He has tlie very important position of HSuperin- tendent ol Buildings and Grounds. Supervising tile cleaning and upkeep of some twelve buildings and the tluge campus wlniclu composes T.U.H.S. and J.C. is cer- tainly no small join. l tleard tile liigures on the value of our sciiool, and they were as- tonisliing. lVlr. Elliott has some very valu- alale property to supervise. Two of our sclaoolis competent secretaries are Eva VViIf son and Florene Hulse-secretaries to Stan- ford Hannah and Herman Buckner, respect- ively. Perhaps l siiould liire a secretary to do my small tasks lor me. iVirs.

Tlie popu- larity ol time cafeteria is due largely to the successful management and cooking of time stalli ol six cooks under lxlrs. Ritenour.

Teacliers wlio need equipment or repairs simply leave a note in tliis custodianis ol- tice, and magically tlie necessary equipment appears, or time repairs are made. I ilave often wondered tiow tldey keep track ol so many requests and get tilem liilled so promptly. KEEPLIRS AND UUOKS. lop picture: Cafeteria stuff: Coker, Riti-nour, Hilten, Bryon. llarris.
