Dumas Mrs. Lane TAyYLor The Board of Trustees is made up of seven members and presided over by Bishop Jones. It is a policy making group that determines the correct procedure to follow in decisions of great importance. For example, the building and enlargement of the Elliott School and the buying of Senior house were questions decided upon by the board. Besides being a policy making group, it controls the finances of the school, but it has nothing to do with the administration of the school. The Board maintains an even balance between the school itself and the parents, and is always open to suggestions. Its members meet informally about six times a year, but there is no set schedule for meetings. Instead, when the need arises, the board meets to settle the question. To this Board of friendly advisors come the many vexing problems of a school, and with skill and care our Trustees consider these problems and decide on their answers. Betry Carter PAGE 6 Mr. J.

food Hiss Katharine Lee Heap Mistress Miss Lee is the administrative head of our school. She directs the organization and the policies, selects the teachers, and interprets the school to other schools and to the community. In every phase of school life her personal interest is felt — in Capers-Elliott games, class activities, student government, even in the parties for the various clubs or groups. Her goal is a democratic spirit throughout the school, and any unfair clique ceases to be. She has a strong moral and spiritual force which every one of us feels. And when we have gone to college, her spirit will remain with us as a guide to the good. Betty Carter PAGE 5
