RESUME OF THE WORK OF THE OFFICE The wisdom of your action in establishing the office of Registrar has been so conclusively demonstrated in the first year of its existence and is so patent that more than a passing reference is unnecessary. The office has had the accounting of more than $104,000 of business in the twelve months. It has relieved principal and heads of departments previously overloaded with work of all financial burdens--burdens that with the largely increased growth of the school during the year would have proved well-nigh intolerable. It has centralized in one place for the students payments of every nature. "We are a little world unto ourselves up here" volunteered one of the teachers this morning, "and I cannot find words to express my appreciation of the convenience it is to me to get a check cashed at your office." This quotation sounds the key-note of a phase of helpfulness the office has been to faculty and students alike. It has been measured financially in the table appended: Number of General receipts issued, involving more than 1400 transactions - 1243. Number of Edens Hall receipts issued - 828. Number of meal tickets issued, each named and dated - 548. Number of State Vouchers drawn, involving more than $80,000 - 211. Number of Revolving fund checks issued - 518. Each of the Revolving fund checks required a sub-voucher receipt setting forth in detail the items for which the check was in payment - 518. Number of Voucher-checks issued - 339. Each of these checks required notarial attestation. Your registrar did not attest all of them, but he sealed enough other affidavits to increase the number to more than - 400. Number of Rebate checks drawn - 608. Number of Edens Hall Board accounts - 171. Number of general accounts - 32. Number of Certificate and Diploma accounts - 245. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for September 1910 Volume 03 - Page 186 1910-09-01 Number of checks cashed for students and faculty - 800. Number of checks received by the school - 1657. Amount of money used in cashing checks - $8999.75. Amount of checks received by the school - 20400.00. No accounting of the Locker fund appears in this statement. There are 160 lockers a number of which are not in commision. Each applicant for a key is required to make a deposit of 25 cents which is returned to the holder upon final presentation of the key. Each borrower of a key is penalized 5 cents which may be charged against the deposit or may be paid in cash. At one time during the year there was nearly $50.00 in the fund. The first of the new year there was less than $5.00. Respectfully submitted, Registrar. Trustee Donovan moved that the report be accepted, filed and made a part of the minutes. The principal presented the following, which on motion of Trustee Donovan was adopted: State Normal School, Bellingham, Washington, September 5th, 1910. To the Board of Trustees,- At a meeting of the Board of Trustees held August 16th, 1910, the duty of filling the vacancy in the English Department, caused by the resignation of Miss Catherine Cribbs was referred to the Chairman of the Board and the Principal, with power to act. After correspondence with Miss M. Belle Sperry, head of the English Department, and consultation with various candidates, and after correspondence with several applicants, the Principal recommended upon his own judgment, the employment of Miss Olive Edens to serve as assistant teacher of English for the school year 1910-1911, at a salary of $1020 per year, and assigned her for work in that department. At the same meeting of the Trustees, the question of the employment of a lady to serve as teacher of physiology and hygiene and fill the position of school nurse, was also referred to the Principal and the Chairman of the Board, with power to establish and fill the position. The performance of this duty proved no easy task, but after correspondence with Superintendent F. B. Cooper, of Seattle, Dr. Luther C. Gulick, of New York City public schools, and Dr. Leonard P. Ayres, of the Child Study Department of the Russel Sage Foundation, and after personal conferences with candidates both in Bellingham and Seattle, it was decided to establish the position and after the work to Miss Ruth Gottlieb, of Cincinnati, Ohio. Miss Gottlieb was recommended by the director of Child Study in the Russel Sage Foundation, and is a teacher of successful experience. She is also a graduate of a medical college which is now merged with the Medical Department of the University of Cincinnati. The position was formally offered to Miss Gottlieb, Sept. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for September 1910 Volume 03 - Page 187 1910-09-01 3rd, 1910, at a salary of $900 per year. Miss Gottlieb formally accepted the position and began her duties Monday, September 12th, 1910. The duties outlined for the position of school nurse have been made general in character for the first year, in order that opportunity may be given for proper organization and development of the work, but in general they will include the following items:- To teach one or two classes each semester in the elements of physiology and hygiene, and during one semester a class in school hygiene. Also to examine each lady student upon admission and report such as should be asked to present a formal medical certificate from a regular physician; also to examine each child admitted into the training department and hold clinics and give lectures at stated periods with these children before classes of practice teachers; also to visit students who may be temporarily ill in their rooms near the school; also to have regular office hours for consultation of students about their general health and living; also have general charge of the problems of health, of contagious diseases, and epidemics that break out in the school from time to time. It is not expected that she shall have charge as physician and write formal prescriptions, and she will not be expected to take care of students who are ill as a regular nurse would do, and only in emergency cases will she be required to do any night work. She should be entitled to the usual vacations of the institution. The hours will cover from 8 a. m. to 5 p. m. and it will be expected that the teacher will be willing to conform to the needs of the department during the experimental development of the work. The following fees for the physical examination of students have been announced for the school year 1910-1911. Normal School students: per semester - $0.50. per year - $1.00. Training School pupils: per semester - $0.25. per year - $0.50. Since this department and the fees charged were not officially announced in our catalogue or bulletins for this school year, it is recommended that students be excused from payments of same for the first semester where they bring at the opening of the school year a medical certificate from a physician. Respectfully submitted, Principal. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for September 1910 Volume 03 - Page 188 1910-09-01 The appended estimate was presented by the Principal: Washington-State Normal School-Bellingham, September 28th, 1910. To the Board of Trustees,- We respectfully submit for your consideration the following estimate of the funds needed for equipment and maintenance of the State Normal School at Bellingham for the biennial term, 1910-1913.

These figures do not include estimates from all departments, but those not included here will probably be very modest in their requests for general equipment. The report also does not include figures for the general maintenance of the institution as these can be secured directly from the record of the Registrar. The increased amount needed over former estimates for the operation and equipment of the institution for the biennial term of WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for September 1910 Volume 03 - Page 193 1910-09-01 1911-1913 bears a direct relation to the growth of the institution during the past two years, and if the present rate of growth increases during the next two years, the estimates herewith submitted will probably prove inadequate to cover the needs of the institution. Respectfully submitted, Principal. Anna Fry of Sumas entered school at the opening of the current year and a few days later was compelled to return home an account of an attack of typhoid fever. On the suggestion of the principal it was ordered that her entire library fee of $10.00 be returned to her. The University of Puget Sound at Tacoma having invited this school to send a representative to be present at the formal inauguration of their president, Dr. Zoeller, it was ordered that the invitation be accepted and after discussion, Prof. Deerwester was selected.
