THE DEANS The many intricacies of a shining gold emblem cannot be moulded well without the combined efforts of many goldsmiths-principals, deans, and teachers. Mr. Russell Brown and Miss Mildred Pasch represent the second step-deans -in the creation of a better and more experi- enced emblem. To these two goldsmiths every Tad and Taddie owes a great amount of thanks for the many services performed. These services include arranging schedules, procuring employ- ment, giving advice, and writing recommenda- tions for many and varied purposes. There are times, however, when our deans must wield a heavy hammer at the forge-must straighten out the incongruities which circumstances impress upon the gold of each person's character. By means of these many kindly activities, our deans, Mr. Brown and Miss Pasch, lead us Tads and Taddies along a golden road of helpful living. Page 8 MR. NAUTS Year by year DeVilbiss grows and acquires more gold in its vaults of progress and experi- ence. The head watchman over this gold is our principal, Mr. Merritt C. Nauts. lt is he who guards and retains this priceless horde of gleaming treasure. Each student of DeVil- biss draws continually his interest from our principal-our watchman. As the fond dreams of this watchman materialize, so also do the inspirations and successes of each person who has contributed to and drawn from this supply of gold. DeVilbiss very definitely has many many examples of true success derived from the careful watch which Mr. Nauts maintains. Let us all try to be like this model of achieve- ment-Mr. Nauts-who is always ready to show us the results of his visionary planning and idealistic striving.
