The tact that we are ranked as a Class A school in the North Central Association proves the excellent supervision of these workers. To have the rank of A our teachers are required to have a BA degree or one equal to it. Our library must have a certain quota of books, and many other exacting specifications are made. It is the intention of our school board to give us the best of instructors, course, and equip- ment. They give their time whole heartedly and without any compensation whatsoever except the joy they receive from serving the youth ot their community. To these untiring workers ot our democracy at Chrisman, we express the deepest gratitude. P.T.A. meeting, December 10 PARENT TEACHERS ASSOCIATION The P. T.

I it l I i V ll l JUDICIAL 'ki' Our Supreme Court BOARD OF EDUCATION--The very foundation of a successful democracy is a Wise judicial body. ln our government at Chrisman the Board of Education serves as the Supreme Court. To this group of men and Women are brought all the difficulties which arise in school legis- lation. Each school activity must be consented to by them before it becomes constitutional The vast responsibility carried by this group can only be realized by considering the number of students in each of the twelve schools of Independence. The inf l tellectual growth of each of these students is directly in- fluenced by the organization which the school board W plomgllthough the board does not have to collect the money which is used for the schools, all of it must be properly distributed by them. Each department is con- stantly asking for equipment and it is the boards desire to have as modern equipment as pos- sible. A system which hires over 150 teachers is a large concern and to have only six people as its judicial body places a large responsibility on each one. We are fortunate in having on our board these members: president, Mr. lohn W. Luff, Who is vice-president of the Independence Foundry, secretary, Mr. lohn Hinde, Who. is in the insurance business, Mrs. Adron Randall, a former teacher in lndepenclencey Mr. Fleming Pen- Mr. lohn W.

JUDICIAL fi' -Our Chief Iustices THE CHALLENGE TO YOUTH The national emergency for defense of this great country of ours calls upon each of us to give all for the defense of our democratic way of life. Our way of life is ever changing to meet the new order of the world. This was intended by the makers of that great document, the constitution. The red, white, and blue shall never change but always be our , symbol of free government. In accord- ance with our period in the march of time, let us streamline our ways, thoughts, and . attitudes. To each individual there is a challenge to make the changes necessary to meet the requirements for a good citizen of our country. Those youth of today who are work- ing through high school and college will Superintendent W' EA Mmthews be taking their places in the management of the affairs of our country when peace ' comes. Greater effort must be put forth for the success of the coming peace than was exerted during the past two decades. We have duties and responsibilities as the price or tax for those loved ideals of the American Home and Government. May we be a credit to our stern forefathers in performing our share. I be- lieve that for us great emphasis should be placed on our conduct and actions as a p epara tion for the days of reconstruction In so fCiI CIS each 11'1Cfl1V1d.LlCIl keeps l'11S CIIl1lU.d.SS Office of Superintendent Matthews and his part in the affairs of our country in order so the success or failure of our democracy will be measured W E MATTHEWS 7- I as all ' F lglilfftf 62 t if Q, if WN ' T - I . . .
