LA SENORITMQ Q no, THE ART CLUB VERNETTE RIPLEY, President LUCIA RAYMOND, Secretary BETTY LEE BRADY, Treasurer During the past season Vernette Ripley, the president, has received enthu- siastic response to her program calling for concentration in drawing and color. The members have enjoyed the opportunity to build up ability of expression and to begin to feel confident of themselves in creative effort. There has been much improvement in the work of all of the members, and in some cases the gain in power has been remarkable. The work of the secretary and treasurer has been smoothed out by the help, in decorum and promptness, of the members. The club is about to undertake the painting of scenery, always a part of the year's most enjoyable work. As one looks back over the year, the accomplishment seems one of which every member should be pround. 2 I .r- fm . --1 iii, .3 so isa--

LA SENORITA . . Hanoi ' ' V? T W-- I 1 SOCIAL SERVICE CLUB The Social Service Club has been helping a family of twelve children and father this year. The mother is not living, and the father has been unable to work because of an accident. At Thanksgiving and Christmas they were given turkey dinners. Clothes and toys were also provided. Every Wednesday five or six members of the club go to the Orthopaedic Hospital to entertain the children, and the rest of the club members sew and make scrap books. A bazaar, given in November, left the club with a goodly sum in the treasury. The officers were: Patricia Ruckstell, president, jaqueline Smith, vice- president, and Kathlyn McCartney, secretary-treasurer. THE MARLBOROUGH CHARITY FUND Marlborough has always been very happy to make as large a contribution as possible to the charity organizations of this city. Each month every girl in the school gives what she feels she is able and willing to give, and the sum is used in aiding some worthy cause, During the first semester of this year the donations were sent to the Ortho- paedic Hospital. The program was altered somewhat during the second term, the charity funds being given both to the Orthopaedic and the juvenile Protective Association. The officers of the Marlborough Charity Organization were: Wilma Gartz- mann, treasurer, and Betty Black, assistant treasurer. 2 1 I T' ,,-s .. -1 'Wd l:A'.1Ei'k 1'-'P -A-ls 'I-J 513 --wif 49 kk P-
