I - L. I X One Monday afternoon after school a visitor looked into the And. Then he en- tered. He surveyed the group of boys and girls who were gathering. Then a look of enlightenment ap- peared on his face. This must be the Spanish club, he observed. I think I shall listen and find out what these boys and girls do at their club meetings. A short time ago I heard an old member of the club tell a prospective member that the purpose of the club was to promote an' interest in speaking the Spanish lan- guage and to gain some knowledge of the history, literature, and life of Spain and Spanish-speaking coun- tries. There is a member wear- ing the club pin. I cannot see it very well, but I have seen the club pins before. They are gold and shaped like a shield. On them is the seal of Spain. The president is calling the meeting to El Circulo Espanol OFFICERS First Semester President FRANCES MCENTEE Vice-President VERA PAHALY Secretary RUTH FLANDERS Treasurer ANGELINE BACILEK Second Semester President PEARL LIEBOVICII Vice-President MARGARET LUTES Secretary l'A'l'RICIA SNIVELY Treasurer VERNICE RICHARDS r A d v i s or MISS CORDELIA GUMMERSHEIMER , ff A if fig!

Now I shall see what they did at their last meet- ing and what they are go- ing to do this time. I do not seem to be able to understand the minutes the secretary is reading. They must be in Spanish. I wonder if the club members can un- derstand them. Of course. these girls and boys are all at least second semester Spanish studentsg but I doubt that they understand every word. Anyway, I shall be able to tell what the club does at the meeting. A girl is going to the piano. I wonder what she will play-Ch, the whole club is going to sing a song in Spanish. Now a girl is reviewing a book on travel in several interesting countries of South Ameri'a. That must have been an interesting book. I think I shall read it myself. The meeting is going to ad- journ now. - ' one hundred fifty-nine if Qf

Since the club arose i rom a desire for social activities and a need for active organ- ization in the Latin depart- ment, the membership is re- stricted to students taking Latin. The membership at present totals Fifty. Meetings are held regu- larly every two weeks, on which occasions the club is marvelously entertained.
