It consists of various members of the different German classes, all taking German being eligible. The members feel exceedingly proud in having chosen the name of the famous German poet for their club, Q .Xt each meeting the business of the club is brought up and followed by a prograni in which only the best German literature is used. Monthly pro- grams are held in the classrooms, the business being' carried on in German. Roll call is answered with German quotations and proverbs, and there is always a varied prograin in which every member participates. At these. poems, biographies, talks. playlets, anecdotes, and songs are given. Criticisms are also given in German. There are two open programs a year, at Christ- mas and in the spring, where both pleasure and literary activities are coni- bined. .Xt a later date, they are planning to have picture slides. The Schiller members presented a large donation tu the fund for the starving German children. Their aims have been to enlarge the German vocabulary of the members, to perfect conversation, to further sociability, and to learn German songs, literature. and customs.

Los Leones Espanolesv As the second year of the Los Leones Espanoles Club is drawing to a close, the members are satisfied that they have had a much more successful year than the firstpone.

Clj Lawrence Hahn, f2j Edna Ottog student council representatives, Qlj Arnold Grandt. QZJ Edith Mayer. Cf the various activities of the club, perhaps the most noteworthy was the help given to the art department in producing the Puppet Show in November. On January ll, the members held a banquet at the Detroit Spanish Club, where the atmosphere is typically Spanish. Before the ban- quet members of the Los Leones entertained with Spanish songs and dances. The banquet was reported in the G'Don Quijotef' a paper edited by the Detroit Spanish Club, complimenting them on their work and also that of their capable faculty advisers, Miss Hart and Miss Vyn. Los Leones has at various times had the pleasure of hearing well-edu- cated Spaniards, The members are interested in Spanish songs and dances and also in short plays given at the meetings, many of which are written by the members. A rather unusual and interesting proceeding has been taking place. 4'Los Castillasf' the Spanish club at Eastern High School, has been sending delegates to Los Leones' meetings and Northwesterns club has been send- ing representatives to Eastern. to exchange ideas. These two organizations joined in a party recently at the home of Elizabeth Paull. ' hlADIiI.lNI5 Pllrr..-xx. 103
