Q THE GARNETEER . . . rgg i i 1 , llFllRllEBlIlXll4E3lIflll Glllllslllllllb Parlez-vous francais? If so, why not join the French Club? The French Club members, under the supervision of Miss Cecile A. Garrigues, have been holding their meetings every Tuesday afternoon. The meetings were presided over by Grace Lenthe, President. Other officers were: Mary Starr, Vice-Presi- dentg Edna Roemer, Secretary, and Betty Money, Treasurer. Programs were planned by different members each week, They played many interesting games in which at least a slight knowledge of geographical and historical facts of France was necessary. Before adjourning each meeting, the girls sang French songs. In the spring the club had a song fest which every- one enjoyed very rnuch. Meetings in the latter part of the year were devoted to working on Le Babillard, or The Chatterbox, the newspaper which the French Club pub- lished. The editor was Grace Lenthe. The members of the club suggested articles to be put in the paper, and each one selected some subject on which to write. Each member got information about his topic, and during meetings they discussed the articles. The cover was designed by Edna Roemer. The paper contained articles about France, French schools, sports, fashions, short stories, interesting things written by French correspondents, the life of Victor Hugo, a poem, and a crossword puzzle. just before the close of school the French Club went on a picnic. This was probably the most enjoyable meeting of the year. During the past year the French Club has done very interesting and in- structive work. - lf65l
