SEWING CLUB To implant in the minds of the girls the spirit of co-operation, self-direction, self- appraisal, and self-control; to create a desire for enjoyable and fruitful use of leisure time; to establish habits of accuracy, neatness, and thrift; and to develop skill and accuracy in handwork and machine work are the important aims of the Sewing Club. During the first semester the girls made quilted pillows, finger towels, tams, and other small articles. The second term they endeavored to complete accessories for home, self, and school. Crocheted tams, felt purses, quilted silk purses, and underwear sets were included 1n the articles for self, while book covers, shoe bags, finger towels, and luncheon sets con- stituted the home needs. An important part of their work is the planning, mak- ing, distributing and collecting of costumes for plays, oper- ettas, and the May Festival. If costumes are needed, or any repairing or fitting is to be done, the Sewing Club is ready. In this way a valuable service is rendered to the whole school. Miss Gunderson is the club adviser.

HANDICRAFT CLUB Making accessories for the home has been the chief aim of Miss Schonebaumk Handicraft Club. Among the articles made were: guest towels, kitchen towels, hot dish holders, lunch cloths, dresser and buffet scarfs, sofa and boudoir pillows, fancy tea aprons, and vegetable bags for the ice box. The club has attempted to learn new embroidery stitch- es, and to make the wrong side of the material as neat as the right side. The members furnish their own material, choose their own line of work, and receive assistance from their instructor. They meet four days a week in room 223, and once a week at the home of some member. This activity has shown the girls; that it is possible to have pretty rooms of their own through their own hand- work, and it has aroused a desire for dainty, pretty things. The girls in the handicraft club like their school better because they are doing handiwork they like. Mm Schonebaum Page Forty-tbree

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB The planning and serving of luncheons, together with many other interesting subjects has occupied the larger portion of the time in the Home Economics Club, which is under the supervision of Miss Keenan. The girls prepare the food, set the tables, and do other things essential for the success of the luncheon. Some time is also devoted to the study of etiquette. Duties of hostess and guest, invitations, letters, and introductions are also included in their study of etiquette. The members of the club gave special topics relating to the home. The subject of gardens has proved especially at- tractlve. They have found a great deal of enjoyment in planning the decorations, games, favors, and refreshments for parties of the month, such as St. Valentine,s Day, George Wash- ingtonls birthday, and St. Patrick,s Day. New books and magazines which relate to the subjects of their study will be purchased. The club has grown both in numbers and in knowledge kt of the culinary art. Mm Keenan Page ForIy-five
