The Qclwal Pmmne This year the employees of the Van Hornesville Central School have the added attraction of having a Methodist minister as a bus driver. The Reverend Miles Watkins. pastor of the Jordanville and Paines Hollow churches, is driving the school bus in the village of Jordan- ville. The other bus drivers. Howard Mathise, Paines Hollow: Vifard VanDeusen, Starkville and vicinity: Earl Miller and then Harold Eckler, Jordanville to Van Hornesville: Harvey Shaul, Rocks district: and Harvey MaGinnis, Chyle and locality. did the pressing and tying in bun- dles of the four and one-half tons of scrap paper collected in the nation-wide paper drive con- ducted by the A'Truth or Consequence radio program and sponsored by the freshmen. Burt Ackerman, the school janitor, has added to his usual duties the job of collecting and pressing the waste paper found in the school waste paper baskets, as well as tending the furnaces. Miss Dorothy Miller, the cafeteria cook, was busy watching the school food budget and mind- ing her P's and Q's in vitamins and calories to get a balanced noon meal for the grade and high school students. Mrs. Hazel Bronner, janitress. is working later than ever to keep the windows clean in the buildings and to keep clean towels available for the athletes of the school. This year, as well as last. Mrs. Bronner has sold ice cream to the students and faculty. Ice cream was purchased in bulk form, and Mrs. Bronner has dipped five and ten cent ice cream cones for those who wished them. Mrs. Mary Young, secretary to Principal Woodruff, has taken the added responsibility of typing and making copies of the problems and questions for the newly required state-wide health classes. Howard Leneker, VHS business manager, has for the past year driven the sta- tion wagon in the Frog City district, and has also been delivering the monthly pay checks to the faculty and other employees. Having done their required work for the upkeep of the school, the employees have also bought bonds and stamps and have served as blood donors. And so each school employee in his own small way, is furthering the war effort, building for a stronger, better tomorrow, and serving the world. all in one. 8 The 1944 Ofsquagan
