Among some of the projects of the club was the designing of the backdrops for the Dressmaker's Fashion Show, the Minstrel Show and the play Maker of Dreams. The members have made posters for various school activities throughout the year. In addition, the different art forms from paintings, draw- ings, and charcoal sketches to tapestry work have been studied. KNITTING AND NEEDLECRAFT CLUB THE PURPOSE of this club is to provide a meeting place and instruction for those interested in knitting or crocheting. During the year the members have made suits, sweaters, pocketbooks and many other useful articles. Some girls have made bedspreads, scarfs, doilies, and collar and cuff sets. They have held several exhibits of their work which has been of great interest to the school. The supervisors, Mrs. Slade and Mrs. Willis, have taught the girls many new and intricate stitches and aided them in making many attractive garments. CAMERA CLUB THE CAMERA CLUB, under the guidance of Miss Hedeman, proved both instruc- tive and enjoyable.
