required endowment. Now it has
that and is well among toward ano-
ther half million for new dormi-
tory, administration, gymnasium
buildings. DR.. G. T. Gillespie left
here Is years ago to become its pres
ident. The high standing already at
tanned and the further prospective
improvements are magnificent testi-
mony of the superb planning.
The High School Graduating Gloss
was entertained at lunch by the Ro-
tary Club last Friday (5-17-46). Sup
erintendent Kenna praises the class
highly for having no less than eight
members, girls, who have averaged
90 or better over the four years in
High School. Ears to Kenna and eyes
on the girls and it's plain the class
has beauty and Brains. So good is
the class that two are tied for vale
dictorian-Edith Herring and Patri-
cia Scobey--each having four year
average Of 95.5, so there is no Salu-
