Vice President Doris lohnson Secretary Miss Eern Brock Adviser TRAVEL CLUB Everyone looks forward to summer vacations, but the members of the Travel Club make the study of travel a science. They select a des- tination and discuss the most advisable routes to take, hotel accommodations, and modes of transportation. To visualize their forthcoming journey they showed lantern slides and maga- zine pictures of the places discussed. With the aid of travel agencies and road maps, they were able to calculate the expense of the pros- pective trips, and possible stopovers and side trips. This year the Travel Club selected the Western part of the United States for discussion and study. interest in the usual points was heightened by a study of plans for a World Fair in San Francisco this spring and summer. A trip which all members enjoyed was a picnic at Cedar Gap. The mode of transportation was the family car, the side trip a scramble up the mountain, and the expense a Well filled lunch basket, and+We'll let you figure that outl First Row: Bhetta lrvine, Melba Fay Hampton, Evelyn Doris Hampton, Bill Crider, Doris lohnson, Miriam Moore.

FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE Who would not be thrilled to receive a letter from Paris, London, or other foreign cities? lt is the good fortune of this club to have had ac- cess to the names and addresses of foreign children in many lands. Not only does this cor- respondence between countries prove an inter- esting hobby, but it is also helpful in promoting a feeling of good will between the countries. During the club meetings, the members brought the letters received during the past week and read them to the other members. Not only do these foreign friends send interesting informa- tion about their respective countries, but they also send presents every Christmas. Many last- ing friendships were thus made by these ex- change of letters, and the correspondents were always looking forward to the time when they might visit each other.
