.- fee- .qv - THEY'LL KEEP THE HOME FIRES BURNING Boys, pick your futures from the above picture, for these are the young ladies who can keep your home fires burning, and the steak from burning. Anything in the sew- ing line is just a snap for them. Martinsville High School can never be criticised for possessing prowess and ability to win basketball games alone. One has, but to glance at the number of future home- makers on the opposite page to realize this. ln the picture you will find many prize win- ners in the state as well as county shows, who in addition to bringing honors to them- selves and the high school are obtaining sys- tematic training and efficiency in this voca- tional club which has replaced the old pick- up method of gaining this knowledge. The Martinsville 4-ll Club was organized several years ago as a home economics club to promote greater interest in sewing, can- ning, baking, and homemaking. Mrs. Hoch- stetler and Mrs. Reeves now sponsor this organization. The club functions all the year. It is re- organized each spring semesterg new mem- bers are enrolled, and officers elected. The Martinsville 4-ll Club has proved its worth in the large number of prizes won by almost every member in the club. Many of these prizes have amounted up to nice totals for the members.

Besides gaining much valuable experience and also free lunches, the girls receive full credit for their work in the cafeteria. The class is under the supervision of Mrs. Hochstetler. Mrs. Ennis and Mrs. Rothwell assist in the kitchen. The class is reorganized each semester. Six girls work in the cafeteria at one time. One of the girls attends to the sandwich making, one dips soup, another serves vege- tables, while two others take care of salads and desserts. Mrs. Ennis and Mrs. Both- well cook the foods. The different duties are assigned to the girls for a certain length of time, whereupon the girls exchange places. ln this way the girls receive many and varied types of training. In addition to serving the food, the girls assist in cleaning up the cafeteria and kitch- en before they go to their next classes. The Martinsville High School cafeteria is an attractive place in which to eat. It is decorated in tones of tan and brown. Last year new tables and chairs were installed. New silverware stamped with the design M, H. S. Cafeteria was also purchased last year. Potted plants and ferneries add to the attractiveness of the cafeteria. A candy counter placed within the cafe- teria does quite a thriving business with sweet-tooth M. H. S. The proceeds from the sale of candy financed the purchase of the new silverware. The high school cafeteria does not operate for profit, but merely aims to meet ex- penses. This page through the courtesy of Martinsville Candy Kitchen

NVill the meeting please come to orderjl is requested by the president, Katherleen Ledbetter. Mildred, will you read the min- utes and call the roll? Let each member answer the roll by, bringing forth her con- tribution to the charity fund. As each member files up, the auditorium is turned into a variable vegetable Cannery. By now, you might think this is some charity or wel- fare society and in fact you are not wrong in thinking sog but this organization is really the Sunshine Club. They not only look after the needy, but also help others by their sunny dispositions. A delegation from the society attended the State Sunshine convention held at Mount Vernon, Indiana, April l and 2. Miss Susan Hussey of the local society was state president for the year. She presided at all the meetings held during the convention. Those that attended the convention from here were Susan Hussey, Katherleen Led- better, Mildred Reynolds, Dorothy Means, Martha Henderson, Elizabeth Bailey, Max- ine Guynn, and the two sponsors, Mrs. DeNVitt and Miss Dorsett. At Christmas this society plays the rolc of Santa Claus and makes many little chil- dren happy with the toys they bring to them. This club has also aided to change room 37 into a club room for girls. Their sponsors, Mrs, DeXVitt and Miss Dorsett act as safety valves and do not let them run riot with all their ideas. This club certainly puts the sun in the sky with all their sunny ideas. Officers: President-Katherleen Ledbetter. Vice l res.-Katherine Roberts. Secretary and Treasurer-Mildred Rey- nolds. Sponsors-Mrs. DeXYitt and Miss llorsett. THE BLUE TRIANGLE Be gracious in manner and impartial in judgment, says the very exacting code of the Girl Reserves. Their symbol, the blue triangle, goes even farther when it demands that they live up to this code in body, mind, and spirit. This junior organization of the Y. VV. C. A. takes its members to the girls' room every Wednesday at the activity period. Here Virginia Zenor swings the gavel with as much dignity as a national club presi- dent, and vice-president Brown goes about creating a friendly atmosphere among her fellow members. Martha Moore holds tight the strings of the money bag while Dorothy McNeff, the chief scribe, sings off the min- utes of the previous meeting for objections or corrections. Miss Ossenberg and Miss Gray settle any disputes that arise and man- age things in general. Those thirty G. R.'s started off the year with a picnic on Cunningham hill. Soon afterwards they had a pitch-in supper at the Duncan cabin at Bethany Park. Charity work was one of their duties, and they distributed baskets to worthy families at Yuletide. On New Year's day they gave a tea for former members, and near Valentineis Day they threw a party for the Triangle Chumsu who were chosen from the fresh- man class. Then, too, the G. R.'s did their bit by presenting a fitting assembly pro- gram on Good Friday. Louise Elliott, as chairman of the pro- gram committee, has been instrumental in preparing the programs and activities of the society. The two chief schemes this year for lill- ing Martha's money bag were selling candy jointly with the Sunshine Society at the basketball games, and selling boxes of gay Christmas cards during the month of De- cember. Mrs. NVilbur NVilhite, Mrs. ll. ji. Martin, and Mrs. Oscar Marshall have proven them- selves to be very helpful Girl Reserves sponsors in many ways this year. Here's to the Girl Reserves and may their spirit ever live on. This page through the courtesy of Grace Theater O
