M iss VVisely Il E F E ll E N C E Books, books, books! Languages, social sciences, natural sciences, and fiction! Bright new bindings and well-worn old ones-all helping to make the library a cheerful and important part of Scott. Miss Wisely efficiently rules her small domain, doing everything possible to make it easy for book-seekers to use the available material. Students who are looking for books are cheerfully aided by a competent library staH which she has trained especially for this work. Members of this staff include Charlotte Aiduss, Nancy Ann Butt, Mary Helen Bettridge, Mildred Dolgin, Ruth Grubbs, Florence I-Iudgin, Ann Judy, Freda Kammen, Rose Keeler, David Krosner, Luella Krueger, Anna Mae Lacey, Elliott Latez, Fern Lepold, XVilma Merillet, Robert Reines, Roslyn Rice, Dorothy Stalnaker, Barbara Thompson, Delores Vanell, Ray Van Sant, Naomi Zuleger, William Bullet. To encourage self-help, students are taught to use the card-catalogues, the Dewey Decimal System, and the Reader's Guide. Each year many new books are added to the collection, keeping it up to date. Rentals are charged for these books until they have paid for themselves. All other volumes and magazines may be borrowed without charge by any Scotter for one week with the privilege of renewal for one week more. Books placed on the reserve shelf are for the use of entire classes and so may be taken out over night only. The progressiveness, efficiency, and helpfulness of Miss Wisely and her staff are greatly appreciated by all who use the library. It's a wise teacher who sees nothing but studying going on in the library. THIRTEEN

.lam TWELVE Time marches on as the thundering herd charges down the stairs in an at- tempt to keep up with it. Mrs. Hoover, Mrs. Beggs, Miss Bierly -MQW The office-the hub about which all school activities re- volve! Sooner or later all inquiries and problems find their solutions here. The smiling stad efhciently answers the ques- tions of students, visitors, and teachers, while the clock gloat- ingly counts the seconds until with a loud b-1'-r-ing it can fill the classrooms, halls, and office with confusion for a few minutesg then, as easily, send Scotters back to work again. Sending transcripts of credits to colleges, keeping permanent records of every Scott student, checking eligibility for ath- letic events, keeping track of teachers' attendance, calling in substitutes when needed, and taking care of the teachers' mail boxes would keep any staff busy. But in addition to these duties, our office staff must be ready immediately to take care of many other things which come up in the day's work. The head clerk and school treasurer is Miss Neva Bierly. Mrs. Maebyron Hoover takes care of attendance and orders supplies. The book room was managed by Mrs. Grace Covert, but during her long illness her place was taken by Mrs. Margaret Beggs. We should not underestimate the importance of the office in our school life. Its files affect our careers not only in high school but also in business and college.
