Alcott The Alcott girls of the last year have been bubbling over with pep and have shown their spirit by their many activities. A week-end party at Grosse Isle afforded great amusement and rumors have spread in all corners of the school as to the good times the girls had. The Alcotters, feeling that by this time they were well acquainted, de- cided to make their mothers known to the club, and to solve this problem. they gave a musical tea, held at -lean McKaig's home. Money, a word that speaks for itself, played an important part in the minds of the girls. All possible ways and means were talked over and linally the club hit upon the plan of selling pictures of the football team. This was indeed a good plan and the hole in the treasury was filled up somewhat. The idea of aid to others is never forgotten among this active group of girls. They spent an afternoon of their Christmas holidays singing carols and decorating the Arnold Homeg also remembering a children's hospital with a basket of toys. To uphold the standard of scholarship was another question facing them. This they did by giving a medal to the best all-round student that graduated in the '24 class. Not too busily occupied in her own work, Aclott lifted her head and heard the call of the opera, answering by sending her best to aid in its progress by ushering. WVith an eye ever ready for business, Alcott appointed herself chief candy seller to those in need of something sweet to eat on opera nights. Alcott owes much of her success these past terms to her faculty advisers, Miss Hill, Miss Neil, and Miss Wy'man. MILDRED Hmm 99

Amici The Amici girls came back to school in September. tanned and sun- burned but with renewed vigor and enthusiasm. their chief aims have been to obtain higher scholarship, to promote girls' athletics. and to arouse an interest in the Parent Teachers' Association meetings. They have at no time throughout the year wandered away from these aims, but have carried each one out most successfully. Good spirit and pep are true character- istics of every Amici girl. In order to secure a better attendance at the Parent Teachers' meetings they thought of the novel idea of presenting a cup to the graderoom having the best attendance for three meetings, The Amici girls sponsored athletics by selling tickets and taking in tickets at girls' basketball games and swim- ming meets, Their interests chi not run entirely toward work, however. for they have a great desire for pleasure. A l'lallowe'en party was given in October: and it is a custom of the club to have a farewell party at the close of each term for those members of the club who are graduating. The last of these parties was held at the home of Dorothy Graham. Initiations are, of course, part of the terin's routine. These will lone' be remembered bv those Girls 'li sultered the trials and tribulations.

All the ideas, however, centered around one big aim. That was to encourage students to continue Latin for four years. ln carrying out that idea the club has been responsible for the delightful lecture given by Professor D'Ooge of the University of Michigan. He had many objects of interest to show the audience and gave the students inter- esting verbal pictures of Italy. Posters have been made to create a larger interest in Latin. A bulletin board now holds a permanent place in room 127, on which there are posted articles and illustrations which demonstrate the use of Latin in the business world of today. Interesting programs have been given and mythical stories told at the meetings, all of which deal with Latin and the Roman ideas and customs. Through these meetings a close relationship between the members and fac- ulty advisers has been formed. The officers who have guided this ambitious club during the fall term were: First consul, Chandler Collingeg second consul, Clemence Yan De Sande: scriba, ,lean Ernst: pontifex maximus, Margaret lYilson. The offi- cers,who led the club during the spring term were: First consul, Suzanne Marting: second consul, 'lean llegwoodg scribe and pontifcx maximus, -lean Ernst. The teachers who have stood by and aided the club in all its work were Miss Cooper and Miss Sheehan, The members feel that all their eiforts have not been unfruitful and know that they have gained much knowledge by the organization.
