KGLJMCGMJ BEAUMONT PHILATELIC SOCIETY ANDREW TAYLOR Some people, at the very mention of stamp collecting, turn away and say. Not interested. Why? It could be that at some time they did collect stamps but had lost interest. Perhaps you are in the uninterested class. You need something to stir up your interest. The Stamp Club is the thing that will bring back that old-time' interest. We have a magazine which includes all the new issues and has many interesting ideas and articles by famous philatelists. After our business meet- ing, which usually lasts between thirty and forty minutes, we trade stamps and sometimes someone brings approval sheets. The number of philatelists in the United States has been estimated at about one million. Obviously this estimate includes many of you here in Beaumont. Why not come and join the club? We meet every Thursday in 217 immediately following the seventh hour.

Cacluceud , ... SHAKESPEARE CLUB MARIE PRANGE 1 . The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, ls fit for treason. strutagems, and spoils. The motions of his spirit are dull as night And his affections dark as Erebus. Let no such man be trusted. ln these lines William Shakespeare suggests the larger aim of this club-to develop the music within the members themselves, who, without this music, says Shakespeare, cannot be trusted. Early in the term the club selected for study, The Merchant of Venice, which, incidentally, is the source of the quotation above. The choice was from the works of Shakespeare that are not offered in the regular English courses. The acts are assigned to different groups for the study of the roles. Then. at each meeting, one act is presented until the whole play has been completed. A characteristic tradition of the club is that each member responds to the roll call with a quotation from the play being presented. Under Miss Donnelly, our first and only sponsor until this year. the club won a place of distinction among Beaumont organizations. Her withdrawal is greatly regretted, but We are happy that Mr. Enzinger has consented to work with us. Fifth-, sixth-, and seventh-term students who have the E and G habit should ponder the advisability of joining us. lContinued' on page 1233 One Hundred Ten
