress of the schools and in community welfare. They are thoroughly conversant with business principles and are striving continuously to apply these principles to the conduct of the schools. The many improvements made in our school system in the past few months, without the necessity of increased taxes, is evidence of keen business insight. The smooth running of the school organi- zation, and of the system as a whole, is sufficient proof of their ability to apply business principles in school management. Appointment to the school board means opportunity for unselfish ser- vice to the youth and citizenship of our community. Each member of our board is keenly sensitive of this opportunity and trust. We honor them for their loyalty to duty, and their willingness to serve. G. C. Hokchkkdinc C. K. Loertz Halimi Thompson

Emerson Building HIS new grade building was completed September 10, 1927, and was formally dedicated on November 8, 1927. The purchase of the site was completed in November, 1926 at a cost of $8,500. The site consists of about 4 acres, and in addition to the building and play grounds, it includes a fine high school athletic field with improved track. The building was erected at a cost of approximately $52,000 and the equipment cost about $1,500 additional, making a total cost of building, equipment and site of approximately $62,000. The school board at that time consisted of G. C. Borchkrdinc, President Henry Koko.ce, Secretary C. E. LoERTZ, Treasurer Mr. Philip Bartlett of Indianapolis was the architect who drew plans and specifi- cations and supervised the letting of contracts and the construction of the building. W. J. Abraham was the general contractor, and was held responsible for entire construction. Joe M. Steele was given sub-contract for plumbing, Gus Taskcy sub- contract for brick work and Dan Albrich was given sub-contract for plastering. This building consists of seven class rooms, auditorium, gymnasium, office, work room, etc. It is strictly modern and practically fireproof. It is well located as to population trend, and availability and has been the means of relieving the conges- tion at the high school building, thereby giving opportunity for reorganization of the Junior High School department. This building is another evidence of the fore- sight and business ability of our school board. Much credit is also due the city council for splendid co-operation. • SiKwoltil Auiniot 1 by Kuliih Thoinpaoii,
