YOUTH’S GUIDES CAROLYN L. V ENZ, A.B. Principal MARY RIEDELL Secretary JOHN R. MOSS. B.S.. A.M. Superintendent NANCY HUNTER Secretary The city Superintendent of Schools has many varied functions to perform. However, in spite of his many duties Mr. John R. Moss, who has held this position since 1923, takes every opportunity to aid the students of Paris High School. He is well known among the student body as a friend, adviser, and one who has kept in touch with Youth. There is no person who knows and understands Youth better than the principal of a high school. Miss Carolyn L. Wenz, principal here for many years, through her kindly influence and unselfish help has made every contact with the many students of this high school a truly great experience,—an experience felt and appreciated by them for many years afterwards.
