True to reports, it is a most successful division. At the beginning of the year, groups were formed in story-telling, handicraft, travel, social recreation, music, and dramatics. Each girl could choose the group she was most interested in. These groups met twice a month, and there was one joint meeting a month with an interest group in charge. Selling pennants, candy, and hot dogs at fooball games, a rummage sale, a food sale, a candy sale, and the presentation of a public program were the methods em- ployed by the Ways and Means committee to earn money for the Okoboji delegates- As the social part of the program there was a party after the membership drive, a mothers' tea, and a treasure hunt. This year's program was based on the airplane theme, On the Quest. IRENE FARLEY. -52-

The officers, having been elected the preceding spring, took charge. Rolf Bye was elected sergeant-at-arms to take the place of Kenneth Mullen. The attendance at all of the meetings this year was exceptional, and some unusual programs were furnished. As no money-making entertainment was put on this year, the organ- ization carried through with the funds made on the Big Four Carnival last year. The second annual hard times stag party was held in the gym late in the winter, and every member was present. Stunts and features took up a large part of the evening, and prizes were awarded for all events. A The last meeting of the year was a banquet luncheon held at the Coffee Cup Inn, at which the ofiicers for the coming year were elected. Mr. Sweetland, our adviser, helped us greatly in all our Work. R. S. -61-

COMMERCIAL CLUB I'z-vsidwif ---- B1-:RNADINE F1suHr:R V1'vv-I'rvs1'dm1f - ARLIHIE Hmxisnun Sccrvfrlry-Twrlsiirvr - - - ALICE PETERSON HE Commercial Club has indeed fulfilled its purpose of promoting in- terest as well as stimulating co-operation among the students in their work during the year. The meetings held the second and fourth Thursdays of each month have been very interesting as well as beneficial to its mem- bers. As previous, a program theme was carried out during the year. Fly to Success With Us furnished the theme for the first semester programs. The club's flight was interrupted by several stops. However, these stops, made semi-monthly, helped the club to reach its destination more safely. The various stops included stations such as Personality, Personal Appear- ance, Good English, Honesty, and Efficiency. The second semester program theme was The Model Business OHice. At each meeting a department of a business was discussed. The Commercial Club was very fortunate in hav- ing prominent business men and faculty members talk to it on these vari- ous subjects. During the year, several social meetings were held, ranging from a Get-together' party to a Senior Farewell Banquet. The goal of success which the Commercial Club has reached this year is attributed largely to the willing advice and interest that our advisers, Miss Viona Hansen and Miss Frances Owen, have shared in the work of the club.
