EN BEHIND the wheel, women W0 behind the counter, men and women who wield the mop and climb the step ladderfthese are the people who keep the sehool in good run- ning order. War jobs and armed forees have thinned their ranks drastically, but those remaining have carried on their jobs faithfully and against tremendous odds. Teachers have taken over the jobs of bus drivers, busy housewives have aided the extra burden of helping in our cafeteriag and students themselves have pitched in to help clean and keep clean school buildings and grounds, to guard against damage to irreplaeahle equipment and waste of unobtainahle supplies. But above all the sadly de- pleted staifs of the transportation de- partment, the cafeteria, and 1-ustodian In X0l'1I1tl71llflj'S modern bus garage our jleef of sclmol Innes is kept in tip-top .shape and zlefailerl records of the trcnixportatimi flepurtmenf are nzude.

PLEASE service have doubled and trehled their expenditures of energy and their hours of lahor. Uncomplainingly they have shouldered the hurdens of their war johs with amazing efficiency. Nowhere has the pinch of war re- strictions been more sharply felt than in these departments where procurement and transportation of supplies is so vitally important. Delay and some- times total failure in this service is mel with cheerful patience by these true friends of the school. Their interest in student activities and the extra work they do just to help out is certainly not part of the contract and just serves to prove their real friendship. Their con- stant vigilance, sometimes misinter- preted hy careless students, is really a genuine concern for their welfare. .ffl , I 1 sm ,P .. , music. . Jlr.

Even divided by the numher enrolled in school, their total service leaves a huge quotient of service per person and a debt that it is impossible to pay. Every student owes a personal note of thanks to each of these hard-working, long-suffering in- dividuals. Without them the school would operate much less smoothly and chaos would soon result. Imagine Normandy with noihus transportation, the cafeteria with no food, the en- tire school with no cleanly swept halls and class roomsithen you will have an idea of their essential place in the life of the school.
