It meets once a week and opens with a short business meeting after which various duties necessary in running a library are carried out. Besides actually working with books, bulletin boards are prepared to draw interest to the library. Activities planned and carried out by the Library Club were' The P.T.A. Program-members dressed to represent book characters which parents tried to identify. This was a success and the club was requested to present a similar program for the Howard County Teachers Meeting in December. Everyone had much fun planning and helping out with the program. For the school, the Library Club sponsored a Book Title Contest and a Poster Contest, also a book exhibit was planned for the faculty and the students. SPORTS CLUB FOR GIRLS 7 E. Beckett B. BoggS C.

LEARN IE-TALKIE Only The Brave Dare. Yes, only those students who didn't shy at what would be done in a club that gave hints of public speaking, dry bones to many, joined. The members of the Learnie-Talkie Club are learning ot voice their opinions to anyone who will listen. As it is election year, we can campaign on the nearest soap-box for our favorite candi- dates. All the arts that go toward making us better speakers are employed-pantomimes, charades, choral readings, monologues, disc jockeying, and other voice strengtheners. We have had several public performances. The tape recorder has given us more confidence in ourselves as speakers. XVe promise next to conquer the Mike Joyce Tucker as the first leader has been succeeded by Anna Mae Jones.
