Clark Wymote TREASURER .... Robert Cay ADVISER .... Miss Shanahan Ottumwa High welcomes the class of 1913, extending greetings to each member and to its newly elected officers. We upper classmen realize that these very Freshmen, young and inexperienced as they seem to us now. will be taking our places all tco soon. They will be the heroes of football and basketball, the dramatic stars, the outstanding musicians, and the officers of the various clubs. High School years may and should be the most profitable and pleasant of a student's life, but each must do his part to make them so. Serious study from the start makes each course easier. Every Freshman should take part in extra-curricular activities as soon as opportunity permits, not waiting until the sophomore or junior years. Under the sympathetic and efficient guidance of the Freshman adviser. Miss Esther Stranahan. and with the co-operation of all students, the class of 1943 is sure to make a tine record for itself and for Ottumwa High. Page twenty TH6 1940 ARGUS

The cafeteria is really one of the most important establishments of our high school. It is capably managed by Mrs. Thompson, who is assisted by Mrs. Bottorf and several students. Over two hun- dred meals are served each noon to students and teachers who find it inconvenient to go home for lunch. The menus are varied, and the food is wholesome and reasonably priced. The cafeteria is also used by the students who bring their own lunches. Students often patronize it before advisory period when they like to get candy bars or cokes. To perform greater service to the school, it is run on a non- profit basis. Because the cafeteria is cjuite large, school affairs, such as the Junior Carnival, co-operative dinners, and school parties arc often held in it. Each day, as the students of Ottumwa High School are busily engrossed in their classroom work, there is another corps of workers engrossed in a different type of schoolwork. This group is the en- gineering force, engaged day in and day cut in beautifying our school. Our lovely grounds, our clean halls, and classrooms are all wonderfully and efficiently kept by this force of engineers. During the time that we are vacationing, this group of workers is continuously trying to improve our building for us. Throughout the school day, our school becomes like a home to each student therein. Naturally, we like 10 have our home as clean as possible. Ottumwa High School may, therefore, well be proud of the efficient group of house-keepers she has. mRimcnoncc CAFETERIA Mrs. A. O. Thompson Mrs. Marie Bottorf encinecRS Row I: Ada Maier.
