THE STAFF OF THE JUNIOR LIFE. The Reporter's Club 15:7 X , HE Reporters' Club is composed of a member elected from each 3 advisory group. They are all proud of the name reporter . J 5 Readers of the junior Life and the Year Book see evi- , dence of our constant work throughout the year. It is the busi- ness of the reporters to collect news for our paper, boost sub- scriptions and distribute the paper to their groups. So you see we are most business like, and since everyone works hard, we shall not single out anyone for special mention. No one can pass the threshold of Room 220, who has not brought some bit of material for the Junior Life. Seldom does any one try to get by the warder of the door. We have snappy discussions guided by our president, Lucille Powell. We also have an occasional entertainment. Usually before we finish the regular business, the bell rings, and we are off again to collect news for the next meeting. The following are the reporters for the last semester: James Beagle, Mildred Benas, Lucille Bauernfeind, Mary Britton, Sylvia Carafiol, Edward Carlin, William Candy, Jack Corkins, joseph Corn, Muriel Cote, Mary Cranston, Frances Davis, Jessie Gorman, Sophie Harris, Dorothy Hewitt, Ruth Jones, Helen Knight, Helen Levin, Harry Loeb, Edwin Liven- good, Minard McCarthy, Bernard Mayer, Edmund McCarthy, Helen McKee, Southwood Morse, Mae Mulholland, Wilma Nichols, Margaret North, Lucille Powell, Robinette Robinson, Sophie Rovin, Norton Schafer, Bertha Schultz, David Shanbath, Robert Short, Forrest Seay, Edwin Steele, Lillie Stein, Her- mine Steinbiss, Gerald Ulria, Sam VanDynue, Willard Turley, William Whalen, Virginia Williamson. Miss Gilmore and Miss Thomure are the sponsors. I5

Club Reporter The Meaning of Junior High Y'-,Q JUNIOR High is an organized school which permits pupils of 1525 the early, adolescent period to live the most abundant life pos- KQ gg sible. A reader of The Junior Life is made conscious of the ,ggjzeglgg multiplied activities in which the pupils of Blewett Junior participate. It is with much pleasure and profit that I read each issue of your valu- able paper always laden and sparkling with the real and positive experiences of the boys and girls who are given the opportunity accepted so promptly and splendidly of participating in every phase of activity of the life of a school which is endeavoring to put into practice the ideal so true, that training for citizenship like any other training must come through practice. 1' gfbg fs I mention this because some of the critics of Junior High confuse pupil participation in the co-operative life of Blewett with the traditional notion of ll'
