NATURE STUDY CLUB The dissecting of worms, frogs, and fish has provided for a large part of the activity of the Nature Study Club for the past year. Moving-pictures and biological walks also found a place on the schedule. Many of the members were sur- prised that the study of nature was so expansive. Through the club meet- ings many of the members have come to know and appreciate the value and extensiveness of nature. We thank Miss Petzinger, our sponsor, for opening the wide door of nature to the members ot this club. AHEHEHY ELUB The Archery Club is composed of those students who are enthusiastic about improving their shooting ability and skill in handling a bow and arrow. This enthusiasm is turned into reality through the expert guidance of the sponsor of the club, Mr. Gesink. The nineteen members who be- long to the club are divided into two teams. These two teams alternate each week in their shooting, which is done in the gym, where a target is set up. Score is kept of each ot the teams, thus encouraging keen competition. vfzwlggldnw admdHaiuw Lett to Right fbottom rowl: 1. Zegers, A. Trouwborst lTreas.l, Miss L. Petzinger fSponsorl, D.

Through combined effort, the members of the Chess Club have become better ac- quainted with the game and more proiicient in the strategy of the moves that are made. To the majority ot the members, chess has proved to be a game of fascination, after their understanding of the game was developed. STAMP CLUB Looking into Room 5 during activity period, held on alternate Wednesdays, one would see the Stamp Club in a hubbub ot activity. The time allotted for the meetings was usually spent in buying, selling, and trading stamps and looking at the stamp collections of the fellow-members. Through our subscription to the magazine Stamps we were better able to keep in- formed of the latest issues of stamps and other philatelic activities. iv Left to Right lseatedl: H. Roukema, i -Q W.

Each of the twenty-one student librarians has her own special task. such as repairing books, sending out overdue notices, and helping to shelve the new books, in addition to checking books in and out. We wish to thank Miss Vanden- burg, our sponsor, for all the able assistance and helpful information she has so willingly given to us. CURRENT EHHISTIANITY Under the guidance of Rev. N. H. Beversluis, the Current Christianity Club has had many stimulating discus- sions on the general topic- The Chris- tian in the Modern World. In treating this topic the following phases were considered: Should Christian Young People Attend the Movies? Should the Sale of Comics be Discontinued? , and Is it Right for a Christian Girl to Wear Cosmetics? During the course of the year we had the opportunity to visit several missions and also to attend a religious service in the Passaic County lail in Paterson.
