Secretaries MRS. LAURA PARSONS is our capable record-keeper at Hewitt. Records of all descriptions: permanent records, transcripts, grades and transfers, etc. are hers to keep in order. This is a tremendous duty when one considers all the various records kept on each individual student, and then considers the number of students here at Hewitt. MRS. DELLA SUTTER, Hewitt’s bookkec| cr, hus been here fifteen years. Bookkeeping alone is a big task involving hard work and concentration, but Mrs. Sutter does much more than this for us. She is our receptionist, always smiling and glad to help everyone. She is also the one responsible for helping the student clubs keep track of their money, which is usually all in nicklcs, dimes, and pennies. Thank you Mrs. Sutter. Keep smiling and keep those books in balance! 14
