1941-1942 Yearbook

C. D. Brown The business office-the place where the "painless extraction method" of securing payment from students is practiced is the office of Bu rsar Brown. Here he is pictured with two of the student helpers, Caudell Lone and Ber tha Smith. In addition to the studen t transactions. all problems and financial affairs of the two forms, laundry, and College Club pass through the honds of Bursa r Brown. A sub post office station is maintained in the business office. When not in his office greeting students with t he phrase "Let's decorate the ma hogany," he likes to fish or read to his children. Ea r l Smith Associated with Hardmg this year is Eorl Smith, su· perintendent of buildings and grounds and maintenance engineer on top of that. His hobby is anything mechanical and that is rather strange for a man who knew nothing but horses and saddles on a Texas ranch until he was twenty years old. Brother Smith preaches, too, and established two congregations at Clay ton, New Mexico, whi le he was there in the government service. M rs. A. B. Chand le r "Ma"Chandler doily feeds 200 hungry students. She is the college dietitian who w:elds the "big stick" in the kitchen, and isn't so small herself. "Be on time" is her motto. She has over 2,000 recipes to show for her hobby and her first love is fixing diets for sick people. Mrs. J . Ha rvey Dykes "We've been very lucky with thirteen," says Mrs. Dykes, malron of the thirteen girls who live in "Gray Gobles," the three-story frame house south of Pattie Cobb Hall. The Qirls do light housekeeping with Mrs. Dykes as their second mothe r . Sewing of all sorts occupies much of her time and she teaches the ladies'Thursday afternoon Bible closs.
