The aims of the group are both social and professional. At the beginning of each new semester the League holds a reception for the new freshmen girls. Une of the most important functions of the Woiiiei1's League is the Free Childrens Clinic that it conducts twice each year. This clinic was started nine years ago and was immediately a success. Not only is the clinic of great beneiit to the people of Kirksville and the surrounding country but it also provides valuable experience for the women of the school. All women in the school take part, the juniors and seniors doing the actual examining while those in the two lower classes attend to registration and case records. The Mother Still Ward in the K. C. 0. S. hospital is another prof ject ofthe League. This Ward in connection with the Childrens Clinic makes the Woi1xen's League a thing of real value to the school and to the community. 1--.-...-Ic'i1,,.........-........... l175l

British Empire Club TED DUNI-IAM, President LORNA WILLIAMS, VicefPresident SIDNEY BALL, Canadian Correspondent EDWIN WILSON, Secretary and Treasurer JIM HOLDEN, English Correspondent HE BRITISH EMPIRE CLUB was reorganized as such during the fall term of 1930. It is an outgrowth of the Canadian Club, which in its time was a reorganization of the British Association. The British Association was active in the osteopathic school as early as 1912. Since its beginning the present organization has grown steadily until it is now not only the largest group of its kind on the campus but also the most active. The Club holds at least one meeting each month at which time a program is presented consisting of addresses on Osteopathy or subjects of general interest. Many local people as well as members of the faculty of the college serve as speakers for these programs. The purpose of the Club is to provide a social and professional organization for all students of British nationality. Corresponding secretaries keep in touch with Osteopathic conditions and problems in the many parts of the British Empire, providing information not only for the members but for other students who may wish to practice in a foreign country.
