Miss REITZ Dean of Girls The Dean's Office FEW indeed are the girls in W. H. S. who do not visit Miss Reitz's ofhce frequently. Thither they bring their hurt fingers, their torn stockings, and, sadly enough, their mis' behavior records, but more than this they bring their joys, their hopes, and plans. The contents of her medicine chest, plus her delightful humor and her sympathetic understanding, is a balm for any trouble and an inspiration for wellfdoing. Here in a tiling chest on the desk are kept the schedules, future ambitions, activities, best friends, addresses, and names of the parents of every girl. Here are kept the health books to which girls must refer several times in their high school career for a health assignment. Thus, Miss Reitz has made her office a place of im' portance to every girl who wishes to get the full worth of Wilkiiisburg High School. . . . bMz'Ayc+y age At the senior tea, one of the many delightful social events sponsored by the dean of girls and the students' mothers.

Here are checked the attendances of students, here are issued early dismissal slips when necessary. Here, too, are filed the master cards whereby every student may be readily located. The genuine friendliness with which Mr. Getter answers all our questions, the pleasure he takes in helping us, and his interest in all our problems make him one of the most respected persons in school.
