There are several representatives elected from both the senior and junior members of the Honor Society and a chief justice is selected from this group. To make this a student government, a representative, not a member of the Honor Society, is elected from each home room. They attend all court meetings and may report anyone who violates a school regulation. A list of offenses is made out at the beginning of each year by the society, and it is this list which is used as a basis for reporting any mem- ber of the student body. All cases are brought before the court, tried, and if found guilty, they are suitably punished. The faculty may report cases, as may any member of the society or any representative from the various home rooms, Students may also turn in cases but two witnesses are required. 37 Chief Justice-Bill Englehart

The organization was formed October, 1928, at Kansas City. The aim of this club is the development of agricultural leadership, co-operation, and citizenship. Outstanding success which was evidenced by prizes won in local, county, and state contests has been achieved by some of the boys. Last year Harold Saylor was awarded Hrst prize in the County Dairy Project and second prize in the State Dairy Project. Homer Gnagey received third prize in the State Sow and Litter Contest. During the summer vacation, tive boys with Mr. Darrah, their sponsor, attended the State F. F. A. Conference at Penn State College. One of the group, George Shockey, talented vocalist, participated in the program of the mass meeting and won recogni- tion as a fine entertainer. Money to carry on club activities is earned by participation in agricultural projects, such as hog raising and Christmas tree growing and selling.
