There are many phases of school life, and only by participating in cach can one ever become a Well- roundcd student. One of the most important is society work. There is that about society work which en- thuses, inspires, and prompts one to higher and better effortsg and that which broadens our minds by bringing us in touch with one another in a way that makes us desire to excell. The Arcandan Society has never done better work in any period of its history than in this year. The large number of well-prepared parts which have been given by the society show that it has many loyal mem- bcrs. It was gratifying to see the Freshmen in their socicty work. Nothing seemed too diiiicult for them, but they always prepared their parts with a true so- ciety spirit. Although our contests were unsuccessful in the an- nual cont.st, we feel sure that they reflected much credit on the society. CTl1e decision was made only after much diffieultyj Our interest in these contests has ever been very great and on the night of the con- test there were many of our mcmbcrs present to en- courage our speakers, and to take part in the yells and songs, especially prepared for the occasion. And we anxiously await the next yearly contest that we may again enter it, and come out stronger society members, if not winners. lVe do not deem it necessary to give a detailed his- tory of our work during this year. but, suffice it to say, that we are closing the year with greater antici- patiens for the future than ever before. YVe are growing more and more zealous for our society each day, and especially to appreciate the opportunities which it offers for our training. And we close this 'brief article by asking those who chance to read it, to visit some of our sfssions during the next school year. You will be most Welcome. To those who are anticipating entering High School at Greenfield, we extend a hearty invitation to enter our society and thereby help usg and we certainly will show our appreciation by trying to help yon. l l 1 1 l I l l l f l l i l

There's a dear old school in Greenfield, With an Emersonian band, Which has ever seemed to us, To be the best in all the land. We're a band of cheerful workers, Who have always done our best, We're the finest ever found in GSH. S. And we find ourselves a-singing all the while. Chorus. Emersonian! Emersonian! Emersonian! A grand old name! We are your strong defenders, W-e have raised you to great fame. Lift high the royal banner Of purple and old old, 8 Oh! Emer, Emer, Emer, Emer, sonia, E Again we repcat: Emersonian. II. If our glories now you question, Come to visit us and seeg Then you'll never doubt the statement, NVe're just what we seem to be. , For we'll givc you a good program, Any day that you may comeg Make you wish you were an Emersonian And we 1ind ourselves a-singing all the while. CChorus.j Ring-a-linga! Ching-a-linga! Boom! Tah! Rah! Emersons! Emersons! Ha! ha! ha! It is not necessary in this history to recall the honors of the Emersonian Society in past years, for every one knows in what high honor it has always been held. Our society this year has consisted of about fifty- nine members. We met early in the fall and organ- ized with Lila Daughtrcy as president and Roger Har- rison as secretary. From this time on. great interest was shown and especially in choosing our contestants against the other society and to represent Greenfield High School at Springfield on Thanksgiving. We suc- ceeded in sending our contestant, Vesta Hudspeth, and although she did not gain first, honors, she reflected much honor on our society as well as the whole school. We have'held our meetings every two weeks, and in this way, we could get up much betterprograms. Many of our programs have been of an extra high order and all good. They have either taken up the study of some especial character or topic or consisted of recitations, essays, original stories, poems and mu- sic. Some things which the society especially appre- ciatcd, have been the joint sessions with the other so- ciety on Thanksgiving, Christmas and St, Valentine's Day, and the open sessions of the Arcadian Society. The interest taken by the members in society work has never been surpassed and it can be truly said that the Emersonian Society has kept up its good work all year. A great many of the parts presented showed great skill and wide study in preparation. The rivalry en- tertained with the other society has never been other than fricndly. We can only hope that our society will become even a better and stronger organization in the future than it has been in the past. CLARA BISHOP, Society Historian. E: ,535 gnupg.-,,-1 !E. LWf P '!0
