The Secretarial Club The Secretarial Club, the sponsor of which is Miss Laigon, is composed of persons who wish to become private secretaries, or assistants to business executives. The members are taught the facts they should know and told of the qualities they should possess to make good as Office Wives. Especial at- tention is given to those things the members would not.learn in their regular classes. Discussions are held on topics of especial interest to the Business Woman. The members discuss manners and behavior as they affect and are affected by the relationships existing between employer and employee. In addition to discussion of problems of interest to the members, actual situations are created and dramatized. This affords practice as well as knowl- edge of theory. The criticism of the group is applied to this practice. The ex- perience thus gained should prove invaluable to the members in their chosen occupations. Nature Study Club This club has been spending its time largely in the woods. Not only has the study of wild flowers and trees provided boundless pleasure for the bud- ding naturalists, but rocks, soil, drainage, and natural phenomena of any and all descriptions have been considered fitting subjects for their investigation. The distinguishing of wild -flowers was the first goal set for accomplish- ment. Then, the trees were considered, these to be recognized principally by their bark. The study of medicinal plants, such as Ginseng, Foxglove, and Bonset, and the methods of extracting their medicinal bases was especially interesting. .When the club was held indoors by inclement weather the group became a Better Speech Club, concentrating on eliminating from the diction of all, the commonest peculiarities of syntax and pronunciation of our locality. This club is sponsored by Mr. Melley. Gym Club In September, the Gym Club was organized with twenty-two members. The purpose of this club is to give every boy and every girl in the High School who is interested in this type of work, a chance to do it. From this club is chosen the Varsity Gym Team, pictured elsewhere in this volume. Naturally the members of the club are enthusiasts. The chief difficulty Miss Blaney and Mr. Kalen experience is that of putting on the brakes or restraining the members from undertaking more than they can ac- complish with safety. The club works on the following apparatus: parallel bars, rings, horse and springboard, and mats. All exercises are graded and a member can learn the exercises at his own speed. Page Twenty-eight.
