GIRLS' UNDERGRADUATE ASSOCIATION Two years ago, the Girls' L'ndergraduate Association was formed for the purpose of inculcating good feeling and school spirit among the students. That such an organiza- tion was needed in the school was shown by its immediate success. This year the membership has increased, and the work has been carried on with great enthusiasm. The officers are as follows: President, Marion Raff, '20: Vice- l'resident, Margaret lleales, 'ZOQ Secretary, Mary Steegar, 'ZOQ Treasurer, Henrietta List, '2O. Ample opportunities are given for social events as well as serious discussions of school activities. Regular meet- ings are held once a month. Every ten weeks a joint meet- ing with the Girls' Alumnae is provided. There are also meetings with the Boys' I.'Esprit de I.'Ecole. The Asso- ciation is rapidly realizing its aims and promises to be a valuable influence in the school in the future. as L'ESPRIT DE L'ECOLE The lflisprit de Iflicole is an organization which has as its members the boys who have in mind one thing and that is the promotion and progress of the High School in educational and athletic lines. The main object of the organization is to instil in the minds of its members the spirit of co-operation and good-will. The word l.'Esprit itself is the French word for spirit. ln order to live up to our motto we hold meetings at which current school questions are brought up and dis- cussed. Our social gatherings are enjoyed immensely. There are thirty-five members in the L'Esprit. Twelve of these members were admitted during this school year. The officers are: President, Michael Hilas: Vice-Presi- dent,. NVilliam Bridgewater: Secretary, Russell tiokey: Treasurer, John Dolan.

ment of Victor llergers or linnna Goldmans. They are the enemies of liberty, justice, and equality, as we see them. as are set forth in our Declaration of Independence, our Con- stitution, our Emancipation Proclamation. These men and women would have us set up a shaky, skeleton government, of hollow ideals and unbased and disloyal principles. They have the wrong conception of Amerieanism, theirs is a False Americanisn1, an uAll'l6I'lCZllllSl11', that must, and will be, stamped out. America stands out today as the supreme nation, the superior force. America is the hope of the peoples of all the earth. America is foremost, to her comes the duty to lead, to guide in the paths of Democracy the faltering foot- steps of other nations. Aiiierica needs you, are you help- l l'l'lll'll ing? Are you answering that call, that is echoed from coast to coast? Are you imbued with the invisible, in- vincible spirit, True Americanism? America, last hope of man and truth, l Thy name must thru all the coming ages be i The badge unspeakable of shame and ruth, 5 Or glorious pledge that man thru truth is free. This is thy destiny: the choice is thine To lead all nations and outshine them all :- But if thou failest: deeper shame is thine, And none shall spare to mock thee in thy fall.

At assemblies and other school functions it has rendered selections which liave been greeted with much applause. The appreciation of the High School was shown in the donation of over 34300, raised by popular subscription to defray all expenses of music and instruments. Much praise is due Mr. Haga- man and those who have worked so faithfully for the enjoy- ment of the school and community.
