The purpose of F.H.A. is to prepare the members for their future duties of cook- ing, cleaning, and understanding the care of an American home. Along with this the girls have many projects which they must accomplish. Bake and candy sales are worked in between the times when they aren’t working on their Thanksgiving bas- ket, Homecoming float, and planning for their district meeting. F.H.A. also is a big promoter of Civil Service Work, giv- ing a helping hand in many community programs. A funfilled time is had by all during their field trip to the University of Miami when all the girls visit the campus’ huge home economics building. We can see from their many activities the members of F.H.A. will be greatly exper- ienced and will make better homemakers for our future generations.

Impressive Initiation Begins Thrilling Year for New Members THE ROOM WAS SILENT; Four candles were lit and four words were repeated. Leadership, Schol- arship, Service. Character. Seventy juniors and sen- iors watched and listened breathlessly. Parents looked on with pride as the initiation ceremony of the National Honor Society was carried out. Honor Society projects included the tutoring of fellow students. This service is extremely valuable to the student body. Members measure seniors for caps and gowns. Each year, they award a scholar- ship. National Honor Society is the greatest scholastic achievement available to high school students. Mem- bership is much sought after. The standards of Honor Society are that you must maintain a 3.2 average for at least two semesters before you are considered for membership. We are happy to say our Honor Society con- tains the highest membership in Lauderdale High’s history. There are some 140 members. This means one out of every thirteen students or 8% of our student body belong to this outstanding society. We surely hope our school may continue expand- ing its membership and be outstanding in top scholastic achievements. 109
