POETRY CLUB The Poetry club is a loose organization that counts among its members all the people in school who are interested in poetry, either in studying it from a purely appreciative standpoint, or in trying their own hands at versifying. It does not pretend to turn out finished poets, but studies various meters, rhyme schemes, and stanza forms. It meets weekly, and a portion of each session is spent in writing and criticiz- ing. At the end of the school year, a little volume of the best verse produced by the club will be compiled. MEMBERS Mabel Shields Harry Stone Bessie Barnes Daniel Hauser June Armstrong Adelaide Plathe Faculty Advisor ............ Marian McLaren BOYS' COOKING CLUB 'lhe boys of this club have learned how to set a table correctly and what the correct uses of food stuffs are in the body, a few simple foundation dishes, and the rules of table etiquette. One of the main things for them to learn was the principles underlying food cookery, and to interpret recipes. It was highly essential for them to under- stand the right combinations of food to make a well balanced meal. The boys take turns acting as hosts, guest, and waiter during' Serving lessons. The boys wear standard uniforms and furnish their own equipment. They are in this class because they want to be, but receive no credit. There is always a long waiting list for this club, but there is seldom a vacancy. It is a helpful course for Boy Scouts. OFFICERS President .,...... , ...............

English and Math ' Contest Winners During the spring of each year, two contests are conducted in the school. The first is the English, which -is in charge of Miss Dickson. Preliminaries are required in this contest, and those making one or no mistakes are allowed to participate in the finals. The winner has his name engraved on the Kate F. Simpson plaque, which hangs in the west hall. The winner this year was Frances Clark, a 9A. Coming second was June Armstrong, also of the 9A class. , Anyone, who wishes, may enter the mathematics contest. It is in charge of N. F. Leach and consists only of 8A and 9B problems. The victor in this con- test has his name engraved on the John A. Shaw plaque. Marie Sharpless, a 9B student, came out first this year. The three students who tied for second place were Virginia Boyd, June Arm- strong, and Marguerite Mehlert. Though the runners-up do not receive an award, it is an honor to get second place. More students enter the English than the math contest, but in both cases close competition is present. The stu- dent body seems to take a great inter- est in both of the contests. C515
