The History Club was organized six years ago to create an interest in history, Each year the organization has grown and this year it boasts one of its largest memberships. The meetings have been Well attended because of the many interesting and novel programs arranged. Mr. Horn entertained the History Club at its first meeting by speaking on i'History in the Making. His talk proved to be most interesting and enjoyable. Mr. Plank, who has visited and worked in India, presented before the club a most unusual and fascinating talk on his experiences. He told how the people in India lived, He discussed their modes of travel and explained how they built their villages and prospered. He contrasted their mode of living with ours. There were also talks on Mal-Asia and New Orleans. Several interesting mu- sical programs were also given. Each year as has been the custom, the club holds its annual picnic. This pice nic is held at some historical spot. Again this year the club had its picnic which was well attended and a most enjoyable affair. The sponsor and willing teachers have added greatly to the Club's success and through their willing cooperation the Club has this year added to its annals a most successful year, The History Club hopes to continue in the future to meet its purpose: Create an interest in history.

The meetings are held once each month at the homes of the members Every- one in the club participates in the numerous dialogues, sketches, and articles some time during the year. The president and other officers conduct the meetings entirely in French and all endeavor to pronounce correctly the few words they have to say. The programmes consist of interesting facts taken from French life and much cooperation is given by all to make them a success. Songs are sung in French 'Au Clair de la Lune and Frere Iacgues' are the most popular, This year the members of one of the smaller French classes gave a novel Christmas play, An interesting dialogue was given in which an American girl who is very inex- perienced in speaking French receives instructions on how to reach her hotel These were very amusing and offered variety to the programmes. Students who attend Le Cercle Francais enjoy it because of its informality and the opportunity to speak French outside the more formal class room The club gives them a chance to learn more about the customs in an entertaining fashion. Nearly everyone who is talzing or who has taken French attends the meetings V. 'rn fx-:lf
