Secretaries receive corsages during N.S.Week. Mrs. John F. Grott is secretary for Mr. J. Ivan Wengerd, grade school principal. She has been employed at S.C. for four years. The effectiveness of any school corporation is the bookkeeper. We are fortunate to have inherited such an efficient one in the Clinton-Hanna- Noble Consolidated School District. Mrs. Dorothy Rosenbaum began her secretarial duties at the Union Mills school in 1957. Since that date her duties have been secretary and bookkeeper to the superintendent's office of the school district. For her responsibilities and dedication to this school system and for a job well done with great responsibility we say thank you. Mrs. Lou Ann Ross, graduate of South Bend College of Commerce, entered the school system this year. She is the secretary for Mr. Keith Piper, high scho- ol principal. Mrs. Evenell Hornsby has been with the corporation for the past four years. She is the secretary for Mr. John Dunk, superintendent. The secretaries received cor- sages during National Secretaries Week. 20
