rm om fzuusson mcuxm' HANDLY im mation HURTON mrrcmsox BELLES Like every phase of Lamar life, the Belles Club has excelled past years in the advancement of its twofold purpose. lts first objective was to render any practical or charitable service that contributed to the betterment of school and community life. To the library, the girls presented a year's subscription to that fascinating magazine L'lllustration. Ht Christmas, there was great excitement over the collection of oranges, apples, and gay packages with which to fill baskets for needy families. The peak of pleasure was reached when the members delivered the baskets to the exuberant children who en- thusiastically welcomed a substitute Santa Claus. lts second objective was to promote wholesome social activities for the students of Lamar. Though its members must have a B average and an in conduct, there were always more than enough girls eligible for mem- bership. Parties for bigger and better fun and frolic were easily planned and executed. The Christmas dinner dance, high spot of the year, With lohn Sulli- Van's orchestra, and the Houston Club for a background, was not eclipsed by the Spring Formal held in the ballroom of the River Caks Country Club.
