ACTIVITIES T NASMUCH as the study of agriculture is the prime purpose of The National Farm School, life would be dull and monotonous if not spiced occasionally with extra-curricular activities. Many opportunities in the various fields of action are afforded those energetic students desiring to spread their spheres of influence throughout Farm School ' s social register. It is the more progressive student who feels the need of carrying on these activities and who firmly implants himself in as many fields as he feels capable of carrying. Dances always held a prominent part in the school ' s social calendar. Dances come and dances go but the ones this Class will remember best are the Hobo Dance, Junior Prom ' 40, Sadie Hawkins Dance. Junior Prom ' 42, and The Christmas Ball ' 41. Aside from the lighter phases of extra-curricular functions, there exist many outstanding organizations whose sole strength lie in the hearty co-operation and interest of its individual members. Although we get our specialized vocational training in the classroom and in supervised practice, much valuable instruction and experience is acquired outside the school room. Many a student got his first insight into the value of joint effort by taking part in organizing some enterprise on the school grounds. Many graduates who have made excellent reputations in other fields of enter- prise developed their earliest interest in such fields while doing something along those lines in School. Many students by taking part in the various campus activi- ties found expression for latent talents which they might never have developed. In the field of self-government and personal responsibility, we students in The National Farm School had endless opportunity to exercise our talents. A miniature community of about 200 citizens, we had to adjust our needs and inter- ests to each other. On the Class of 1941 devolved most of the leadership in such group action. On the whole, we believe, our Class conducted itself in those activities very com- mendably. We hope our efforts have stirred responsive chords amongst the under- graduates so that they may carry them on with even greater success.
