48 WINNETKA TALK June 12, 1926 HELPED IN BIG WAR New Trier High School Sent Men, Money and an Ambulance to France; Has Gold Stars New Trier High school made an en- viable record during the World war. Not only did she send men to the front but also supplied an ambulance and driver and engaged actively in re- lief work. From the very beginning of the war in April, 1917, New Trier devoted her best energies to the defense of our country. When the armistice was signed, November 11, 1918, over 400 New Trier graduates and undergradu- ates were in the armed service of the government. Of all of them the school is justly proud. Meanwhile those remaining at school assumed the civilian burden of the war. Early in 1917, $2,200 was raised to send an ambulance and driver to France. Red Cross classes, under expert direc- tion, worked in the school. The girls organized groups for French and Belgium relief, and furthermore sent good cheer into American camps at home and overseas.

More- over, a large cadet corps was formed, which soon turned boys into the reg- ular government service. New Trier Heroes The war did not leave New Trier unscratched. Slowly the great service flag in the auditorium became dotted with gold, as battle and disease claimed their toll. To those twenty who nobly gave their lives, New Trier points with infinite pride, and it will cherish their sacred memory forever.

Reference and Research Work Stressed at N. T. To maintain a high standard of ef- ficiency, New Trier high school has created a department of reference and research.

Among its functions are to study school methods and collect and analyze statistics concerning New Trier, to place students in classes from which they will reveive the maximum amount of benefit and to assist teachers in the use of the best and most modern methods in classroom instruction.
