An enthusiastic group of cashiers, numbering thirty-two, came together for the Hrst meeting and were organized into a club under the guidance of Miss Curtis and Mr. Carr, representative of the Educational Thrift Service of New Jersey. Since its formation the club has held weekly meetings, at which Mr. Carr has been present several times. Here banking questions have been answered and plans made for methods of improving the school record in number of depositors. The Thrift Service has provided cards, maps, and banners to encourage the students to save. At present the club is working on a Thrift Play to be given at some assembly later in the term.

S e c retnry-Treasurer Although we have made ourselves rather obscure around the building, the French Club has really been up and doing . In fact, one class was so enthusi- astic about Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf? , it suggested that Miss Gallagher write a translation of this ditty in French. Then we find another group writes conversations in French every two weeks, and, being one of this assemblage, I do say it not without fretting and sweating that we get to this laborious task . The purpose is to gain facility in speaking. This group had the delightful pleasure of visiting Princeton College, where we were very much impressed with the beautiful surroundings. We are plan- ning a trip to the Metropolitan Museum in the near future and also hope to take in some of the plays at the Fifth Avenue Playhouse. You see our interests are varied. 121

The Annex Glee Club Organized over a year ago, the Lincoln Annex Glee Club has successfully sung many selections under the personal supervision of Mr. Schwarz. Among the songs in our repertoire are Lonely, Secrets , Good Night, My Sweet , and The Two Roses . Out of our Glee Club has been formed a quartet which has sung many times at the exercises of the Henry Snyder junior High classes and has been repeatedly recalled by the worthy principal, Mr. Kerwin. On December eleventh the club was well received at Lincoln main build- ing where it presented a program to the morning assembly. Girl's Vocal Class The Girls' Vocal Class of Lincoln Annex will celebrate its Hrst anniversary in February. The main purpose of the club is to create a taste for music and to develop the voices of the girls. Having started with about eight members, the class now numbers about fifteen. At ten thirty o'clock on Tuesday mornings a rehersal is held under the supervision of Mr. Moritz E. Schwarz. Every Tuesday afternoon at assembly the girls sing in response to the Bib-le reading. They have been invited, together with the glee clubs of the main building and of Dickinson High, to sing on different occasions. Last May they sang at the graduation of the nurses from the Medical Center, which was held at Lincoln High School. They have also sung at other occasions held in other schools. 120
