den Future homemakers as they draw up their plans and learn to bake a cake are busy at their respective jobs. Don't forget the baking powder is a familiar cry to these aspiring cooks. Touch, speed and ac- curacy become im- portant in operating these machines. Who would ever believe that cedar chests and lamps could be produced here and that perfect copies could be made by amateurs. 5 Me Qadjtoom . g..1.w

Ae FRIENDSH FRIENDSH I FRIENDSH Bertha and Wilto'n wonder what the results of this ex- periment will be. Awe med 0 den IP OF THE CLASSROOM The friendships created during our high school days are part of that destiny which shaped our lives. As we worked over a chemistry experiment, prepared a town hall discussion or struggled over a translation, together, many sides of our classmates were revealed and perhaps a lasting friendship resulted. Our teachers, as they led us on to discover new experiences were aiding us in be- coming friends with them and perhaps later we will look on their influence as a potent force in our development. IP OF THE CLUBS By working together in clubs and organizations through- out the school, we have learned to admire the talents and abilities of other and have seen many worthwhile friendships established. Finding boys or girls whose in- terests were similar to our own stimulated us in our par- ticular activity. High moral standards qualities oi leadership, journalistic training and ability to create are some of the aims and purposes of our organizations. Association with people well trained in some particular field of endeavor may prove to become a lasting friendship. IP IN SPORTS It has been shown that athletics have played a par- ticular part in the formation of friendships. As other teams were encountered on the gridiron, basketball court, or track field we learned to admire the prowess oi others. Each individual on the team realized the importance of friendliness if his team worked together harmoniously and as a unit. Team play, cooperation and good sports- manship were stressed by all the athletic leaders and every participant realized the importance of these qualities if the best results were to be attained. Learn to play has been our motto.

'g6fl4fll?1l..'fZc'Z1ZLl.VZ an gl,QZZVl1'fl.l'l The endless stream of chattering voices of the hundreds of students who have graduated has long been silenced. Only faint echoes, the voice of the spirit of the youth of Verona, remain to represent it at the meet- ings of the Board of Education, where several Verona graduates are serving on this board. On the second Monday of every month these five citizens, chosen by the people of Verona to supervise the education of their children, assemble and transact the business of the school district. Subject to state regulations, the duties of the Board of Education are definitely outlined by a school code. Collectively, these duties concern the supervision of all school activities, finances, buildings, grounds, supplies and curriculum!all receive due consideration. At meetings of this group, vacancies are filled, resignations are accepted, taxes are levied and provisions are made for the purchase of books and school supplies. Through the efforts of these friends of education, school repairs have been made and in this manner the path of knowledge is made smoother and more accessible to the younger generation of Verona. Only the clamor of thronged corridors breaks the orderly and business like silence of the two offices located in the Junior and Senior High School buildings. In one Dr. J. W. C. Remaley, the supervising prin- cipal and Miss Blanche Lindemuth work together. In the other, Mr. Alfred Snyder faces the problems and duties of a high school principal. But their duties are not confined to the narrow limits of these offices. To these individuals, many intimate and individual problems of the students are brought. These men are efiiciently assisted, Dr. Remaley by Julia Maroni and Mr. Snyder by a corps of student office workers. Miss Blanche Lindemuth, who supervises the junior High, has been with us in Verona school for number of years and the school just wouldn't seem the same without her. She has been a great friend, as well as a teacher, to most of the students now in school and to many of the alumni. Thus with the combined efforts of these individuals as administrative heads, a school year moves along steadily and smoothly.
