The Student Council The record for the sales of War Bonds and Stamps speaks volumes for the activities of the Student Council throughout the year. It may be said that the Council went all outn to increase the sales of War Bonds and Stamps. Wlien the Council began its drive to promote the habit of regular buying of War Bonds and Stamps, the monthly average for sales amounted to less than a thousand dollars a monthg now the monthly average is thirty-five hundred dollars. For eight months of the present school year the members of the Council have made it possible for our school to earn the privilege of flying the Minute Man Flag of the United States Treasury Department. Flying this flag means that ninety per cent of our enrollment has purchased war stamps every month. The total sales of War Bonds and Stamps in our school from September to june amounts to 3532.801 The Student Council has also found time to participate in salvage drives, clean-up campaigns, and fund-raising activities. They gathered contributions to provide gifts for service men and women who were not permitted Christmas furloughs. In May, the members sold tickets for and ushered at the Senior Follier. presented for the benefit of the Scholarship Fund.

t - A f 4. , 1, , 40 Y -A Junior Red Cross Under the direction of Miss Irene Bragan and Miss Mary Helfrich, the Red Cross has taken an active part in strengthening the war effort. The girls have answered the call of their country by knitting innumerable afghan squares and making utility bags for servicemen. At Thanksgiving and Christmas time the art classes, under the super- vision of Misses Cooper, Cannata, and Mannix, made hundreds of menu covers, which were sent to various hospitals throughout Boston. As the school year draws to a close, the members of the junior Red Cross feel that they have helped to bring the day of victory a little closer. MAIICIIA SIEGEL, 44. page rerenty-tbree
