 ormato »ocictp HE Kcrmaw Society of the High School of Commerce is now in its second year. The Society is composed of the Senior girls and was organized to promote friendship and good fellowship among the girls. Aside from establishing these, it aids us in an educational way. The members receive practice in parliamentary law and the whole organization is managed in a strictly businesslike manner. The name Kcrmaw is an Orean word, with a secret meaning that is surely an inspiration to those who know it The club meets the second and fourth Wednesday cf each month, and, when business matters are dispensed with, interesting programs arc rendered by the members. The programs embrace both literary and musical forms of entertainment. One of the rules of the Society is that no member is entitled to hold office twice. In this way nearly all members hold seme office during their Senior year, thereby dividing honors equally. The Kcrmaw Society entertained the football team in November and the Ecremmoc Society in January. The members were also guests at a delightful dance given by the Ecremmoc Society in March. As Junior girls become Seniors they are initiated into the mysteries of the Society. Miss Amidon, our faithful adviser, has worked with untiring zeal for the success of the Society and through her thoughtful and helpful suggestions has guided the girls along the right course, thereby winning their love and esteem. A good deed accomplished and sent forth into the world goes on forever, always growing; so it seems the formation of the Kormaw Society was an accomplishment which has given to the world better, wiser, and more intelligent girls.
