THE YEAR BOOK The English Club wo issues of the .S'il1zer Quill have been put out this year under the auspices of the English Club and during the fall a tea Was given for the purpose of helping to finance the magazine and of interest- ing the Student Body in the literary ideals of the club. Mrs. Stebbins read us some lovely English ballads which were much enjoyed. The object of the club, to encourage and recognize literary talent and inter- est in the school, has been well fulfilled. Both of the magazines con- tained admirable material, and many new writers were discovered. Prerident . Sdffdfdfjl . Miss GEORGE Mus. LOMEARD Mns. FURLONG MRS.

THE YEAR BOOK The French Club HE cosmopolitan life of the school has been taken care of this year by the efforts of the French Club. French conversation has been carried on at several tables, including that ofthe club, and at vari- ous other activities. The crowning achievement of the year, however, was the fall play, Les Precieuses Ricliculesf by Moliere. The club Was fortunate enough to have for a coach M. Andre Ferrier of La Gaite Fran- caise, and a new grasp on the French language was gained at rehearsals. The play was a great success, the whole cast entering into the spirit of the amusing plot of exaggerations and confusions. Prerident . . YVONNE W1NsLow Secretag' . .

THE YEAR BOOK The Dramatic Club Hrs year the Dramatic Club, under Harriet Sutton, has flourished exceedingly. For the f1rst time in the history of the club the annual Shakespearean play was The Merchant of Venice, and it was very well done, in spite of the absence of Miss Locke and the irregular- ity of rehearsals due to the vvanderings of Mr. Holme. The club is much indebted to Mrs. Howell who coached the play in the intervals, and who added much in spirit and grace to the success ofthe play.
