She shows by her actions she's very sincere, But her modesty's bound to show through. A sponsor we just had to have you may know With whom we the burden might share. In the English department we looked high and low, Miss Odell was the one who was there. Now English and literdture's mostly her line Her programs and plays are delights When it comes to the fun she'll not stay behind If you're troubled she brings you to light.

Winter The first step towards organizing this society was taken in the school year of 1907-08, when the students thought it ,necessary to have two literary societies. It was founded for literary End social purposes, and it has in a general way tried to follow the lines laid out by its oun ers. ,The aim of the society is to maintain a high standard in literary work, The advantages offered by the literary society to its members, in the way of valuable training in public speaking, debating, reading, etc., have been often and well demonstrated. While the aims towards literary ideals have not been shaken, the social features of the society have been found to be beneficial and uplifting, and in consequence have received more and more attention, without in any way violating the spirit, the traditions, and the principles of thorough democracy, which have always characterized and permeated the organization. At the reorganization of this literary society, at the beginning of the school year, arrange- ments were made to provide for a meeting every Friday night, consisting of an open and closed meeting, alternately, in which the aim was to create a closer fellowship and literary spirit among its members. ' Each year a debating team is chosen to represent this society in a inter-society debate with the Davisson. The teams of past years have won several times, and, with the excellent material on the team this year, we feel confident that we may be able to carry off the honors for another year.
