has Tertulia Espanola TTT President, Ellen Oberg Secretary-Treasurer, Flsrence Ford Social Promoter, Marie Salmi The Spanish Club was trganized this year with more zest and spirit than ever before. Under the splendid supervision of Mss Akin we have successfully accomplished our under- takings and made rapid progress in our aim to become a re quisite and wcrth-while institution in the school. The club entered a booth in the Hallowe'en Carnival, the menlbers Leing dressed in colorful Spanish effects. Candy sales were held at the high school plays in order to replenish the club's funds. In Fe ruary the Castillians gave a party at the home of the president, Miss Oberg, and although not one word of Spanish was spoken, everyone enjoyed himself immensely. We sincerely hope that after we are gone, the school will long remember us, and that the future students will make this a living organization in cur school. -Florence Ford.
