The purpose of this club is to foster a better understanding and social spirit among the Jewish girls. Z This club was first introduced into the 13th Street Annex last year. Since ? . . 2 then It has grown and has acquired many enthusiastic members. W'ith the help 5 of our faculty advisor, Miss Guttman, we expect to have many good times. We : would be very glad to admit new members and invite all Jewish girls to attend our meeting and become regular members of this club. At 28th Street, Miss Shapiro is guiding the Menorah to accomplish two am- bitious aims: onc, to spread Jewish culture, and two, to further the social life of the school. At fL0th Street, under the capable supervision of Mrs. Lebowitz, advisor and founder of the ltffenorah Club, the Jewish Society resumed its activities. The meet- ings of this organization are especially devoted to discussions of interesting facts derived from the Jewish religion, customs and holidays. 4993 THE ARISTA School life in Textile High School may be compared to a mountain, with the students ever traveling upward. At the peak is the Arista Society, the honor of reaching which, is the ideal of all students. This height may be reached only by 1 the roadways of excellent scholarship, character, and service. Traveling on these ' roads is not always easy, as there are many pitfalls and sometimes the mists of 5 ignorance obscure the road, so we cannot see our way. But, if one persists, the -A sun of knowledge comes out and then the traveler is rewarded by seeing the heights E nearby. I When the traveler finally reaches the peak, it is more difficult to remain on it than to slide back down the slopes. If he keeps the high standard he has acquired Q while travelling on the roads of character, service and scholarship, he will be able - to remain aloft without much balancing. As Arista members, it is our sincere hope that in the terms to come, the future members of the Arista will maintain not only their ideals, but will also, as we did, H try to encourage and inspire other students to qualify for membership in this splen- did society, the Arista of Textile High School. , E, if YIFUJJIUUUHPQE i721

The Lunehroom Squad is very efficient and In never fails to keep the rooms spotlessly clean. ' E This year the squad is attempting more social activities in order to bring the two groups together. A service squad party is being planned to surpass the sue- 1 cessful one held last term. i THE NEWMAN CLUB ' 5 The Newman Club is an organization for Catholic boys and girls. The pur- V E pose of the Newman Club is to help the students to have a better idea of their re- ligion. At every meeting one of the teachers talks on some phase of their religion. 5 The Newman Club is also a social club and we have many parties and dances every S month. The old members give the freshmen a party at the beginning of the term. 2 Every term all the members of the club go to Mass and receive Holy Com- E munion in a body and after Mass go to some hotel for breakfast. lllany of the teachers attend and the students are looking forward to the date of our next , communion breakfast. llliss lWargaret Williams is the teacher-in-charge at the Thirteenth Street 1 Annex.
