FROEBEL BOOSTER CLUB The Froebel Booster Club now has an enrollment of eighty members. Meetings are held every Tuesday after school and a monthly schedule is followed. One meeting of the month is devoted to outstanding women. Each girl represents some woman who is now living and who is promi- Other meetings are devoted to discussion topics. The girls enjoy expressing their opinions on current topics. They gain poise and charm of manner by these discussions. Another meeting often brings speakers who are of interest to all high school girls. Our plans this year included speakers who are in some way connected with the war effort or who told of war experiences. A distinct feature of our club meetings is the presentation of an inspiring quotation as an answer to roll call. This helps emphasize the F. B. C.. a culture club devoted to true character development. To the best of their ability, F. B. C. girls strongly stress the finer things of life. Club activities are numerous. There is the “Little Sister Party” attended by every Booster member and her “little sister,” a freshman. A few other activities are the annual dance, Christ¬ mas party, orange week, annual play, May Ball, and our Ceremonial. Among our school activities each year we sponsor Courtesy Week. The purpose of the week is to remind Froebel students of the little deeds of kindness that are so thoughtlessly overlooked. As a climax to Courtesy Week, a Teacher ' s Tea is given. All of our faculty attend this affair escorted by a Booster member. The biggest event of the year was the Ceremonial, a farewell gathering of the F. B. C. girls and a welcoming of new members. But the Ceremonial by no means is the end for the graduating members, because there is a Graduate Booster Club which was organized to continue Booster Club work and friendships. The motto of our organization is “Build for character; not for fame.” The sponsor and founder of the club is Miss Blanche Liggett. F. B. C. OFFICERS S eated: A. Denesuk, secretary; M.
