JUNIOR DRAMATIC CLUB Organized in the early part of the year, the Junior Dramatic Club had a very successful season. To enable more of the members to take an active part in the affairs of the club, it was divided into two sections, the classical, and commercial. Catherine Connolly was chosen as director of the classical branch. while Nora Brouillette directed the commercials. Mae Mulholland and Norma Johnson were treasurers of the classicals and commercials repec- tively. The members displayed talent not only in dramatics, but also in speak- ing, singing and dancing. The lively music of their orchestra added much pep to the Juniors' programs. The Thanksgiving Day program, one of the snappiest of the year was presented by the dramatic club, and consisted of two short plays, recita- tions, selections by the orchestra, and dances. The plays presented were. The Business Women's Club, and Entertaining Royalty. These con- tained many comical situations, which sent the audience into peels of laughter, and testified to the great success of the club. C. Connolly, President, M.
