Girls . . ,lust Girls! By Esther Monson Girls' Ifllgllt' Prr'.viJr'11f All together now! In my sweet little Alice bluegowniv. Two hundred girlish voices were raised in attempted harmony at the Girls' League banquet. After the group singing, the girls sat down at the colorfully decorated tables and were served a delicious Thanksgiv- ing dinner-minus the traditional turkey. A program was held consisting of several musical selections, readings, and an amusing play, Creatures of Impulse , which caused a great degree of merriment. Alice Mae Nordstrom was general chairman of the banquet. Weren't forty-six little mothers proud of the beautifully dressed dolls that were pre- sented to them as Christmas gifts from the Girls' League? This dressing of dolls has be- come an annual affair. Money for the pur- chasing of the dolls was raised by means of candy sales which were held several times a Standing: L. Cavalier, l. tlslilf HAZEL MAHOOD l'ricndsl1ip c.l1LllI'I11Llll week. Marie McAllister acted as chief of the candy sellers and Helen Hamre headed the committee of doll dresser uppersn. Hazel Mahood, chairman of the Friendship Commit- tee, sent flowers or plants to members who were ill to cheer them on to recovery. An- other Mothers' Tea was held this spring. Teas of this kind are a means of better acquainting the mothers and school girls. A large delegation of girls attended the High School Girls, Range Conference. The girls formed many new friendships and their interest in Girls' League activities was greatly stimulated. Upon entering high school all girls are automatically made League members. This year's officers included: Esther Monson, pres- identg Marie Sullivan, secretary, and Cather- ine Cavalier, treasurer. Miss MacAllister acted as adviser.

UWB S6I'V6l,, 0 By Laurence Thouin We should all know how well this motto of the Junior Red Cross was carried out this year by our Hibbing organization. The Rally Day program was unusual for the inspiring ad- dress of Miss Lulu Askridge, Junior Red Cross representative from the Midwestern Branch Headquarters at St. Louis. Our Junior Red Cross had the distinction of making the Christmas greeting card to be sent to the National Headquarters of fifty foreign countries in which there are Junior Red Cross organizations. The art classes de- signed entertaining menu cards which were sent to the crew of the U. S. S. California for their Christmas dinner, and made Christmas cards to send to fifty-nine schools with which the Hibbing Juniors carry on correspondence. The practice of remembering at Christmas time Hibbing people in sanatoriums and or- phanages with small gifts and well wishes was continued as in past years. Other outside act- ivities undertaken by our orangization were the sending of a portfolio to the exhibition of the Eastern Area of the United States, and an exhibit of beautiful portfolios and dolls in Mountain Iron. Hibbing Juniors filled forty Christmas bas- kets for unfortunate families. The council appropriated twenty-five dollars to purchase milk for under-nourished school children in Hibbing, and further aided local relief by vot- ing fifty dollars for caps, mittens, and other clothing for the needy. Funds were increased by the ticket sale to the charming operetta, Snow White,,, presented by the oragnization. Much of the success of the 1934-1935 council was due to the leadership of John DiMarchi, president and Junior representative at the American Red Cross Conference held April 8-11 in Washington.

It was unusually busy that day, much to the annoyance of Dick Stake, who was chief door-tender in Room Cnc as well as assistant editor. Reporters ambled in and out, offering all sorts of good but unwanted advice, bothering every one in general. Snarches of conversation wafted about the room -- Yeah, the band paraded for - Heard the latest dope?-Now get this straight-For the fifteenth time, leave a space between each line-I covered the meet Saturday but-Don't bother me with this.', Suddently a furious typist whirled around, Will you pul-ease be quiet? A silence enveloped those standing near. After a sarcastic suggestion from the busy editor, the sheepish reporters shuffled slowly out of the room. Peace reigned once more. When Miss White stepped in a few minutes later, she found the typist clicking merrily away at her typewriter, just finishing the last page. In one corner, john Center and Ken- neth Miller discussed the almost finished cover. Two hours later, the room was deserted except for the care-worn editor who sat scribbling away, while the room darkened. Thus, the High School News was edited. The paper gives news, gossip, and all school events, it tries to find the students' interests. We found that this year the sport events, Dora Leels Dusting, and the li- brary news received the most attention. The members of the staff were: editor, Patricia McKus- ick, assistants, Richard Stake, Joe Aubing artist, John Center, business manager, Theodore Bloom, circulation, Robert Swanson, sponsor, Miss White. luditor-in-clnef Mclxusick .md her two assist- ants, Stake and Aubin. supposedly busy Il work. 32
