When we joined, we knew we were preparing ourselves for the future, such as to meet any situation which might arise, and to know just what to do, and when. This club was organized on September 23, 1937. All officers were elected during the first meeting. Jeanne Swart was elected president-, Sadie Peterson, vice-president-, Mary Jean Bernard, secretary, and Ralph Myers, treasurer. We chose Miss Hewitt as sponsor of our club. We began this organization with twenty-two members. By the next meet- ing three more had joined, making a total of twenty-five. At our meetings, xve discussed and answered various problems about good manners. We demonstrated introductions and behavior in public places. As a result of this organization, we have learned to conduct ourselves properly and have put the knowledge of etiquette into practice. The Grade Etiquette Club ivas organized in the same manner and for the same purpose as was the High School Etiquette Club. The only difference being that it is composed of members of the seventh and eighth grades, with Mrs. Bernard as sponsor. THE FOREIQU CORRESPOUDEUCE CLUB TJoe Foreign Correspondence Club was organized for the purpose of mak- ing friends abroad through personal correspondence. This is the third year students of our school have been interested in corresponding with students of English in foreign countries. This year letters have been written to England, Hawaii, Philippine Islands, Australia, Germany, Peru, Wales, Denmark, Czechoslovakia and other coun- tries. The officers of the club are-. Genevieve Kooy, president-, Ruth Dexter, vice- president; Cornelius Swier in ga, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Llewellyn is our sponsor. Page twenty-five

JUNIOR ATHLETIC CLUB In September of this school year the Junior Athletic Club, organized by students of the seventh and eighth grades, elected the following officers : presi- dent, Arthur Schoonveld ; vice-president, Howard Rowen; secretary-treasurer, Roberta Stevenson. The purpose of this club is to promote sportsmanship in every way possible. Some of the activities of the club were: selling D. H. S. arm bands and laps of school colors, selecting grade yell leaders for grade basketball games and for assisting with high school games, and making and posting No Smoking ” signs in different parts of the building for the benefit of visitors who come to the school on different occasions. Through co-operation of outsiders and the school the club attempts to keep the school gymnasium in good order. The one goal for which the Junior Athletic Club strives is to help make the DcMottc School highly respected in all of its relations with others. Page twenty-seven
