Dear Seniors— Your parents who made it possible for you to attend high school did so because they were convinced that a good education is essential to your later happiness and success. As you leave Reedsburg High School, may 1 suggest that any success you may achieve in life does not necessarily require superiority in riches, power, or social position. But rather, love of work, joy of doing and creating, and the satisfaction of attaining maximum achievement consistent with one’s ability spell success and, of course, happiness. Set your sights high, but remember always that a sense of humor, the warm friendship of others, and pride in doing your job well constitute the real elements of success. 6 BOARD OF EDUCATION Staled — T. J. Merkel, L. C. Furhs. Mrs. II. II. Quimby, P. K. Scbweke, Dr. 0. V. Pauliscb. Standing — W. K. Gant, K. T. Norming ou, Wit Ham Heines.

LOS PROF Y LOS ESTUDIANTES

Page 11 text:

EL PRINCIPIO A man who needs no introduction to R. H. S. students is our principal, Mr. Olson. His crowded schedule makes him one of the busiest people around school, and one who is in contact with seniors and freshmen alike. Even before classes begin in the morning, Mr. Olson is busy issuing passports, make-up cards, and doing other routine jobs. After this he teaches four chemistry classes. He is never far from the building for his home is across from the school, and after his lunch with his wife and children he returns and resumes his duties as principal. Just a few of the duties he must perform in the afternoon are attending to the extension courses, making out the detention lists, and checking on the students who were absent and tardy. After school is over, students crowd into the office to see Mr. Olson regarding some school matter — all anxious to get his advice in straightening out one of the many problems that arise in school life. We shall always remember Mr. Olson as our counselor through our high school days. As Mr. Normington’s private secretary, Ruth has an important role in our high school life. Besides her regular duties, she also acts as receptionist and bookkeeper. Her many jobs keep her in contact with all the students of the school. We all admire Ruth for her loyalty to her work, and her friendly manner toward us when we need her help. Because of the large amount of work to be done in the office, it is necessary to have several student helpers. The following girls serve in this capacity: Marian Hanusa, Amy Winter, Mary Ellen Hayes and Doris Black.
