67' I Re erve Introducing El Dorado High Schoolls largest organization, the Girl Reserves, which was composed this year of 175 girls. G. R. has contributed much to the spiritual and soc- ial life of the school and community during the past nine months. The year started off with a grand get-acquainted party for all members. At Thanksgiving time the G. R. joined with the Hi-Y in sponsoring the bringing of food and the delivery of baskets to twenty-one needy families. The next activity was the annual Christmas party at which a group of underprivileged children were entertained. In February every one joined in the exchange of Valentine lovenotes with friends and classmates. The climax of the social year arrived March tenth when the Mother and Daughter banquet was held and pronounced a great success. In January eight girls attended the Conference at Augus- ta and came home brimming over with new ideas. Throughout the year the G. R. with the Hi-Y sold candy or refreshments at school and at athletic events. The G. R. enjoyed many fine weekly meetings, readings, instrumental and vocal solosg panel discussions, guest speakers, and sing-togethers both alone and with the Hi-Y. This sum- mer as in the past the G. R. will help pay the expenses of a small group of its mem- bers who will enjoy a week at Camp Wood. CABINET MEMBERS President .............. Peggy Rae Fite Vice President ............

fum e armer: The F. F. A. is organized for the purpose of teaching boys the most scientific and economical way to farm. Since El Dorado is lo- cated in one of the greatest agri- cultural districts of America, it is only natural that our organization is a successful one. One of our outstanding achieve- ments is a cooperative hog raising project which gives the boys an opportunity to start a good enter- prise with little cost and which is a source of profit to the Chapter. At the beginning of the year we had 50 boys enrolled in agriculture with a total number of 114 enter- prises with stock and equipment inventoried at a net worth of 569,800.00 Four big spring contests are held for the judging of crops, poul- try, and livestock. A shop team has also developed which competed in the state contest. The Chapter is aiding in the de- fense program by putting all pos- sible money in defense stamps, urging that all boys Who can, en- roll in a First Aid Class offered at the school, and requiring that exch boy repair a farm implement in our shop. This repair Work aids the farm labor problem and does away with the purchase of new parts. The F. F. A. is a fine organization and much of its suc- cess is due to Mr. Jesse Cooper, instructor of agriculture. few -.gQg,5sx'9lf
