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

ZIGZAG DOLLIES OF M. H. S. just twenty-six sweet coeds who certainly know how to hunch their cute shoulders and manipulate them there eyes while moanin low those blues songs. These little lassies and their faculty spon- sor, Miss Lillian Hart, have given M. ll. S. many a novel program, and have made for themselves quite a reputation with their cleverly planned entertainments which are carried out in song. They specialize in popular music of the day and often substitute original words to fit a particular occasion. Their charming costuming and attractive backgrounds help them to attain their successes. This four- ear-old orrfanization is com- . h n 1 posed of girls from the eighth, ninth, and tenth ears whose mrimarv nur mose it is, to Y. . entertain. Starting with ten charter members. the club was enlarged to twenty-six members. lt was first organized for a Latin Club pro- gram, but has since become a permanent group in club activities. All must belong to the Latin Club in order to be eligible in Musicae Latinae. One of the purposes of this club is to develop talent by regular practice so that it may be able to furnish entertainment not only for Latin Club meet- ings, but for many other activities and oc- casions as well. ln addition to the enter- taining function the organization endeavors to promote a friendly-get-together spirit among the girls. Some of the outstanding programs given during the year were the one given in hon- or of the Il basketball team, one dedicated to the charter members of Musicae Latinae, and a lovely springtime program. The girls and their sponsor also brought several of their delightful entertainments to various organizations in town. M. H. S. is very proud of her talented group of crooners gleaned from the Latin department. President-Phyllis Zenor. Vice-President-Martha Tackitt. Secretary-Treasurer-Elizabeth Moore, VENI, VIDI, VICI Something different! Here you are! The Latin club included beginning Latin stu- dents the past year, a ruling different from its usual custom. The arrangement has proved very satisfactory, for it gave the older students an opportunity to become better acquainted with the freshmen, and it gave the freshmen the advantage of contact with the Caesar and Vergil students. The aim of the Latin Club is to foster an interest in the subject of Latin and to pro- mote sociability among students. llesides being an instructive organization it is a de- lightful and amusing club with always an entirely new and interesting program. No Latin Club meeting was ever a Hop. Expenses have been taken care of by the dues of the club. The Latin club defrays the contest expenses, which include awards to winning contestants. This spring they also offered five dollars in prizes for projects in the Latin classes. The meetings also have been different in this one respect this year. They have been of a miscellaneous nature. Each division, Vergil, Caesar, and first year classes, have had charge of one program. On every occasion the classes have com- peted to make their entertainment a greater success. This is the tenth year of the Latin Clubs existence and during these ten years it cer- tainly has accomplished many things. Be- sides being an instructive organization, it is a delightful and amusing club with al- ways an entirely new program. No Latin Club meeting was ever a Hop. Four years in high school without mem- bership in Latin club is unthinkable to Latin students. Moreover, once a member, al- ways a member, if one wishes. The success of this club is due to the influence of its sponsors, Miss Lillian Hart and Mrs. Lida Prewitt. The officers for the current year of the Latin club are: President-Susan Hussey. Vice-president-Sam Eubank. Secretary-treasurer-Genevieve llaker. This page through the courty of Hubbard Lumber Company
