E. Club organizes at the beginning of school with the members immediately starting work at their respective jobs. The Distributive Education Club is an integral part of the Distributive Education Program and is composed of all students studying Distributive Education. Because of their schedules, D. E. students are deprived of the oppor- tunity of joining some high school clubs; hence, this organization gives them a sense of belonging , a desire prevalent among all young Americans. Though the activities of the club, stu- dents are taught leadership; they also learn to regard the field of distribution as a profession.
