Those displaying superior talent in various one-act plays held during the semester are eligible for membership. Meetings are held every second week. Captain Applejackf' a thrilling play of bold, bad pirates, was presented the first semester. Unfortunately Miss Bain was taken ill during the critical period of rehearsals, but George XVesley successfully continued the direction of the play. The Sweet Meat Game was presented later in a city-wide drama contest. C7ui'II111i1lrud

The Junior Club has eighteen active members, being slightly larger than the Senior Club. Thev co-operated with the other club in securing the speaker for the April boys, assembly, Mr. Wfoleott. On May 17, a Mother and Son Banquet was staged iointly with the Senior Hi-Y. The idea of a Mother and Son banquet was rather novel, but it was .1 huge success. More than seventy people atended the aifair. Robert XVhite, president of the Senior Club, acted in the capacity of toastmaster. Miss Melody was the principal speaker of the evening. The regular meetings are held every Wednesday' night at the Englewood Y. Several house meetings and a social in June varied the programs enough to make every meeting interesting.
