The symbol of the Tri-Hi-Y Club is a triangle. One side represents the physical development of the members, the other side stands for the mental and spiritual development of the girl. The purpose expressed by the Club ' s ritual is to create, maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. Through the varied program of the club the girls become interested in different activities. Although the spiritual development is stressed, social functions are given by the organization. All of this makes the members well-rounded individuals with many interests. This club was organized to create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, the school, and the community high standards of Christian character. The new members are selected by the club and the sponsor with due consideration of their religious and scholastic background. Page Fifty-Seven 1
