WELLS, school treasurer, MARJORIE ENSZER is secretary to Mr. David Gainey, athletic manager. OFFICE ASSISTANTS Assisting with duties about school, stu- dents share the work which keeps the Arthur Hill school in good running order. Students help as secretaries, messengers, hostesses, clerks, and librarians. Senior hostesses respond to the visitor's query, 'lls Mr. Brock in? or one of the office staffs, Will you deliver this request slip, please? The hostesses make school visitors comfortable and welcome and help the office staff in various ways. Six senior girls served as hostesses this year in the Community PROVE VALUABLE Room adjoining the office. The girls wrote letters of application and were chosen on the recommendation of teachers and Miss Ethel Peterson, according to their personality, poise, and scholarship. The student store is one of the many ser- vices afforded to students of Arthur Hill. The salesgirls give up library hours and are selected for their sales interest, ability, and personal reliability. Arthur Hill's library with an ever increas- ing book circulation provides students with easily accessible reference and reading facil- ities. With many books still on order, librar- ians have kept themselves busy during the past year cataloging and classifying new books. Special projects consisted of Book- Week, posters, and special displays of sports books and vocational stories. During their study periods, students work voluntarily as library assistants. While most Hillites are still deep in slum- ber, seven girls making up the Service Club trudge to school to arrive at 7:30 a.m. Their one, but necessary, duty is to keep students out of halls, classrooms, and lockers until the 8:00 bell rings. Gold Pins for recognition are given as a reward for two years of service and all club members are given free Student Organization tickets. Girls who assist in secretarial and book- keeping work gain useful experience in ol'- fice work, such as taking dictation, typing, filing, and mimeographing, which will be helpful when they become regular employees after graduation. Student assistants are used in the main office, the journalism room, the school treasurer's office, athletic managers office and do a great deal of school work in the advanced commercial classes.

No matter how large or small the production, each one requires much planning and work on the part of students and faculty advisers. The assembly committee, under the direction of Mrs. Donna Jeanne Cappell, this year scheduled a series of paid assemblies with the aid of Student Organization funds. These assemblies offered diversified entertainment. The Modaks of India acquainted Hillites with their mystic land through songs, customs, stories, and costume modeling, the Ritz Music Makers trio offered a variation of musical instruments and songs, Mr. jesse P.

SCHOOL AIDS COMMUNITY SERVICES Striving for the 100 per cent mark is the goal of all Hillite advisories in community service projects. IN THE ARTHUR HILL WAY students in the past year contributed time, money, and above all, food for the needy both in America and in Europe. Under the leadership of the fifty-four ad- visory student Red Cross representatives, a student Red Cross committee, and Miss F. Alison Spence, their sponsor, collected 3537.26 for junior membership in the first campaign of the year. A Benefit Dance staged November 7, at which Dance Band members gave half their regular pay or STO, contributed fundsg Latin and Spanish Club students donated 35. Twenty-nine Arthur Hill students spend their spare time as City Red Cross Staff assistants doing volunteer work. Given a special training course which covers the his tory and program of the Red Cross, the stu- dents contribute hours after school and Sat- urdays doing filing, typing, and errands. Coinciding with the Victory Bond Drive in December when Hillites bought or sold a total of 524,325 in Bonds, Christmas seals for the National Tuberculosis Drive were given to advisories where Hillites accounted for SISO worth of stamps. In April, Saginaw police visited Arthur Hill offering students an opportunity to pur- chase their bicycle licenses. Approximately three hundred took advantage of this con- venience. Near the end of school each advisory answered United Nations Relief and Re- habilitation pleas for canned food for Europe's starving millions. Witli the slogan One Can Can Help! Student Cabinet members took the drive to heart and aimed for one can of food from each student. To finish the year, IN THE ARTHUR HILL STYLE-every student did just tht, and some brought more than one can. Money, turned into merchandise, was added and boxed for overseas shipment.
