' Volunteer Vagahonds To HELP Without heing asked, the Courtesy Consideration Cluh, organized through Mrs. Nell Liefeste's eagerness to improve com- mon courtesy in the school, is the first of its kind at Ponce and is composed of n1en1- hers from Home Room 307. Having no meetings or dues, this cluh makes it a point to volunteer to help a teach- er or fellow student as much as possihle, thus furthering respect between the faculty and the students. From opening doors and erasing hlack- boards to running errands and grading pap- ers, a CCC member, feeling a sense of pride, goes ahout the completion of his unrecog- nized service. School life would he a little more eo- operative if everyone undertook the fulfill- ment of the aims of this organization. Protective Pros ls THERE ANYONE of us who hasn't at some time or other hcen apprehended hy one of the Ponce Hall Guards? How many are the times we've tried to go down the up stair- case and race to lunch! stationed at all thc vulnerable positions around the school, the guards perform their unnamed duties. Among these they hlock all means of escape from the cafeteria if we have hottlcs or papers, they attach the111- selves to the hack of our neck if we attempt to pass on thc wrong side of them. Guards are selected hy their sponsor, Mrs. Mary Coovcr, and approved hy the faculty. After meeting the requirements, and having one study hall a day, they are issued a red and hlack IlI'lll hand. lVhen you are a junior and have served two years, you receive a Ponce Hall Guard pin. ---MILDRED GARCIA 59

Book Mongers ARE YoU WVILLING to give unselfishly your time and efforts to the care of those five thousand books of learning now in our lib- rary? Then join the Library Club sponsored by Miss Margaret Clark. Yours is the duty to shelve, dust, and check books in and out. You may also be called upon to file cards and prepare new books for circulation. Membership is limited to those with a better than average scholastic standing and one available study hall a day. Your rewardfwhat better compensation than that of service to your school, tl1e op- portunity to become better acquainted with the best known books, and service medals and pins received according to the length of time as a member? To end the year of hard work these future librarians held a party at their sponsor's. 58 Always Prepared HOW MANY of us are willing to serve when- ever needed without any recognition what- soever? Although not actually organized into a club, the members of the office staffs per- form the majority of the alittle thingsl' necessary for school's efficiency. How can we try to tell of the numerous jobs that just turn up during the day? Per- haps you yourself have directly received the services of some one who has simply brought you a note or told you of a call from Mom. But it isnit as easy as that. These girls do all sorts of filing, prepare the ab- sentee lists, and run errands. Included in the picture above are the girls who type the stencils for the bulletin and tests as well as the book room and clinic staffs. -Miwmsn GARCIA
