FLAMBEAU MANITOWOC HIGH SCHOOL DEBATING SOCIETY By PAUL URBANEK The Manitowoe High School Debating Society was organized many years ago, and is one of the oldest in the school. The purpose of this society is to promote debating, to get the pupils of the school inter- ested in debating work, and to instruct them in parliamentary law. To do this there are meetings every two weeks at which debates are held, in which certain members of the society participate. All current topics and topics that would be of interest to the members are debated upon. At certain meetings there is a public discussion, that is, all the members of the society take part in the debate. The society has a membership of about forty pupils. Membership is open to any pupil of good stand- ing in the High School. Officers of the society are elected every semester. We are proud of our society and have reason to be, because all of the members of the High School Debating Team are members of the society, and former members who have gone away to school have gained places of merit on debating teams.

THE FULAMBEAU THE GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB By DOROTHY STANGEL “The Girls’ Glee Club will reorganize to-night at 3:45. All who wish to join meet in the Main Assembly. Miss Koss.’’ About eighty- six girls were present, but unfortunately, the Glee Club can have no more than about forty members. The members from the year before, naturally, got first chance to join the club, and thus some had to be excluded. The purpose of this club, as you may rightly guess from the word glee which fills everybody with inexpressible joy, and also adequately presents the foundation or rock of this society, is to create a cheerful- ness and a voice training such as will have good effect on all people. The beauty of harmony is expressed in its finest forms. And the best part of the club, no, not the best, but one that is very prominent, is that it is called upon to participate in the programs that take place during the year. Since then, the club has proved successful in all that it has done. It has taken part in all activities of the school. Besides this, it has helped to make other entertainments a success. Hildegarde Johnson, the president, whose very keen sense of humor is an asset alone, presides at the meetings. Augusta, the Sec- retary and Treasurer, whose goggles make her look wise, reads the minutes and roll-call. Margaret Stangel , the trustworthy librarian, must not be forgotten for her faithfulness. But most of all to Miss Koss, who is the director, we owe our prominence and success. Miss Jones will complete the work that Miss Koss has begun.
