The following items testify to a varied and ser- viceable program: The first get-together was a picnic at Faxon Park, at which hot dogs were cooked over an outdoor fireplace. The succeeding event was the Coalpost Gallop, a successful informal dance. At Christmas was the traditional play with a neu theme: Christmas cards came alive presenting humor ous, religious, and fashionable scenes. The biggest turnout of any school heretofore using the Boston Y was that of the splash party. Next came the foreverhspecial semi-formal. Sweethearts Serenade. at which the FEMME- PATALES and their shining knights danced in a dreamy atmosphere of hearts and Cupids. This year's Red Cross Show was in the form of a minstrel show which revealed unusual talent. In May the highlight of the Mothers' Tea was a delightful spring fashion show. President.

'if fm gil 5 'US In spite of women's growing advance in the world of business, home- making as a career still interests many girls. Here at North ample proof of this is the active participation of about forty-ive girls in the Euture Homemakers of America. Eileen Dearing. a junior, is the state president of the organization in Massachusetts. The motto of the club, Towards New Horizons. expresses the desire to increase the importance and value of home life. In carrying out this purpose, the girls have a lot of fun. Every month a special program is planned for one of the meetings. This year the activities included a combination Halloween party and initiation, a speaker on skin care and cosmetics, one on good grooming, a Christmas party, a theater trip, a teachers' tea, and a picnic. Other plans consisted of a demonstra- tion by the Gas Company, a square dance, and an entertainment for the mothers of all the members. Besides fun and self-improvement. an important part of the program is service to others. This spirit was demonstrated by collecting Christmas gifts for European children. by remembering hospitalized veterans, and by helping out at teas and other social functions. Selling to the teachers cakes made by the members in their spare time was a popular means of raising money. In Eebruary. the members had a chance to act as hostesses to the representatives from other chapters participating in the state conference of Euture I-Iomemakers of Fxmerica, held a North. President.
