The Bridge With Books Club The Bridge With Books Club, comprising thirty-five senior high school girls, was organized in November, 1929, with Miss King as advisor. lvleetings are held in the library on alternate Thursdays. ,The club members have for their organization motive the enjoyable association with books. VVe feel this is sufficiently broad to in- terest all bock lovers and readers. It is natural that our programs provide varied contacts with books. This is evident from a brief glimpse of some of our meetings. One was devoted to an ap- preciation of modern poetry, another to reviews of books interestfng to read. A comparison of contemporary newspapers proved to be enlightening. A presentation of biographical sketches of contemporary American girls was an incentive to those inspired to do greater things. A consideration of the library periodicals served to widen and direct our current reading interests. Our Christmas program, held before the holidays, was one of great spirit and merrymakhing. One of the members read an appealing Christmas story from the Atlantic Monthly. Carol singing and refreshments concluded the festive occasion. As this goes to press numerous excursions and programs of special interest have not yet been announced, nor have the prospective members been recorded. Those serving the club in an official capacity are lvlargaret Ennis, presidentg Laura Hewitt, vice-presidentg Marion Miller, treasurerg lVIildred Yach, secretary. The programs are planned by a voluntary committee. MILDRED YACH '3l. 44
