All the ideas, however, centered around one big aim. That was to encourage students to continue Latin for four years. ln carrying out that idea the club has been responsible for the delightful lecture given by Professor D'Ooge of the University of Michigan. He had many objects of interest to show the audience and gave the students inter- esting verbal pictures of Italy. Posters have been made to create a larger interest in Latin. A bulletin board now holds a permanent place in room 127, on which there are posted articles and illustrations which demonstrate the use of Latin in the business world of today. Interesting programs have been given and mythical stories told at the meetings, all of which deal with Latin and the Roman ideas and customs. Through these meetings a close relationship between the members and fac- ulty advisers has been formed. The officers who have guided this ambitious club during the fall term were: First consul, Chandler Collingeg second consul, Clemence Yan De Sande: scriba, ,lean Ernst: pontifex maximus, Margaret lYilson. The offi- cers,who led the club during the spring term were: First consul, Suzanne Marting: second consul, 'lean llegwoodg scribe and pontifcx maximus, -lean Ernst. The teachers who have stood by and aided the club in all its work were Miss Cooper and Miss Sheehan, The members feel that all their eiforts have not been unfruitful and know that they have gained much knowledge by the organization.

Alcott The Alcott girls of the last year have been bubbling over with pep and have shown their spirit by their many activities. A week-end party at Grosse Isle afforded great amusement and rumors have spread in all corners of the school as to the good times the girls had. The Alcotters, feeling that by this time they were well acquainted, de- cided to make their mothers known to the club, and to solve this problem. they gave a musical tea, held at -lean McKaig's home. Money, a word that speaks for itself, played an important part in the minds of the girls. All possible ways and means were talked over and linally the club hit upon the plan of selling pictures of the football team. This was indeed a good plan and the hole in the treasury was filled up somewhat. The idea of aid to others is never forgotten among this active group of girls. They spent an afternoon of their Christmas holidays singing carols and decorating the Arnold Homeg also remembering a children's hospital with a basket of toys. To uphold the standard of scholarship was another question facing them. This they did by giving a medal to the best all-round student that graduated in the '24 class. Not too busily occupied in her own work, Aclott lifted her head and heard the call of the opera, answering by sending her best to aid in its progress by ushering. WVith an eye ever ready for business, Alcott appointed herself chief candy seller to those in need of something sweet to eat on opera nights. Alcott owes much of her success these past terms to her faculty advisers, Miss Hill, Miss Neil, and Miss Wy'man. MILDRED Hmm 99

The Greek Club In the fall of 1925 the Greek Club reorganized with members from a new Greek class which has been formed. They chose as their oflicers for tllff fall semester Dorothy Griflith, presidentg Eleanor Cooke, vice-presidentl and Frances Jennings, secretary-treasurer. Throughout the year the mem- bers of Kziloi Kai Agzithoi enjoyed programs consisting of selections, in English transalation, from Lucian, Herodotus, Euripides, Thueydides, Hesiod, and many others. :Xt Christmas 3 lighter program was given, composed of an amusing original play which was Il parody on the three Greek drzimatists, Euripides. Sophocles. and Aristophanes. The oilicers chosen for the second semester were: Helen Henson, presi- dent: Eleanor Cooke. vice-president: and Frances Jennings. secretary- treasurer. Early in 'lime Kaloi Kai Agzitlioi, chziperoned by Miss lioehm and Miss Berkaw, its faculty advisers. made an expedition tu ,Xnn .Xrbor for a brief introduction to college life. lYhile in Ann Arbor they had the good fortune to meet Professor Bonner. who exhibited to them some interesting manuscripts in the original :ind also some archeologicril remains which are preserved there, These are kept under lock and key most of the time. so Kaloi Kai .-Xgathoi was proud to be allowed the privilege of seeing them. They explored Ann .lkrboris wonderful library and gained a goofl knowledge of the campus. The Kaloi Kai Agzitlioi feels that it has thus far sustained its purpose. which is to give to each member a knowledge uf Greek literature in English translation. and to further interest in the classics.
