Board of Education R. K. CORKHILL Member To reach the highest success in any public capacity, one must rise above sordid and selfish motives and be inspired with ideals of service. This is particularly true of those who serve as school trustees. If they are looking for profit, there is none to be found here. But if they are looking for an opportunity to serve the community the field is unbounded. With this in mind we can say the Winslow school system is especially fortunate in the personnel of its Board of Education and its Superintendent of Schools. Mr. R. D. McGregor is the President of the Board. He is now in his third year, having served as member, as clerk and as President. His sendees during hio three years on the Board have been invaluable. Mr. E. F. Matthews is Clerk of the Board. He is an employe of the Santa Fe. However, he takes a vital and intelligent interest in education and finds time to devote to the services of the schools and to the children of the community. The third member of the Board is Mr. R. K. Corkhill, also an employe of the Santa Fe. He has been on the Board for several years and has seen our schools develop from a mere handful of children to our present modern school system. Knowing the past history of our schools, he naturally has the right perspective of their future. Thus he is in a position to render the most valuable service to the community. So we take off our hats to the Board of Education! It is composed of three honest, able, level-headed men. If we are fortunate in our Board of Education, we are no less fortunate in our Superintendent. Mr. Gammage’s record with us is that of Principal of the High School, and since 1923 that of Superintendent. A splendid record it is! Not often do we find a man who takes these successive steps in the same community. The high esteem in which he is held throughout the State is shown by the fact that he was recently elected a member of the State Board of Education, which consists of the President of the University, Presidents of the Teachers Colleges, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, one City Superintendent, and one County Superintendent.
