The members are now entitled to wear the pin with the flaming torch standing for intelli- gence and learning and bearing the four let- ters L. S. C.

This representative body sponsored by Miss Peterson and Mr. Henderson is composed of a member from each home and each active organization. Its purpose is to foster a spirit of cooperation among the students, faculty, and community, and to consider all student prob- lems. Problems concerning the school and com- munity are discussed, and to the student is given an opportunity to present his viewpoint. Each year the Student Council tries to do some very definite and worthwhile things. This year it carried out this aim by organizing the Zip Club, which did much to create good school spirit. Hction was begun on a permanent school song and school code. Representatives were sent to Sedalia, Missouri, to the Missouri Val- ley Conference of Student Councils. Exchange of convocations with Eairbury High School, which helps create a friendly feeling between the two schools, was sponsored by the Stu- dent Council.
