These officers were in- stalled during a ceremony held during the Christmas tea for our mothers on December 18, 1950. We also fixed a basket for a needy family in Maryville. The F.H.A. members sold homemade candy at noon hours,and they also sold at a basketball game. The group attended the sub-district conference, and have made plans for the State and National Conference. We were affiliated with the State and National Cahpters in the fall of 1950.

CLUB Last year the Seventh and Eighth Grades started the Teen Age Book Club, and we enjoyed it very much. The idea of this club is to get students to read more books. First the students read the kind of book they want, then they pick out an interesting part in the book and make a skit. This is supposed to interest the students in readmg these books. Mrs. Arthur, our sponsor has done a great job, in helping us promote T. A. B. Club.
