First row: Mrs. Robinson, Mr. Keller, Mr. Andrews. Second row: Mrs. Ives, Mrs. Petty. CITY SCHOOL STAFF WE ALL know that our school system runs as smoothly as a clock. But the question is: what makes the clock tick? The City School Staff. They are the ones who keep us in check -these silent partners whose work is more valuable than we can guess. Each member has a special duty of his own. Mrs. Robinson, whom we all remem- ber from our Baby Rayl' days as an under- standing person with a friendly smile, has her days Filled with endless tasks. Among other things, she conducts regular grade teachers' meetings and gives demonstration lessons. Mrs. Petty is a D. H. S. alumna. Her title, bookkeeping clerk, naturally means keeping all books and making out payrolls. Mrs. Frances Webb Ives, also a D. H. S. product, is known as the personnel clerk. She has quite a job taking care of corre- spondence and personal Files, and serving as general secretary in the administration office. Mr. I. B. Andrews is the person who supervises the repairing of those Hdogearedf' worn and torn pages of our abused text- books. He is one Book and Supply manager who is kept busy. When Tommy gets out of hand and thinks he just must do a little fishing, Mr. Albert Keller steps into the picture. Or maybe Tommy hasn't got around to be- ginning his educational career. Mr. Keller, director of attendance and of adult educa- tion, knows a sure cure for Tommy. CPoor Tommylj Annually Mr. Keller takes a census of children of school age and makes a study of the city's underprivileged children. PAGE 20
