It consists solely of high school girls who are trying to help those in need and to prepare themselves for service to their community. The Abraham Lincoln Tri-Y, one of the newest members in this extensive organization, is spon- sored by the capable Mrs. Polly Mosby, who attends all of the meetings and gives advice and assistance to the girls. Whenever an affair is given by Abraham Lincoln, the Tri-Y, prominent as being one of the most outstanding clubs in giving assistance, is always ready to serve. At the beginnng of each term, new officers are elected by the members. At the follow- ing meeting the girls are installed by the outgoing officers. This term the officers are: president, Patricia Jaehne; vice-president, Madeline Zoulal ; secretary, Rosalee Oldelehr ; and treasurer, Margaret Flores. Two outstanding affairs in which the Tri-Y participated were the very success- ful fishpond concession at the Carnival and a recent lumberjack dance at which service men were entertained.

Every dassroiini, every club and service group, every faculty member and student indirectly de- pends upon the body of persons behind the scenes. To make the numerous activities successful, good leadership and hard labor are necessary as the essential elements in forming a closely knit, smoothly working organization. Students, busy at their own activities often do not visualize clearly the numerous activities behind the scenes; they do not realize the time and talent spent in helping to make their school lives so successful. Some of the capable persons who manage our student af- fairs are here presented. Pictured in the follow- ing pages are views of the bank room, the cafe- teria, the library, and the office. Miss Gleneice Silvia is faculty treasurer and has charge of any financial matters which concern the school or the students. Her management is a nota- ble factor in our school welfare. The numerous chores which Miss Silvia ' s staff performs include the sale of street car and game tickets. Closely paralleling the business transactions in the bank room is the sale of war bonds and stamps. The room where the sales are handled, next to the main office, is the scene of weekly record-making purchases. On the shoulders of the cafeteria helpers rests the time consuming burden of helping to provide appetizing food for the consumption of the Lin- colnites. James Kenville is student manager of this staff. Another smoothly run and busy unit is the library book room staff. Miss Grace Dixon, who is librarian, keeps more than busy performing or- dinary duties of a librarian as well as keeping an eye on the distribution of texts. Approximately 7nnn books pass into student hands monthly. Student personnel of four administrative offices handle multiple problems every day. Miss Anita Truman, dean of girls, has her office members typing, handling student programs, checking home passes. Mr. Walter G. Frederickson, dean of boys, keeps his staff at work filing and doing cleri- cal work. In the main office Mrs. Grace Easton and her staff have complete charge of records. The attendance problems are efficiently handled by Mrs. Josephine Steach and a staff of hustlers who keep tabs on absences, phone homes to in- form parents of absence records and determine reasons for absence and perform the thousand and one duties essential to regular attendance. Folks behind the scenes don ' t always get the credit they should. Here they take a big bow. JhsL SpoiliqhL ' sdtA. FOLKS BEHIND THE SCENES There arc m.inv f.iculty members bchmd the scenes aIio attr.ict little . ttenti ' in from persons not interested in their r.irtitular held. But these individuals .ire well-liked arid respected by all of (hose familiar with their activities. These faculty members make diflicult subjects interesting and vital to school life. These faculty members, too. make school life bearable, when sometimes it seems intolerable. Every student is grateful to the teacher that tan provide such an atmosphere, that can give him the desire to learn. One such well-likcd person is Mr. John Nill. chemistry teacher. His classes, in- variably interesting, are always well-attended and reluctantly completed. He is just one of the many faculty members that comprise the popular Lincoln staff. Busy at his many .activities. Mr. Nill is never too occupied to answer questions concerning physics or chemistry. He is there, quietly behind the scenes. PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT
