r i When the first Dean of Girls left Bloom, the school struggled for three long years without such a helper. Then, the Parent-Teachers ' Association recognized the urgent need of a dean ; this organization, after much consideration, selected as the new dean of Girls, Miss Ora Theobald, who had previously been engaged as a teacher at Bloom. Miss Theobald has filled this position with a concientious sense of her responsibility so succesfully, that the girls of Bloom would be lost without her kind advice and cheerful assistance. When additions were made to the school the office was remodeled. Mr. Boyer had a sanctum of his own. The outer office was converted into a more administrative center where the students now receive individual attention, and thu faculty get in touch with the day ' s schedules. Here Miss Soderman presides. Her work is wide and varied, answering telephone calls, checking up credits for students,, from Freshmen to Seniors, writing numerous important letters, and straightening out many of the difficulties of the day. From eight A. M. until five P. M. she gives freely of her service with a pleasant smile for stu- dents, faculty or visitors. Miss Soderman has been Mr. Boyer ' s assistant and the faculty ' s right hand for many years and has won her way into the hearts of both students ana facultv. Twenty-four
