At both the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons many baskets of food, clothing, and toys were furnished to make happy those in need. This work was made possible by the wonderful response of the entire school in buying tags on Girls' League Tag Day. At the beginning of the second semester a tea, was given the seventh grade girls, at which time each one was assigned a big sister. l'vIuriel Bell, Loma Kizer, Dorothy Eshom, Rita Lister, Betty Ripple, and Miss Parks attended the Girls, League Convention at Lincoln High School in November. Lighted torches, the symbol of friendship, loyalty, and service, were still shining brightly as this year became history. .+ . FRIENDSHIP CLUB The Friendship Club is a new organization this year, started by the Girls' League. The purpose of the club is to welcome new girls at school and make them feel at home.

I would put it in a box of turquoise blue, And bring it on a morning, If I could find a love song, A cold and foggy morning, A lovely, lilting love song, To brighten up a gloomy day for you. To tell you of my love forever true, I would sing it by your window, If I could catch the starlight, In the garden by your window, The twinkling, silver starlight, Till all the world should know that I would put it in a box of violet hue, I love you. And bring it on an evening, VIRGINIA ROWELL, '29. i.+.,l TO A YOUNG AVIATOR Ruth Lingenfelter, a life member of the Scholarship Society, is at present writing columns for a Washington monthly magazine, and has recently been asked to write for the Inter-Collegiate poetry magazine of the East, The Echo. We sat on a hill-top, you and I, And looked above to the bright, blue sky, And the sky said, Come, and follow me far Where the North wind scrapes on the point of a star. I will give you wings that will soar the blue, That will cut the winds and the clouds in two. And the sky said, Come, and you left me there And the spring winds laughed as they tossed my hair. And you left me there with a kiss and a smile, And followed the sky to the last blue mile, And I wonder how the spring winds feel When they laugh and shout with gleeg In a burning mass of twisted steel They sent you back to me. RUTH LINGENFELTER, '27. . +lT THE EPHEBIAN SOCIETY Every year the graduating class elects a student to the Ephebian Society, one for every forty members. Only students who stand high in scholarship, leadership, and citizenship are eligible. The one that is chosen is presented with an Ephebian ring, and also becomes a member of the Ephebian Society.
