Mary H. Brown B.S. Social Studies Head Dorothy A, Knill M.A. Social Studies I Maxine R. Ollman B.A. Social Studies Mildred Greenlee M.A. Social Studies Howard Q. Miller M.A. Social Studies Alice E. Walker M.A. Social Studies Charles E. Whitenack M.A. Social Studies Edith Whiting B.A. Social Studies Wllen asked what small and unimportant temptations she could not forbear, Miss Brown replied that she found that the extra candy bar at noon was a trivial attraction which was irresistible. In addition, she-has discovered that oftentimes she cannot refrain from making a pun. In answer to the same question, Miss Greenlee remarked that a nap after the alarm clock rings is a temptation which usually does not result in serious consequencesg she admitted also that on occasion she cannot turn down a second helping at the dinner table. Upon questioning Miss Knill in regard to her follies and foibles, it was found that she enjoys certain petty lux- uries which she cannot resist buying on sight. She men- tioned in particular that stationery, handkerchiefs, and per- fume entice her. Mr. Miller has evidently found a conveni- ent place for his pencil when it is not in use, for he has revealed that while working with both hands, he has acquired the habit of putting it in his mouth. Appetites seem to be a particularly vulnerable spot in which small temptations pre- sent themselves, for Miss Ollman acknowledges the fact that she cannot resist a glorious chocolate peanut sundae-with chocolate ice cream. Mr. Whitenack names apple pie and books the two things he cannot resist. He enjoys browsing through favorite books in the quiet of the library. Miss Whiting's insignificantweakness is an uncanny ability to postpone letter writing which is undoubtedly due to the fact that she does not like to write letters. 19 lN57ROL'7'0R5'

Edward Willett M.A.? Science tftln Military Service kj H. Keith Cady M.A. Science Thomas F. Crull B.A Science Herbert J. Max M.S. Science Louise Worley B.S. Science All the teachers grouped on each page of this section were asked to reply to the same question. Their answers were combined into the following revelations of West's instructors. Mr. Weber, when asked what his idea of a difficult or dis- agreeable task was, said that although many problems in science are difhcult, each presents a challengeg and the satis- faction on solving the problem compensates for any disagree- ableness that one might encounter. Concerning the more regular daily classwork, Mr. Cady finds that making out a fair examination and grading it accurately, often reading be- tween the lines to get an implied meaning, is a most difficult task. In connection with school work, Miss Campbell's most distasteful assignment is convincing students that each course has requirements which must be met in order for them to pass. Especially in the natural sciences, Mr. Horall believes that there are few unpleasant tasks. The work he considers interesting and if one is interested in it, the subject can be enjoyable. If, sometimes, the experiments run over for a long period of time, they may become tiresome but rarely un- pleasant. A task which must be done but one which Mr. Max naturally finds very disagreeable is making out the slips. This duty reminds a teacher that even after con- stant prodding, some students do not take advantage of an excellent high school education. Miss Worley does not like ironing clothes and finds that getting out of bed early in the morning is a very distasteful daily task. 18

Home Efonomics At the age of five Miss Nelson remembers causing the failure of a well-planned party given by her older sister for some friends. She had hidden the lunch, a platter of home- made fudge, under the blankets of her doll bed. One of the earliest happenings in Miss Boyd's life that she can remem- ber, was the time that her great-grandmother fell down the steps while carrying her' and became an invalid for life. Miss Kirby recollects an accident which befell her at the age of three. She tumbled from her bed and broke her collar bone with the result that she was forced totbecome left- handed while the bone healed. Mrs. Hiestand, at the tender age of two or three distinctly recalls being soundly spanked as a punishment for wringing the necks of two tiny chicks. One of Mrs. Shumate's most vivid memories of childhood schooldays was a trip to Madison, Wisconsin, to participate in the state contests in arithmetic and spelling. Although de- feated in spelling, she was awarded second place in arithmetic with a prize of three dollars. Some of Miss Ralston's earliest recollections are of minor details in the building of her family's new house. She remembers heaps of gravel, piles of lumber, scores of paint buckets and finally the day when she moved in. 20
