STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the law-making body of the school. It consists of representatives from each homeroom with an Advisory Board composed of representatives of each grade, chosen from the Council as a whole. Although the Student Council lias always played an important part in the school, during the term of February-June, 1927, the importance of the group has increased. The work of the following committees has been much more effective: The Civics, Attendance, Library, Social, Lunchroom, Dance, and “Council Echo.” Some of the outstanding work done by these committees was in connection with the Courtesy Campaign, the Attendance Campaign, and Get Together Party.

SERVICE CLUB Big sisters of the school—that has always typified the Girls’ Service Club of which Miss Lillian Niebes, assistant principal, is the sponsor. Girls in the club act as guards in the lunch, locker, and wash rooms, besides serving as ushers at school entertainments and Commencement exercises. At the beginning of each new term a “Big Sister” party is given for all girls new to the school to make them feel welcome in a strange place and to help them become acquainted.
