That this is true has 'been proven by the popularity of the film strips and movies shown bythe Projection Club this year. Under the competent and watchful guidance of Mrs. Euverard, this club was formed to train boys in the use of the projection equip- ment. Boys are selected and trained in the eighth grade to continue their service through their high school years. Thus each class has several trained operators to show educational films that team in with the regular classroom work. Many of these Film strips were pur' chased by the school this year. Movie films are borrowed from the State Department of Edu- cation. Librarians are appointed to keep the films on file. Some of the librarians have charge of the grade school films, while other boys handle only the high school films. Seldom a day goes by that we do not find the members of the Projection Club busy showing pictures in the auditorium or in classrooms, The work of the members of this organization is a benefit to the entire school.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY FIRST ROW-Donna Morgan, Marilyn Harvey, Shirley Walker, Jo Ann Milner, Joanne Ol- lila, Carol Jean Anderson. SECOND ROW-Mrs. Euverard, David Wilson, Nancy Weatherston, Edward Clifton, Robert Harvey. Membership in the National Honor Society means that the student has attained the highest honor possible in his high school career. It is to the high school what the Phi Beta Kappa is to the college. Eligibility is limited to a com- paratively small number of students because of the high qualifications of character, scholar- ship, leadership and service which are neces- sary. , Character is shown by personality, reliabil- ity, and honesty in meeting personal obliga- tions and loyalty to the school. Scholarship means that the student is uppermost in his studies by being on the honor roll and by be- ing in the upper third of his class. Leadership means demonstrating a marked degree of ini- tiative in promoting school activities or suc- cessfully holding any school oiiice. Service, according to the society, means a willingness to render cheerfully any service to the school without hope of reward of any kind: to do thoroughly any task assigned in school pro- cedure. The members are chosen by a secret ballot of the high school faculty. Recognized for in- dividual ability and attainment last year were Carol Jean Anderson, Jo Ann Milner and Mar- ilyn Harvey. The four Seniors selected this year were Nancy Weatherston, Donna Morgan, Robert Harvey and Shirley Walker. Three Juniors chosen were Joanne Ollila, Edward Clifton and David Wilson.

SECOND ROW-Mrs. Prochko, Barbara West, Shirley Burgett, Beverly Overly, Margaret Weatherston, Betty Stevens, Joanne Komsie. Remember how proud you were of your first Red Cross pin-'way back in the first grade? You wore it until it rusted. That pin is still a badge of honor, a token of the great work of this benevolent organization. This year the school collected 325.75 in the annual membership drive. Three homerooms. Miss Wallace's, Mrs. Euverard's and Mr. Fos- ter's, had one hundred per cent membership. Four dollars of this money was used to enroll JeH'erson High School in the Ashtabula Coun- ty Junor Red Cross. Ten dollars was given to the Child Welfare Fund to help purchase food and clothing for the underprivileged. The Service Fund also received 310. This fund maintains camps for Red Cross leaders and also provides literature on Red Cross work. Overseas boxes were packed in October and sent to the children in Europe. These con- tained pencils, erasers, crayons, paper, and other school supplies. At Christmas time, thir- ty-two boxes were sent to residents of the County Home. Each room packed a box for an inmate. and a special effort was made to give each one a selection of his favorite food items. The grade school made almost five hundred seasonal favors which were sent to various childrens homes and hospitals.
