Opportunity is given to learn a great deal about the French people, their customs, music, art, and history. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month and usually some French holiday or custom is celebrated. The program of the past year has been very interesting and helpful. At the first meeting the Social Hall was transformed into a true French restaurant, La Clef d'Or. The members selected their repast from Les Cartes du Jour printed in French, were served by French garcons and used French money. The most important event was the Christmas party. Other holidays celebrated dur- ing the year were: St. Valentine's day, and Fish day, or April Fool's day. The mem- be1's were also initiated into the rules of a regular French football game. A heated battle was fought between the representatives of four French cities, Paris, Marseilles, Grenoble and Dijon. The third annual banquet was held on April 17, at the Creve Coeur Club, at which Professor Algernon Coleman of the Romance department of the University of Chicago, was the principal speaker. There was also a delightful musical program and six of the members presented a'short French play, La Joie Fait Peur, which was very much enjoyed by all.
