O THE NATIONAL CONSISTICNT with the aims of the Har- per educational program, scholastic ad- vancement has been the outstanding achieve- ment of the past year. Scholarship was given an impetus by the recent organization of the Harper Chapter of the National Honor Society. The object of the organization is Hto create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in the students of Harper High Schoolfl Character is recognized as being demonstrated by such qualities of personality as honesty, reliability, promptness, achievement, and morality, as are indispensable to the finest young manhood and womanhood. For membership, a student must have an average of 2.5 in his major subjects and must pass in all his minors. The prospective member must also do his part in supporting the intra-curricular activities of the school. Highway or Shield staff, secre- tarial work on the library staff, service as a HONOR SOCIETY clean-up supervisor, hall guard duty, perfect at- tendance, and leadership in recognized clubs all render points toward membership in the Honor Society. In addition, a faculty council must agree on the generally fine character of the student. To retain membership when once awarded, the student must maintain a 2.5 point average and gain at least one service point each ensuing se- mester. Charles Doorley leads the honor students in the capacity of president. Cathryn Roethle holds the position of vice-president. Irene Semeniuk is the secretary and John Sandora, the treasurer. The faculty council sponsoring our chapter of the National Honor Society is headed by llr. Kehoe as chairman. lldr. O'Keeffe is press agent for the group. Xliss Heineck is treasurer. Nliss Tracy and Bliss Hedeen are members of the advisory board. lyliss Hedeen, chairman, Nliss llduldoon, and lllr. Bils compose the com- mittee supervising all honor assemblies. fron!

Requirements for membership are highg only students with high grades are admitted. No student with a mark below HE may become a member. Pins were awarded to those students who at- tained membership, to be their possession until their scholastic standing goes below the re- quired standard. Not only does the group aim to uphold those ideals of concentration and work necessary to meet the scholarship requirements, but, newly- organized as they are, an active social program for the year was planned by the board with the assistance of the adviser, llrs. Barnaby. , A .f , K, Nliss Allin was the first speaker to address the organization and the story of her exciting escape from Europe at the time of the World VVar held the interest and claimed the enthusi- asm of all attending, who afterward made sev- eral requests for Hmoref, The first social event of the group was the dance held on blay 20, at which the board mem- bers entertained the rest of the Legion, the IHCIT1- bers of Harper's chapter of the National Honor Society, and the faculty advisers of both organ- izations. A program was provided and refresh- ments were served. Semi-annual dances will be given by the Legion of Honor to which the entire school will be invited. One will be held the last Week of Uctober and will be a Hallowe'en eventg the other will be held the third week of April. Pro- ceeds will be used for the Hschool beautiful program planned by the Legion of Honor.
