t aiMBii The Student Qouncil As an integral part of the Home Room organization of Central Junior, the Student Council has rendered important service. It has been an effective agent in providing leadership for various school projects and has helped greatly in the arousing of an aggressive school spirit. Each Home Room has two delegates to the Council, the president and one other elected member. One-half of the Council membership changes each ten weeks. Officers of the Council are chosen from its membership, the present officials being named below.

MHngHHHHaaHB M m mmEssssmBssBsss Home c Rpom THE daily program provides a twenty-minute period during which every pupil is given an opportunity to be engaged in home room activities. Among many ho me room activities which teachers and pupils have suggested as legitimate, ten are listed below. These suggestions are based on thirty weeks ' experience. The home room organization should be an important factor in decreasing our tardies and our unnecessary absences, having our excuses in on time, properly caring for our building, using the street cars in a proper manner, bringing up lesson assign- ments, and especially initiating, organizing and directing extra-curricular activities of the school. 1. As nearly as possible all necessary announcements should be made through the home room. 2. Thrift campaigning, through school banking, should be the leader each Tuesday. 3. Sharing in the pleasures or duties of keeping halls, walls, floors, steps, drink- ing fountains, lavatories, lockers, and lawns neat and clean. 4. Acting as a clearing house for collections and distributions for the Search- light, the Ceejay, the Red Cross, the Near East, the paper and magazine drives and handling the sale of tickets for school plays and athletic events increases the range of usefulness of the home room. 5. Keeping attendance records and boosting for regular and punctual attendance. 6. Demonstration of a school song or a school yell composed by some member of the home room. 7. Definite civic program work e. g., improvement of parliamentary procedure; important rules and regulations of Board of Education; brief biographies of noted men and women and patriotic exercises for special days. 8. Discussion of advantages of certain clubs or societies by those who are mem- bers, assembly activities (stressing values), current events, each pupil ' s hobby, courtesy while riding street cars, grades, reasons for failure and steps to overcome and honor requirements. 9. Supplying flags, book showers for the Library, the annual Senior High School enrollment, are occasional activities of much value. 10. Discussion of questions relative to lunch room. Having 47 tables in the cafeteria so that all pupils of any home room could be responsible for one table, marked with placard of home room number. Since we have four 25-minute periods for lunches, about one-fourth of each home room, approximately ten, fill the table each of the four periods. This offers opportunity for closer acquaintance under ideal social conditions. Let us be careful not to so overload the home room with things-to-be-done that we shall lose sight of its real significance as a home, and, therefore, a place to generate energy, kindle enthusiasm, rouse aspiration, promote loyalty, encourage friendliness, and help to make each pupil a worthy citizen of his little world.
