4 'wer The Ben Blewett junior High Cabinet ,Wy 'Q' Y HE composition of the Cabinet, better than anything else, illus- trates the great principle under which we are trying to rule our- S A selves, that is a happy combination of teachers' control and pupils' self government. The Blewett Junior High School wants to be by all means a Democracy, and the teacher's func- tion in this Democracy is to help and guide the pupils in their efforts to bel law abiding citizens. Besides the understood meaning of its existence and of its composition, the Cabinet has, like all other democratic bodies, a constitution and certain determined functions. It would take too much space to describe at length all the duties of the Cabinet, but they can conveniently be expressed in three words: To hear, to discuss, to act. It hears, through its members, reports, requests, suggestions, etc., from all the school organizations or from indi- viduals in the student body and in the facultyg it discusses those reports, re- quests, suggestions in a real democratic way, it acts according to the deci- sions made after discussions. For instance, early in the first term this year, a suggestion came from both pupils and the faculty that the school should undertake to raise money for its various activities by the means of a moving picture show. The Cabinet took the matter in hand and carried it through splendidly and successfully with a net profit of Sl,847.3i2. Thanks to this fund, the school now owns a Fine moving picture machine, and all the activities have been provided with very much needed funds for their betterment. As a conclusion, the writer begs to say that he considers it as a special honor to have been a member of the Cabinet for the last two terms. G. De La Roche. The Ninth Grade Congress Wg ' ' 2 HE Ninth Grade Congress has, in the term that has just passed, done many things that will decide the future happenings in D Junior. It is the duty of the congress to voice the sentiment of our various groups into one, that of the Ninth Grade. Through the three congresses by means of their representatives, we bring the topics re- lating to the.whole school to the cabinet. Each of the congresses has a choice of two members to represent it in the cabinet and two for the Blewett B council. In this manner we get the matters through the school, and we do our best to decide for the best. We wish to thank the teachers and pupils of Blewett for their kind co- operation in all activities, and We certainly wish to thank Miss Crecelius for her much appreciated direction and guidance. Our present oiiicers are: 25 -. l. ,V i W, ,A

The Seventh Grade Congress Mg' px HE Seventh Grade Congress meets every Tuesday, the sixth period in Room 109. It consists of a boy and girl from each of ya the seventh grade groups. This Congress makes the laws of the entire seventh grade. The representatives from each advisory group bring suggestions or requests from their own class. These are acted upon by the Congress and the results carried back to the advisory groups. Sometimes the School Cabinet sends questions to be discussed by the Congress. These questions are referred to the advisory groups by the congress members, and the result of the groups' action is finally carried back to the cabinet, by cabinet members.
