During the second semester the council was particularly active. As an aid toward national defense a tin toil drive and a paper drive were sponsored by the council. A committee was appointed whose duty it was to organize noon programs. These programs created interest in school attairs among the students. A box in which suggestions were placed tor im- provements in government and activities around school was put in a convenient location. The council then considered all suggestions, some of which were excellent. One ot the sug- gestions which was carried out pertained to changing the show case. A new method-the honor system-was inaugurated in or- der to keep the cafeteria area clean. lt was believed by this system that the students would have more pride in the school, A committee made up of council members was appointed by the council and helped with a dance, which was sponsored by the P.T.A. The student council approved an organization which would help promote health. This group, known as the Medical corps, distributed bulletins which made students conscious ot the problem. The adviser ot the student council is Mr. Kenneth C. Mitchell. Zl Photo by Mark Speer I xt I pf 'ii 'ff

The four officers of the Girls' league are elected each semester by the girls. These offi- cers in turn elect a cabinet of committee heads who efficiently carry out the many activities of the league. Any girl who desires may become a member of a committee. At the beginning of each semester a Big and Little Sister Party is given in order to welcome the new girls and familiarize them with the school. A worthwhile assembly is sponsored each semes- ter by the Girls' league. ln order to acquaint the mothers with the school and with the teachers and to make them feel more at home, two teas are given by the league each semester, one for the lower grade mothers and one for the upper grade mothers. A show, in which all the dolls dressed by Beverly girls for those of Albion street are presented, is held in order to help finance the Christ- mas party for Albion street school arranged by the Girls' league cabinet. Galce selling and a lug- gage day were two other money-raising means, which resulted in the fixing of broken toys for a toy loan library. 22
