I II E C E S T II II I A K !i Here are those indispensable men, without whose patient service, many of our activities could not be held. When not tending his flowers, you may find our Mr. Muller by the river with his rod and line.

Mrs. Lass is that jolly janitress whose good nature and generosity are shown as she offers to make the girls’ costumes each year at Rock Rivalry. [13]
