NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Character, leadership, service, and scholar- ship were the standards by which members of National Honor Society were elected by their fellow students and the faculty. All upperclassmen scholastically in the up- per quarter of their class, were eligible for election into this honor society. In the elec- tion each junior and senior voted on the eligi- bility list of his respective class. The faculty then voted on the nominees of both classes. The highest fifteen per cent of the senior nominees and highest five per cent of the junior nominees are admitted to the society. The present junior class will elect an ad- ditional eight per cent in their senior year. juniors are automatically members in their senior year if their present scholastic rating is maintained. D. A. R. AWARD Leadership and participation in school ac- tivities, were the standards by which her fel- low students and faculty chose Evelyn Carl- son to be i943-I944 D. A. R. Citizenship award winner. All Illinois winners' names were sent to Springfield where the state repre- sensative was chosen by lottery.
