Jbfiss JXIary I. 27316110110 Wlien one stops to wonder how all of the myriad programs of Hirsch's pupils and teachers are satisfactorily interlocked, one realizes why Miss Malone, our assistant principal, is kept extremely busyg a-nd one suddenly understands the really remarkable extent of her eliiciency. In her sterner moments, she painlessly disposes of disciplinary problems presented by a few recalcitrant students. Harry Isbvrwoozl Mr. Isherwoodls quiet and reserved manner makes him the ideal treasurer. He stacks and banks all the pennies we bring to school for the Thanksgiving fund, the Red Cross roll-call, the dramas, and the rose and doughnut sales. Some of his time is devoted to ordering and issuing thousands of textbooks. As the unofficial dean of boys, he irons out masculine wrinkles. 12

Mrs. Kuehn, Mr. Nichelson's aide, has charge of his correspondence and of the school reports. Miss Conway, whose motto might well be I consider how their time is spent , takes charge of the records that come and go without ceasing. The daily business of the school is in the hands of Miss Reid, while Mrs. Stapleton of the mathematics department handles the registration of all befuddled new pupils. Assisting these is a staff of commercial students, who take care of the counter and switchboard, do filing, and carry messages fleetly and willingly. Qfiffencfance Office A new bane of the poor student's existence, the attendance office, has been established in room 133 by Mrs. Ethel Davison and Miss Ruth Cullen, who are assisted by several other teachers and twenty-Hve students. Here, on permanent file, is recorded a damning account of every student's tardiness and absence, from the most important senior to the most insignificant freshman. There are divers penalties that alight upon miscreants. There is no chance of a cut going undetected, for these ladies always get their man. By thus checking up on the students' irregularities, the office hopes that a more uniform attendance will result. Ifuzzf 1: Gills-ii. Miss lirofly Mzmwzlring Ilowe Schului' llzivismi Kurt' J.
