I-Ii-Y Club The organization of the Hi-Y club took place in Blume High School in January, 1924. The first Hi-Y club was started in the United States in 1870. Every club is affiliated with State, National and International organizations. Every member must be willing to take as his purpose to create, maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character, and take his stand on the Hi-Y Platform, namely: Clean Speech, Clean Living, Clean Sportsmanship and Clean Scholarship. The officers of this club for this year are as follows: president, Winifred Harsh- barger, vice president, Bus Chesbrough: secretary, Bob Kettering: and treasurer, Russel Shlanuon. ' The membership is open to upper-classmen Whose scholarships are equal to athletic eligibility or better, land who successfulllygpass the examinations for entrance. Hi-Y conferences are held in which the members get together and discuss prob- lems which are important to boys. Many people do not realize how much influence .a club, made up of a group oi boys who must have, certain standards, caan have -on the school and c-ommunity. Every one should help keep up these worthy ideals and strive to haave the whole school adopt them in order to put everyone on an equality. The officers, committees, and advisers of the club have much to do with the development of the best in each boy. This organization has accomplished many fine things in the past and are con- tinuing their good Work, It is at this time under the splendid leadership of Mr. Bush and Mr. Steiner. 451010101014 2010101 aio: 31111: 1 :ui -1 1 11111 1 111 111 1 1- iszwiniuxoil ozo ! 1 I u E i i !

' ag . 0 Q - I Girl s Reserves Club 1 ! The Girl Reserves Friendship Club is the Junior Y. W. C. A. and an international Q organization. Definite work with younger girls in the Y. W. C, A. began as early as I 1881 when Oakland, California had as an auxiliary a Girls' Christian Association. A So rapidly did activities for girls grow and so varied were they in their scope and ! variety that in 1918 unity was brought about by the use of the name Girl Reserves. l This organization was started in Blume High School in the spring of 1924. , i The purpose of this club is to find and give the best which means to Promote 2 a spirit of good fellowship among all the girls of -our schoolg to stimulate a sympath- Q etic interest in the people and the problems of the worldg to inspire clean, healthful l livingg and to foster a religion that expresses itself in straight forward conduct and i in helpful relationships with other people. 2 The triangle and circle is the symbol of the Girl Reserves Club. The three sides ! of the triangle represent body, mind, and spirit. , -This organization has as its slogan Face life squarely. 'All upper classmen, who are willing-to fulfill the pledge are eligible to member- : ship. ! The officers of this club for this year are as follows: president, Ruth Koch: vice ! president, Elizabeth Cartmellg secretary, Mary Ellen Maxwell, and treasurer, Ruth ' Clapp. i The Girl Reserves movement is not a plan, it is an idea. It is n-ot ia. set of ways - of doing things, neither is it a. tool: it is an understanding. Q This understanding has, grown out of the experience of younger girls who have Q responded to encouragement to initiate and create, in other words to think for i themselves and to make for themselves. i i 55
