Help From Library and ffice Workers Many fine students spent their study pe- riods as library or office assistants. An of- fice worker had many duties to perform. Some of these were delivering notes to teachers and students, answering the phone, making announcements, delivering daily bulletins, and writing out dismissals. These students really helped the secretar- ies, Mrs. Conger and Mrs. Robertson. Li- brary assistants also kept busy shelving and circulating books and helping with bulle- tin boards. All library assistants belonged to LAMPS-Library Assistants of Missis- sippi Private Schools. Posing as Mrs. Conger, Malinda Stanton paused for a brief moment from her work at the front desk in the office. fupper rightj The student office workers were helpful to other stu- dents and persons seeking infonnation in the office.
