All this has made me happy in my work with the Safety Board, which has been a source of satisfaction and pleasure to me. The safety slogan is one we can all remember to great advantage in our future work and lives- .elI'zt'a3',v stop. Ionic, and listen. Senior Officers of Safet3 Board

' N-s s s N :twig gg- -,,. - uv- . - By ALVIN SACKS K Jur pupils of john Burroughs have many ac- tivities in the form of clubs and organizations throughout the school. lVe have our glee clubs. orchestras, and academic clubs. but we also have organizations to ht the hobbies and ambitions of the students: such as the stamp club, the civics club, the radio club and the camera club. So you see our students have quite a chance to develop any possibilities they might have acquired. This makes the pupil's day at school less bor- ing than it might be, and also stimulates spirit and a will to work with the faculty. There are many advantages, seen and unseen, in having organizations in a large school like John Hur- roughs. OUR SECTION By MARGARET MCHAFFIE Our school day would not be complete with- out our clubs and other school activities, nor would our Burr be complete without the section devoted to these organizations. Club life fosters a fine spirit of friendship among its members, cooperation, and a feeling of loyalty to our school. This year our organizations have made greater advancements and attained higher honors and recognition than ever before and it is hoped that every year will find them a step higher. The editors of this section hope that in future years, when you are looking over your old Burrs, the organizations department will recall to your memory many of the happy hours spent in John liurroughs.
