STUDENT GOVERNMENT THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is without doubt the most important school organization, because its members represent the student body. With the aid of the Council adviser. Miss Rose Miller, the Council, now in its twentieth year, has become a highly efficient organization. The duties of the Student Council are many and the re- sponsibilities large. This year, as in years before, the Pep Assemblies, School Clubroom, Lost and Found Department, Noon Movies, supervision of order in the Cafeteria, and a Check Room for all school activities have been under the di- rection of the council members. Since the days of our forefathers the council system has always been the democratic form of government. This gov- ernmental system has lived through many 3'ears of sorrow and joy, poverty and prosperity. Even today this form ol gov- ernment still lives, and the younger generation has adopted it for its form of school government. Thus, we have our Student Council.
