BLANCHE BURGESS The Junior II division is composed of the girls that are in training for the second and third grades. This is the first year that a special division was necessary for these girls, but its success cannot be doubted. The assembly programs given by the J11 class have been both interesting and educational. They grew largely out of the class studies of the division. The first one was a mixed program comprising music, recitations, and a sketch. The Indian program was a combination of Indian stories, Indian music, and Indian songs. A rather novel program was that of the picture show made and given by the girls of this class. Because of the fact that this division is preparing to teach in the lower grades, much attention is given to handwork. Under the supervision of Miss Langdon, we have completed projects of the First Thanksgiving? a Christmas Party for Poor Childrenf' HEarly Kansas City, a Lower Grade Picture Show, and a HGrocery Store. In all these projects many kinds of sub- ject matter have been correlated with the handwork. Twice during the year the division has held open-house for parents and friends. In everything that the division has done, in all that they have stood for, every Jll has done her part, to make her class a creditable division of the school body. -Bessie McCrudden. .- - - - . - ., - - 4- . 4a5..-,,5,, 1,,,,

' ................................. HELEN FETTERS Ship Ahoy! All hands to! When the J1 Bark set sail upon her voyage at Teachers College in the fall of 1923, her crew elected Irene Brown, captain; Frieda Hanssen, first mate; Iris Howard, logkeeper; Martha Hardy, treasurer; Helen Fetters, orderly. With officers so worthy and a crew so faithful, the trip began. Its first port was Open House for friends, faculty, and students to exhibit the work done by the jI girls in the construction of a project consisting of two houses, made of blockssand completely furnished. Her next j ourney was to Farm Port where her members found success and happiness, and at which time some of her crew mutinied and set sail under a different name, and upon a different sear- the sea of matrimony. The rest of the crew with the captain sailed on into the port of Christmas Time. Here they stopped and had a real Christmas fete. A Christmas tree was decorated, presents were made, and Yuletide Spirit reigned. When everything has been arranged to the satisfaction of the crew and its offlcers, the guests were invited. The guests were little children with big shining eyes and radiant faces. Santa Claus visited each little child and left with him two presents, a bag of nuts, and candy. Hearts were made happy, eyes were made bright, and success resulted. t The JI Bark next set sail for the port of Community Town. Here was built a life-size playhouse in which the crew might stop to rest awhile. Later a hatstore, La Petite Shoppe, was erected, in which hats of all styles and shapes were on sale. On many occasions the JI Bark joined other ships which she met in passing, to help man a big program. At about this time a fierce storm assailed the junior Fleet in the form of the Literary Contest. In the stormy gale, three of the J1 crew won honors in Pantomime, Story Telling, and Declamation. These were to meet the Senior Fleet. And as the Bark is about to be anchored in the Bay of Teachers College and the end of the journey draws near, a feeling of satisfaction comes to the officers and members of the crew.

PEARL OTTO SergeanI-Al-Arms .................................................................. MARY MCFARLAND The Junior 111 division has two things of which it is very proud. They are co-operation and loyalty. Very early these became the largest planks in the JIII platforml'. Whether n class or in some outside activity the girls always work together. It is known that men are scarce around T. C., but everyone must admit that the JIII girls made handsome gentlemen in the HConstitutional Convention, and also made alive again such men as George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and Benjamin Franklin. Does anyone need an orchestra? Where can you get one? jl I Is of course. Whether you want symphonies or jazz, they can furnish it. The first thing the Junior class did this year was to claim the JIII president, Elizabeth Rich ards, for its own president. But then, someone is always taking away the JIII presidents. Ruth Covert, who was a faithful and capable president was soon claimed by Cupid- and by the way, with all their great accomplishments and abilities the jIIIs still are able to dazzle the eyes of Teachers College. Now, you wonder how a class can do so many things. Well, it isn't any wonder at all for we have Miss Greene for adviser and Julia Salmon for president. And yet with all these division triumphs, the JIIIs are very loyal to the junior Class and defy you to find one who loves her school better than it loves its dear Alma Mater-Teachers College -Pearl Otto.
