Nineteen forty- seven has proved to be an experimental and successful year. Student Government has, for the first time, been instilled in the minds of the coming generation. The students have chosen their own classmates to be captains. They are being taught the meaning of respon- sibility. Each class arranges assemblies bi- monthly to teach the children to think about current events.

The schedules of the fifth, sixth, and seventh grades are well planned, giving just the right amount of time to work and play. If, per- chance, you should look through the keyhole of twenty-one twenty-nine any day between the hours of nine and eleven-hfteen, you would see girls studying English, Mathematics, Social Studies, French, and even going through vari- ous contortions in posture class. A sigh of relief is heard at eleven-fifteen, followed by a tumultuous dash to milk and crackers. This is a very pleasurable hfteen minutes of the day for everyone. The period comes sadly to an end at eleven-thirty, and then it's back to work. A hot lunch waits for the girls at one-thirty, and there are a few minutes to play before general afternoon study hall, or art. The Middle School's clay would not be complete without physical education and Girl Scouts. There are many expert riders, hockey and basketball players, flexible tumblers and modern dancers. The Girl Scouts deserve special attention this year. Among their many activities, they made dolls for St. Anne's Orphanage, and Christmas stockings for the John Dickson Home. In order to provoke international friendship, the scouts have sent many food boxes overseas. The best achievement was their drive to collect clothes, candy, and toys for the Tennessee mountain children. There is no doubt that the Middle School is an essential part of Holton-Arms. We shall expect great things from it in the future! ix . 'xc 531 ff Xa?-P-,fx l. XXX. eg -fr. 'fi A il if vi. waxes 9 J Q fide. f J Q - Lu.. LX... l51l
