Efhirtren Cllluh The Thirteen Club has been, and always will be the first club of Manual, and this year's club has held up if not raised the reputation of the former Thirteen Clubs. It is here in Central Manual that the Ig Club originated, now we have many followers, as there is a Ig Club in our sister school, Northeast Manual, also one in the Girls' High School, over which we are not very enthusiastic, but still it shows the popularity of our Club. This year we have had more social events outside of the thirteen meetings at the homes of our members than the previous Chapters of the Club, as we had two banquets held during the Winter months, while in the early Spring we had a dance, which was pronounced by all who attended as a great success, while each one of our thirteen meetings was looked forward to with much pleasure, and we will always remember the good times we had when as staid Seniors of Dear Old Central Manual, we met at our fortnightly meetings, our final meeting being held at the home of Gross. where we made arrangements for the continuance of our Club after we leave school, under the name of the Last Man's Club, which every previous Thirteen Club has done, also setting out dates for the meeting' Of the Club three times a year which are around the holidays, when some of the fellows are home from college and able to attend these meetings. The nucleus for next year's club has already been elected, who will elect the remaining mem- bers into the club, and thus the club will go on year after year, continuing in its popularity, and the acquisition of good times and the holding of many social events which will place it far above other school clubs, as it is at the present time.
