school work. During her four years
in high school she was an honor stud
ent and won a scholarship to Geneva
College in Beaver Falls, Pa. But she
had always been interested in COM
mercial work and as this work was not
obtainable in Geneva College, she went
to Temple University.
At Temple, Miss Donate was inter-
ested in great many activities, par
ticularly debating. During her fourth
year she was president of Temple De-
bate Club. She left Temple after
four years with a Bachelor of Science
of Commerce degree.
She then went to work as a private
secretary, but not liking her job she
returned to Temple to take up grad
uate work and earn her teaching cred
it's. She studied this time for one and
one half years and left with a Master
of Science degree in Education.
Now being able to teach, Miss Do
nato accepted position in the Com
mercial Department of Pitman High
School, Pitman, N. j., for one year.
Since she has been teaching in Po-
comoke High School, the students have
found her to have a winning person
atty, lovely disposition, and an ex-
cellent sense of humor.
Not only is she interested in COM
mercial work but also in reading, cook
ing, dancing and travelling. II r.
This past summer she went abroad
and to Bermuda. She is expecting to
go to Mexico this coming summer and
says she intends to travel throughout
the whole world before her life is over.
STUDENT COUNCIL
There has been much enthusiasm
during the past week concerning the
Student Council.
Mr.. Krabill. the advisor, thought it
best to get this system organized as
soon as possible, so a meeting was
held Thursday, March II. Everyone
decided that the best thing to do first
was to elect officers to fill the var
ious positions. Earle Allen was elect
ed ice-President; Frances Small, Sec
rotary; and Jane Miller, Treasurer.
Many problems were brought up at
this meeting. After much discussion,
it was decided that at dismissal, both
at lunch time and after school, the
monitor system would be used exactly
as during the changing of classes.
This change has been made chiefly
to prevent pushing, showing and rum
ming in the halls and locker rooms.
Another important matter which was
discussed was what to do during the
lunch hour. 1t was decided to have
class basketball for those interested in
athletics, a room for dancing for those
who expect to attend the Junior-Sen-
ior prom this year, and the library
open to all those who wish to study.
Preparations are being made for var
ious games such as ping pong, pitching
horse shoes, bingo, fiddlesticks, ETC.,
for those interested in activities other
than those mentioned above. Also
committees have been appointed to
look after the home rooms and see
that no paper is on the floor, that
the curtains and the teachers desk
are kept in order. Last, but not least
committees have been appointed to
see that no one walks on the grass,
no paper is thrown there, etc.
Much is expected to be accomplished
with this new form of government. If
everyone cooperates there is posi-
bility that the Student Council will
grow into very profitable organiza-
ton.
