Secretaries Aid MHS Teachers, Students For approximately one and one-half years, Mrs. Dara Mc- Donald was part of the business staff of the school district. Her iob consisted of the usual office work plus the various jobs con- nected with school such as typing announcements, stenciling tests, taking care of tickets, records, and making out the annual re- port to the State Department. No matter how busy she might be, she always had a smile for everyone and would drop every- thing to help any flustered stu- dent or harassed teacher. A per- fect secretary in every respect, Mrs. McDonald was greatly missed when she resigned just before New Years. When asked her opinion of her iob as secretary, Mrs. Elaine Duffy replied, I like it here. There is never a dull moment. Activity never seems to cease in Medford l-ligh's business office. ln spite of her many duties, Mrs. Duffy is always placid and cheer- ful at school. She certainly has a lot of energy, for she leads a troop of Girl Scouts after school hours. One can always count on Mrs. Duffy for prompt aid on business affairs. All in all, we pronounce her a good Scout. 'fi'
