THE FLAMBEAU DECORATIVE ART CLUB By LUELLA OHM ’21 The Decorative Art Club was organized at the beginning of the school year, and the following officers were elected: President - - - - - - Grace Kadow Vice-President - - - -° - Mary Davies Secretary - - - - - Evelyn Golden Treasurer - - - - - - Edward Wiltgen Censor - - - - - - - Luella Ohm. The Art Club meets twice a month, and although it is a new club, it has thus far proved very successful. The boys of the manual training department, who helped complete the art room, were entertained by the Art Club. A Christmas play was given by several of the club members, under direction of Miss Markham. Juncheon was served, and surprise packages were distributed, and all enjoyed a good time. A St. Patrick’s Day party was also given to secure new members, and it proved successful. The purpose of the club is to try to interest more people in art work, and induce them to notice things in every-day life. Every-day life becomes more interesting if you analyze and see the artistic part of it. Sketching is also one of the problems taken up at meetings, and proves very entertaining and interesting, as well as educational. We all sincerely hope that in years to come, the Decorative Art Club will stand out as one of the best clubs in the school, and that more people will take interest in the subject and develop it to a greater extent.

THE FULAMBEAU LITERARY SOCIETY By MARIE MADSON ‘Say, what sort of a society is that Literary Society of yours? Do you ever do anything at your meetings? Can you girls conduct a meet- ing?’’ For the benefit of all those who are asking such questions, we sub- mit these lines. Our. meetings have been held regularly, and something instructive and amusing has been done at each meeting. Miss Campbell is our faculty adviser. Though our club is not large, yet it is very active. All the members are very eager to do their share. Speaking of the club as a whole, we might say it is quality, not quantity. Of course both those terms may apply to some of us. Perhaps one reason why we have managed so well is because Dorothy Stangel, Marie Damez and Goldie Golden gave us such a good start when they gave us a pantomine of The Courtship of Miles Stand- ish. I think the rest of us must have been trying to keep up that record. We had a debate which was good and was really enjoyed. Then we have had other meetings at which stories were read or told to us. Some of the girls sang and others danced for us. When Eva Thompson or Karolyn Geigel or Esther Thompson get up to tell a story we know we are going to hear something good! How Grace and Mollie can dance! —and Marion sing! Then there are Bessie Nielsen and Marie Guttmann who are always ready for some fun. The mock severity of the censor is often greatly taxed by them. And here we nearly forgot to mention Sylvia, Evelyn, Leona and Calla! They are so quiet! Louise and Hildegarde are good members. They are always present and always do their allotted tasks very well. So do Olene and Vivian. These are two of our good debaters also. But Hertha and Gladys, why don’t you come a little oftener? We miss you! So now, what’s the matter with the Literary Society?
