All of us are familiar with the sight of the matrons and the custodians working busily, but few of us ap- preciate the eflicient manner in which they take care of our school. Dolly', and her capable staff, and Scotty and his hard-working group keep Deering clean and shining and in tip-top shape. Because of them we can all be proud of the appearance of our school. Another group to whom we owe a debt of gratitude is the cafeteria staff and assistants. When the recess bell or the final bell rings, there is always a mad dash for the cafeteria, where these women and girls give us elli- cient service and excellent food. Have you ever tried their peanut butter cookies? Um-m-ml Left to right: Anna Dearborn, Mary Ellsworth, Gladys Roma, Edith Mars ton, Elizabeth MacBeth.
