x' If Ia I 'I' ,I s TI-IE CICERONIAN SOCIETY One of the most interesting societies in our school is the Ciceronian Society. This is :I public-speaking club formed in connection with our Junior English Work. The main object of this club is to create a warm spirit and :I fine feeling of fellowship, and to make us independent and capable of carrying on meetings when the necessity arises. At each meeting an interesting debate or discussion on popular subjects is scheduled. In this way we gain poise and self-reliance besides an acquaintance with problems of the day. Our society is yet in its infancy but it promises a bright future. FIRST TER M I'rr-I-izlrnt .... ...............

I' 1 if 1 11 Hb SUNIL l OI The Sunetoi was organized September 21, 1925, in connection with the Senior English class, for the purpose of developing a spirit of leadership, enabling us to under- take matters of more importance with that ease and grace that is so becoming to the young woman of today. At each meeting a debate, or some important political or social question of the day is discussed. Election of oflicers is held every twelve weeks, thereby allowing each member an opportunity to gain the necessary experience that she will need in later years.

The selections sung by the Glee Club were Ijfflllllillg, by Shelley, assigned contest number, and Il Relorno def Gregge, by Nluller. The manuscript of the latter was received through the courtesy of blonsignor Rella, director of the Sistine Choir, who graciously granted the required permission to use it. The Veritas is glad to announce just before it goes to press, that first honors were won by the Little Flower Glee Club. The St. Thomas String Ensemble gave such an artistic rendering of lVIozart's illinuef in E Flat and Karl liomzalcys Fable that they were accorded second place among the contestants, and are to enjoy the privilege of entering the final contest at Lansing, lway twenty-hrst.
