Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Bottorff, Mrs. Boland, Mrs. Wells CAFETERIA Students and teachers entering the noisy cafeteria at twelve noon probably don't re- alize the thought and work that have been done in the preparation of their meals. On the average two hundred fifty people pur- chase a hot, wholesome meal each day. Stu- dents who bring their lunches from home also have the privilege of eating in the cafeteria, which being quite large, seats over five hun- dred. Although the cafeteria is run on a non profit-basis, it has never gone in the red . This is undoubtedly due to Mrs. Thompson's capable management. Last year the cafeteria had between three and four hundred dollars to its credit after the overhead had been paid. Mrs. Thompson plans the meals, orders all food stuffs and keeps the books. Due to the wartime re- strictions it takes more careful planning to obtain all the necessities and still serve nu- tritious meals. Thus management of the cafeteria is a huge responsibility. At the end of each month. Miss King checks the books and Mr. Rozeboom audits them. Mrs. A. 0. Thompson, the manager, has been employed by the Ottumwa High School for twenty-two years. The assistant man- ager is Mrs. Marie Bottorff, who has eleven years of service to her credit. This year to help take care of the increased patronage of the cafeteria, Mrs. Boland has been added to the cooking staff. Miss Florence Fast, one of the world history teachers of O. I I. S., is the very capable cashier. At six-thirty in the morning the cooks start work. Mrs. Bottorff makes all the pastry besides helping with the main part of the meal. At noon usually six high school students wash dishes. In this way they earn their dinners; however the noon hour is not long enough for the stu- dents to do all of the dishes, so Mrs. Thomp- son and Mrs. Bottorff stay until nearly three o’clock cleaning and doing the unfinished tasks. Until this year high school girls have helped, but demands from outside sources have taken the usual supply of kitchen help from the student body. Girls from Adams have filled the vacancies. The cafeteria provides ample accomodations for the an- nual Junior Carnival, and the club parties. Page 18
