AD TDY A knock upon a second door, a pleasant invitation of entre and johnny steps into another room with the same air of friend- liness about it. He, however, should probably be a bit timid and sellf-conscious as he talks to anot.l1er executive, because a person who is in charge ol absence and tardiness is usually one students would rather not deal with too often. But not at Arthur Hill, for Mr. Ray- mond Morrow, is a real friend of the students. Morning line-up in the general ollice Ends late-corners out oi breath from hurrying, pre- sumably, a little shut-eyed, and traces of thought upon their faces, probably wrack- ing their brains for a good excuse. After tell- ing the troubles of late to Mr. Morrow, students step from tl1e ollice with a slip- white or blue-they leel satisfied because they know that i11 all fairness the ap- propriate color was issued. Boys freely talk their problems over with Mr. Morrow who capably Hlls the position of boys' counselor and adviser of the Student Union Cabinet. As Johnny speaks to Mr, Morrow, Mary discovers that she too has need for counsel- ing. Her steps along the hall lead directly to the center olhce 111, where Miss Ethel A. Peterson is busily poring over papers prob- ably concerning scholarships, health, or the activity calendar all of which she directs. She, too, has a full day, for besides being girls' counselor and heading special activities, she teaches three English classes. Assisting Miss Peterson and Mr. Morrow in counseling and guidance are Hlty-two Mrs. Salvner, Room IIS. heads general olhce stail Mr, Morrow, Room ll2, Boys' Counselor home-room advisers with a group ol' these offering still more thorough direction in a new course, Art of Living. Living is one thing but knowing the art of it is another and 368 10B and 12A students have learned a portion of tl1at technique by taking the one-semester required course, Art of Living. By alternating with gym or library, each student had the subject every other day Miss Novack, Room 113, assists in oflice aflairs 1 Miss Peterson, Room 111, is Girls' Counselor studying the 11nits: Entering School, How to Study, Personality, Manners and Etiquette, Educational Program Plan Guidance, Voca- tional Choice Guidance, Health, Recreation and Leisure Time, Character Building, and Entering Into Adult Connnunity Life. Under the direction of Miss Eloise Bacon, who has spent some time studying guidance problems for her master's degree in this field, Mrs. Sallie M. Brown, Miss Margaret Fraser, Miss Mary F. Lewis, Mr. Harve Light, Miss Ethel Peterson, Mr. Maurice C. Schmidt, Miss Helen Spagnuola, and Mr. Arnold E. Wolgast were instructors of the subject. After discussions with the administration both Johnny and Mary walk towards the general oflice. Sounds issuing from a room to the left show that oflice helpers are busy. A peek in finds Miss Elsie Novack, StCl1Og- rapher, busily supervising the mimeograph, at the same time, telling a student helper the steps ol operation. The short walk iinally ends up in the gen- eral oihce where Mrs. Arnold Salvner, secre- tary, is heard answering telephone calls probably after pausing from planning and arranging program cards, or detailed reports for the superintendent's ofhce. It was a pleasant walk for John and Mary. Both agree, as do students, parents, and the en tire community, that the administrative staff is one that wants to efhciently and graciously aid in the organization for study and leadership. 15
