School Board-L. to R: R. Vaughan, C. Superintendent- ilard, F. Henry, L. R. Johnson, C. E. Willard. erce County Treasurer, P. lie-nton, Principal- A Riddell, E. Hanson. Arne Strand. Kdministration In carrying out our theme of Building, we cannot overlook the important part played by the administration. The administration and its policies and decisions affect building in both its senses-the material building of Sumner High School, and in the building of our personalities and character.. The development and building of our personalities is a direct result of the administra- tion's actions. The teachers they hire, the rules they establish, and the supplies they provide for us to work with are all part of our school life and our resultant usefulness as citizens of our community. In a more material sense, the great recent development and building program in Sumner's schools is evident of the administrations efforts. The beautiful and func- tional new Maplelawn School and the new high school shop building are the completed steps in this :building program. The much-needed, and long-awaited new gymnasium- music building now in the process of erection is another step in this program of expan- sion. A preview of the future shows a new athletic field, and addition to the Maplelawn School, continued renovation of the Wade Calavan School, the Junior High School, and the High School, and eventually a new high school. We, the students of the Sumner schools, have much for which we can thank our ad- ministration-the school board, superintendent, and principal. They are engaged in a two-fold building program-building a modern educa- tional plant and thus taking an important part in our build-ing.

Four Dedication This year, after thirty years of service, Sumner High School and this community lose an outstanding teacher, a wise and understanding coun- sellor, and a beloved friend. Our Miss Poole has been all these things, and more, to over 2,000 Sumner High School students. First, she is a fine teacher. Rather than being satisfied with just teaching the rules of English, she made the subject interesting and vivid. She has introduced us to new magazines, helped improve our vocabularies, taught us to better express our thoughts on paper, and has opened new vistas to us in our heritage of English literature. But besides these scholastic benefits and the work she has done as Senior class advisor she has symbolized for us other invaluable teachings. She has taught us to get the most out of life, to understand ourselves and each other. She has helped mold our per- sonalities and characters and has showed us the worth of honesty and integrity. But she does not forget a student once he graduates. En- dearing her even more to those who know her are many of her other selfless activities, such as knitting bibs and bootees for graduates' babies, her correspondence with former students, especially those in the service: the personal letter she writes each graduating senior, and her sincere in- terest in any and all of her many friends. For all these reasons, because she is a truly fine woman and a model for each one of us, for just being her own wonderful self, we of the staff dedicate the 1954 Spartan with loving best wishes to Florence Poole Dollery.
