Librarians The librarian’s duties are numerous but the most important duty is checking out of books to those who wish them and to keep the library neat and attractive. The greatest aim is to be polite, try to help everyone and to be willing to use extra time to take care of the books. Twenty-five non-fiction and thirteen fiction books were added to the library this year. These books, were selected from lists of interesting books contributed from other schools, as their choice of good literature. Under the supervision of Miss Myrtle Wold and assisted by the head librarian, Sadie Leichtnam, and twelve other librarians, the library has rendered helpful service.

Girls’ Athletic Association G. A. A. has been inactive since 1934, when Mrs. Stella Knaack was sponsor, until Miss Virginia Rigney started it again in 1936. This enabled the senior girls of 1936 to get their three-striped sweaters. If G. A. A. had been earned on all four years they would have been four-year girls this year and had a choice of rewards. G. A. A. was started for the year 1936-37 with hikes every Tuesday and Thursday afternoons after school. During the time in which the gymnasium was being refloored the group met in the study hall and points of etiquette were stressed. After this was completed gymnasium work began. During the year the G. A. A. helped sponsor the sale of Tuberculosis seals and decorated two show windows down town dining the Red Cross diive. A pageant, “The Doll Shop,” written by Helen Winters was presented in April with forty-eight members of the athletic group taking part. The proceeds from the pageant went toward the purchasing of the letters, caps and sweaters for the girls rewards.
