Principal Principal Paul C. Garrison has been with us for only one year but during that time he has acquired many fond acquaintances among the students and the faculty. R. H. S. reconversion from accelerated war-time schedules to normal peace-time ones has been no small task, but Mr. Garrison has taken it in his stride with the ease and grace of one who had acted in this capacity his entire life. Deans James C. Farmer, known as the wit of R. H. S., can be counted on to come through with the right thing when the time comes. Always willing to contribute enthusiasm, he remains, to the graduates of his time, one to be remembered with the fondest regards. Miss Gladys B. Erdahl, dean of girls, has proved herself to be the real friend in need. Sincerity, understandability, and patience plus the desire to set aright those who are entering the long, weary road of life, compose the at- tributes of our unforgettable dean of girls ' outstanding character.
