Student Volunteer The Evangelism of the lVorld in this Generation has been the watchword that has kept the purpose of the Student Volunteer lllovement steadfast. The Student Volunteers are college students and faculty members n ho have declared it their purpose to become foreign missionaries, if God permit. 'llhe work in this institution was begun in ISSS, about a year after the National Student Volunteer Xlovement was organized. Since that time the group has done much to maintain the religious lite of the college and to promote interest in missionary work. Besides weekly meetings this year, there has been one vesper service, and about a half a dozen deputation trips. A number of the members attended the state conference at Grand Rapids. Pl-hree members of the local group held state olliees during the past year: Helen Chapman, secretary: NVini- fred -lohnson, council woman: and lfred Des Autels, chairman of posters and deputa- tion work. l-'Run DliSAL'1'lZl,S . .ll.'l.l.'X M.

The International Relations Club This organization has grown to be one of the most prominent of the several campus groups which prove the student body of Kalamazoo College to be deeply interested in various phases of modern life. It was founded in l92l and is a member of a national association of International Relations Clubs created under the auspices of the Institute of International Ifducation in New York City, which has rep1'esent- ative clubs in most of the colleges and universities of the United States. The purpose of the clubs is to study and discuss informally the problems which face the world today, especially in the field of international politics, with a yiew to a better understanding of them. In accordance with its custom, the Kalamazoo club held a Hget-together meeting early in the present college year, at which the new members, chosen by a faculty com- mittee on the basis of scholarship, leadership and interest in current events, were intro- duced to the older members and an organization perfected, while plans for the club's work of the year were outlined. The new members chosen for this year were Harold lleadle, Lillian IVeller. lllabel IlIiller, Dorothy C. Scott, Robert Black, lIary Linden- thal, l,edlie De Bow, Theodore Fandrich, Shirley Payne, Helen Going, Ben Goldman, Frederick Pope, Roger Thompson, Robert Pfeil, lfdna Biss, llarguerite Hall, lVilliam Scott, lllerrill Peterson, and Harold lVise. Successive meetings of the club have been devoted to programs on such topics as The l.eague flIeetiug of ICI2-l , The League Protocol for International Peace . The Dawes Reparations Plan , The lfnglish and German Elections and The Interallied Debts . :Xt each meeting a summary of current events was given and discussed in open forum. 2' Wi' ll f s 422-15 , , . , Pain Nirirly-Ji.x'
