26 THE BUTTE lvl. H. S. Senior-Sophomore Literary Society Presirlelzt - C1IARL1:s UMMEN Secretary-Treasurer - Lonsxrz MCEI.FRESH Personnel Katie 131'illIlSt9kld Robert Knox Irene Rich Wilbur Barnjngham Pearl Miller Merna Rowe John Delo Everett Miller Alice Sharp Vernon De Groot Lorene McElfresh Helen Scudder Ruth Eichenberger Charles Ommen Aired Tiffany Marshall Eichenberger Donald Parson Melba Todd Grace Hartzell Grace Piersol Bernice Williams The literary societies were organized early in December. The Senior and Sophomore society gave the first entertainment, in which great interest was manifested. Not many entertainments have been given but we trust next year the organization will continue with more enthusiasm than this closing term. Not only programs were given but the S. S. L. Society has entertained the faculty and schoolmates to various kinds of parties. The purpose of the society is to create interest in debates, dramatic work and miscellane- ous entertainments, which is essential to every student in school. -P.M.

We are competing in friendly rivalry with the S. S. L. S. Each society gives a program every al- ternating two weeks. We have given several programs on Friday afternoons. Together with the S. S. I.. S. we gave a program at the Baptist church, on the occasion of an oyster supper. We have given one party-a masquerade. While we have not progressed far this year, it being our first, we feel that the literary is a good thing to have in a school. To the Freshman-Juniors of next year we say carry on the literary. It will prove a source of instruction and entertainment. -Aldine Sharp '25

'F Student Body Association H141 Student Body Association of the High School includes every stu- dent enrolled who has paid his fee of thirty-five cents for each semest- er. This entitles him to all the privileges of' the organization. The general election of the Student Body officers is held in Sep- tember each yea1'. The Student Body is organized as political divisions or parties, each has its own platform and candidates. This campaign election is carried on similar to the national election. The three parties that entered the campaign were the Bold-She-Voter, Anti-Labor and the Aristocratic. The Anti-Labor party was victorious in the election of 1923. The officers elected this year were: Pearl Miller, President: Raymond May, Vice l'resident: Alred Tiffany, Secretary and Treasurer. This organization was established four years ago and practically every student in the school enrolled. The Student Body fees are used to further the various school activities and this together with the money received from plays and entertainments have made possible the purchase of our piano and some laboratory equipment. This year however, the greater part of this fund has been used for the publica- tion of the year book, the first one in our history. The Student Body Association has been an advantage in other ways. Probably the most important has been the creation of an enthusiastic school spirit-a thing hard to define which is iudispensible in the life of a school. It has also enabled every student to take an active part in the government. of the school. By encouraging the American principal of self government, it gives the student invaluable training and helps prepare every student for more etfcient citizenship. -Pearl Miller.
