During the basketball season the club prepared and served a supper, at which the squad of Rosary High School, Hol- yoke, and the home team were entertained. , Although the Homec Club, as has been the way with the other clubs cf C. H. S., has not had many opportuni- ties to hold meetings, We feel that on the whole it has been a success. The girls have got a lot of good and a lot of fun out of it. STUDENT COUNCIL Of course the most important organi- zation in our democratic school is the Student Council. Sixteen members, twelve from the High School and four from the Junior High, are elected by the various classes to represent them in the Council. Mr. Clark is faculty ad- visor. This Council makes decisions confronting the pupils and work for the grncral welfare of the school. This yearis officers were elected as follows: President . ,. . . Maxine Nesbit Vice-President . . Dora Taylor Secretary-Treasurer .. Aylmer Crafts Some of the various things that the Council has brought under way are the appointing of Donna Welts as Head Li- brarian, electing Loraine Lewis as Fi- nancial Secretary of the school, carry- ing on a March of Dimes through which S15 was raised and sent to the President, appointing committees for selling war stamps, and appointing committees to supervise assemblies and socials. The Student Council expects to travel to Augusta this spring to the State Student Council Convention, and there they will get good ideas for the betterment of the school. M. White ,47.

EXCHANGES No two year books are just alike, We naturally think ours is best, This section renders comparison IVith our '43 year book guests. At his desk, Mr. Ideal Yearbook was interviewing a representative from each of several schools. It was his job to select excerpts from each of these year- books which he would like to have in his ideal school book and he was also to deal out criticism which he thought would be to their advantage. The first to be interviewed was 1'The North Starf from Houlton, Maine. How do you do, Mr. Yearbook?v said N, ul have with me a copy of our yearbook which I think you will agree is very good. '1Lct me see it, pleasef, Mr. Yearbook picked up the book which had a very neat cover of black and white. KAI1, here's something that draws my atten- tion. This Service Honor Roll with a picture of Old Glory as the subject of Dedication is wonderfulf, 'cHow about our literary section? KN. S. asked. I was just coming to that. Looks pretty good. Let me read somef' After a few minutes Mr. Yearbook nodded his head. A bit of all right, lid say. Yes, I'll take that, too. Oooh, oh! I was just noticing your Senior section. For a school as big as yours I should think you'd honor your Seniors with a small individ- ual portrait of each instead of group pictures. Oh, yes, how about adding a miscellaneous division? Your book will be perfect when these changes are made. Thank youf Sf, replied. :Til talk it over with our board. With that he left and an applicant from Newport, Maine, by the name of Live Wirev was shown into the office. Hello, 'L. Wfv Mr. Yearbook cor- dially greeted. 'KI have already read your book and I want to start in by tell- ing you that your cover is also one to be complimented. I see that you have a very cleverly arranged snapshot sec- tion. This added very much to your book. Those humor and miscellaneous divisions were swell, too. I canit com- pliment you enough on the attractive ads you had. Those ads should make your advertisers very thankful they put confidence in youf, 'Thank you, Mr. Yearbook, but do you also have some criticism?', Oh, yes, just leave it to me to find something that just didnit suit my fancy I didnit like the arrangement of your ads on one side and printed material on the other side of a page. No doubt this must have suited your editor or they wouldn't have been there. But I would much rather see the ads in the back of the book by themselves. How about a few more poems and editorials to round out your literary section? I hope to see these few changes in your next editionf, The aLive Wire left, bearing in mind these suggestions, and The Windonianv was next shown into the ofHce. He had come all the way from VVindham, Maine. Ah, you're just the book I wanted to seef, Mr. Yearbook said with alacrity. 'The Rostrum, of Guilford High School wanted me to thank you for many sug- gestions they took from your swell book. You will notice these in their I944 edi- tion. They feel as though they were quite indebted to you. I liked your Ser- vice Roll very much, on which you placed the names of all in the service who ever attended W. H. S., whether they were alumni or not. This shows impartiality. Although your book desires nothing in structure and content and is as nearly perfect as any book I have
