There are fifty-iive mem- bers in the organization and its meeting days are Tuesday and Thursday. The qualiiications for membership are, willingness to learn and willingness to work. A peculiar feature of this club is that no boy Who is a good swimmer may join. Every boy works for himself trying to pass a series of tests. When he has completed one he starts upon the next. The result is that When they are all com- pleted he has become a proiicient swimmer being able to swim fifty yards tthe Scout testi, the twenty yard back stroke and do the fundamental dives. He may advance much farther, however, depending upon his own efforts and ability. Mr. Fischer is the club adviser. Sixty

Why bother to learn about the world, its flora and fauna? To some of the boys and girls these seem like foolish ques- tions. Isnit the great out-of-doors a part of our home and life? Does not our pulse beat faster and our soul almost burst with some pent up emotion when the first warm days of spring come after many long below zero days? Whether we look or whether we listen, We hear life murmur or see it glistenfi It is our life, a part of each one of us. How much bigger and fuller our lives are as we learn more of our surroundings! Two people took a three-hundred and fifty mile auto trip one hot summer's day. One reached the end of his journey warm, tired, and cross. As the auto speeded along, the other saw thirty-eight different kinds of birds and as many varieties of fiowers, including many strange new ones. Which had the happier day? .And so I say: Blessed is the one, who in early life, learns to know Nature and ' who feels her healing, restful, inspiring touch. He who is a faithful student of her will learn much of Godf, and say with the merry brown thrush sitting up in the tree: Oh, the world's running over with joy! The adviser is Miss Hoy. Fifty-Nine

Mr. Fischer TUMBLIN G CL UB TO develop healthy, strong and skillful bodies, through stunts, is the aim of the Tumbling Club. Courage, perseverance, and good judgment are the require- ments for success. The Club meets in the gymnasium two days a week and is divided into two groups, the novice and the advance. In order to come into the advanced group, the novice must be able to do the following stunts, with a fair degree of proficiency: cart wheel, head stand, head spring, hand spring, snap up and fly spring. Having become an advanced tumbler, the boy may now win his ttLh by success- fully performing the following stunts, which have now become quite difficult: round off twister, hold a hand stand, front Hip and back hand spring. The adviser is Mr. Fischer. Sixty-One
