v-v HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS The smooth schedule that our modern school system demands is made possible largely through the efforts of our department heads. Their intelli- gence, ability, and efhciency enable them to plan and supervise the activities of their individual depart- ments as well as teach classes themselves. As department heads, these teachers have numer- ous responsibilities in connection with their de- partments. They must encourage the progress of their departments by studying the newest methods of education and seeing that they are practiced in the classroom. Guidance Work consumes much of their valuable timeg they help students to plan their school programs, and they give advice to pupils designed to aid them in planning for their futures. Recently, they took on another responsi- bility when they began advising and aiding the many ex-servicemen who have returned to school. CARL N. NUITBR CHARLES C. OLsoN W.
