The appearance of our building may be marred by careless marking of the walls, by throwing paper on the floors and by scattering debris on the lawns. The Club has undertaken to prevent such carelessness, when possible, and to clean up, when necessary. In the spring the club will care for the East Court. This will necessitate some new planting, some replanting, and cleaning up. Our members are planning to make home gardens this spring. They hope to introduce a competitive spirit which will Say it with flowers, as well as with carrots, onions, and pride. Above all, the members hope to make gardening con- tagious in their respective neighborhoods and thus increase the beauty of our com- munity. With this objective in view, the club will join the city iiClean Up Week, Campaign in April. Mrs. Bolinger is the adviser. Thirty-Nine

From the English point of view we have stressed clean-cut sentences, clear or- ganization, and an enlarged vocabulary. From the public speaking point of View, we have talked about the necessity of poise, of a pleasing, well-modulated voice, of enunciation and articulation, of good eye contact with the audience, and of pleasing animation generally. Our work has included story-telling, debating, and speeches on health, public safety, and current topics. Several of the smaller debates were conducted in the club on such subjects as: Japanese Exclusion; Capital Punishment; and Self- government in the Philippines. We held one large debate with the Latin club on the proposition: Resolved that Latin be eliminated from the Junior and Senior High Schools. This term we intend to do some work along a dramatic line. Miss Eich is faculty adviser. Thirty-Eight

The aims of the club are to make better citizens and business men, to teach cooperation by means of teamwork and to beautify the school yard. The members of the club have already created a beautiful garden out of the once uninteresting looking west court. All the money which the boys have spent on their project has been raised by candy sales which they have given themselves. Business and professional men have spoken to the boys on various subjects in their own school room coming in contact with them and giving them glimpses into the business and professional world. These talks have showu the boys that good business and professional men make good citizens. This club has served the school by helping to make the surroundings more pleasing to the eye. It has been of service to the boys in that it has taught them to work together in groups and it has fastened a desire in the boys to beautify their surroundings. Mrs. Brett Moran is their adviser and pal? Forty
