Resident Nurse Did you ever return to your room one day to find a blue card s'aring you in the face? Yes, it's the lady with the cards, Mrs. Houser. She has the endless job of checking our rooms to ascertain their cleanliness. Mrs, Houser, who is also a registered nurse, lives up to Ben Franklin's saying, Hn ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, as can be seen by the way that she administers the ailing. MISS OLGH RUTH HRISKO, R. N. Hllentown General Hospital Resident Nurse The common saying, or name, I-lngel of Mercy, could not be more appropriately applied to a nurse. Miss Hrisko is always there with a helping hand when we are in need of some type of pill or an- other. She always goes about her duties in a precision-like way and with a pleasant smile on her face. MRS. THELMH BRKER Ofiice Secretary. Public Relations Did you ever wonder who sent out all those catalogues that you re- ceived before you came to the school?

BUCHENHORST Sacred Heart Commercial School Muhlenberg College Secretary to Director of Courses Mrs. Buchenhorst took over the job as Secretary to the Director of Courses during the middle of the year. It is always a hard job to fill in where someone else has left off, and Mrs. Buchenhorst is do- ing her job admirably. From the short time that she has been here, we see that she is very efficient and friendly to all.
