Sclancacllub OFFICERS: Ethel Ashworth President Joan Blair Vice President Roger Munn Secretary-Treasurer Maxwell Wheat Librarian This year a Science Club was or- ganized in Geneva High School. The club has a membership of about twenty, with Mr. Robert Moore acting as advisor. At the first meeting, a constitution was drawn up, and officers were elected. Meetings are held twice each month and consist of a short business meeting followed by a scientific program. The purposes of the club are: 1. To increase our knowledge of science. Z. To learn to perfect our skills in science. 3. To give service in our community and nation. 4. To understand the importance of science in our lives. 5. To help carry out the program of Science Clubs of America. Our government needs skilled workers and these Science clubs are helping to produce such workers, for they are developing a scientific attitude, especially with regard to recent achieve- ments in their special field of interest. The scientists of today that are doing such a grand war-time job, are the products of former high school clubs. The scientists of the post-war era will be those who now belong to these clubs. Science is today winning the war for us, and in the future it will make our life much more comfortable. The right to dis- cover the truth ourselves is one of the things for which we are fighting. ETHEL ASHWORTH, President.
