The purpose of the Club can best be stated by quoting from Article I of the Consti- tution and By-Laws adopted by the Club in 1938: 'tThe object of this organization shall be to pro- mote the welfare of the child in the school, home, and community, and to create a better understand- ing between parents and teachersf, The Club provides an excellent means by which the mothers of Central High students may become acquainted with each other, with the school executives, and with the faculty, furthermore, pupil entertainment, sponsored by the Director of Community Relations, affords an opportunity for members to become familiar with student activities in the school. The Mothers' Club has been doing an excellent, worthwhile piece of work. Money, earned through the Club's social activities outside of the school, is spent to provide food and clothing for C entra1's needy pupils and to purchase school equipment not provided by the Board of Education. May the fine spirit of loyalty and cooperation spur it on to greater and broader achievements in the future. The officers of the Central High School Mothers' Club for the year 1939 and 1940 are as follows: President Mrs. C. P. Riechers, jr. Treasurer .a... ..... . .. . ........ Mrs. C. H.

For if you've done these things and more and love them every one, Then you have to a circus been, and wasn't it great fun? Prize-winning poem of the Police Relief Association's Circus Poetry Contest 11,000 Contestantsj. MARVEL DAFFRON, ,42 . WHY? - Why? - Why does the sun seem bright to me? Why does it fill my heart with glee? Why do the birds sing happily? Why--please tell me-why? Why? - Why do we have rules and laws? Why does my dog have muddy paws? Well-maybe it is just because. But why- tell me-why? Why? - Why does it have to rain today? Why can't I go out and play? I'd like to know what you will say So, tell me, won't you-why? A --ELwoon MILLER, '42. Thirteen
