The purpose of the club is to send cards to students who are ill for four days or more, to send cards of sympathy when a member of a student's family dies, and to send flowers if a student's mother or father dies. The money is raised by contri- bution. Ten cents is the amount recommended to carry the club through the year but less is ac- ceptable. Meetings are held dur- ing the assembly period on the fourth Monday of each month. Regular attendance is essential. 123

l l 'n Red Cross The Junior Red Cross of the High School of Commerce, made up of delegates and alter- nates from each home room, is sponsored by Mrs. Anna S. Novak. Through Mrs. Novak's help the Junior Red Cross has grown in our school. The Red Cross Drive was a success this year, with 100W membership. The November cake sale net- ted a profit of 535.00 which was used to finance our Christmas project of gay favors Hlled with candy, which we distributed to an institute for retarded chil- dren. Under Junior Red Cross sponsorship, Christmas decora- tions made by Miss Smo1en's art classes, and cookies made by Miss Keller's Foods Trades classes, were given to patients at a Veterans hospital. The biggest project this year was the high school chest, deco- rated by Miss Smolen's Art classes, and filled by the Junior Red Cross of Commerce. This gift was sent to a school over- seas. 122 'K' Left to right, Row 1: S. F. Silva, V. Janos, M. LaFemina, E. Blair, C. Byrne, L. Sogol, Row 2: A. Conti, B. Henneberry, W, Haem- merle, J.

NATIONAL Home f, ocnm :UT mill? V if 1 The main purpose of the Na- tional Honor Society is to en- courage scholarship and serve the school and the community in any way it can. Its members serve as hosts and hostesses at many school functions, and vol- unteer to give their time and efforts to worthwhile school pro- jects. New members are chosen every year on the basis of schol- arship, character, service, and leadership. They must have at least an 85 per cent average, and must receive a good per- sonality rating from teachers and present members. At the in- duction ceremony, they take an oath to uphold the traditions of the Society, and to serve it to the best of their ability. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Leeth Florey, the National Honor So- ciety has become a constant source of service and pride to the school. Student Council i i The Student Council is com- posed of the four officers of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes, respectively. The pur- pose of the Council is to pro- vide benefits for the students and to promote better under- standing among the schools in the city. It is a member of the Yonkers Association of Student Councils and of the Westchester County Association of Student Councils. The Yonkers Associa- tion meets once a month with the student councils of other city schools to solve common problems. ational Honor Soclety s A .
