The purpose of this club is to present in an entertaining manner, experiments, talks and movies of the more in- teresting every-day applications of science. At the first meeting of the club we elected the following officers: Loyd Hunt, Presidentg Ross Tipps, Vice-Presidentg Maxine Casteel, Sec- retaryg and Bill Neal, Treasurer. We meet bi-monthly, Following each regular business meeting a program is put on by two members of the club. Scientia Fratres is affiliated with the Junior Academy of Science of Illinois. We pay dues of fifteen cents per semester to cover our mem- bership fees in this organization. The annual meeting of the Junior Academy is held in Springfield every spring. Mr. Storey gives us a list of projects to select from and these projects are entered in a state contest at the Springfield meeting. We have taken two very interesting field trips, one to the ice plant and the other to the Gregory Serum Plant. Another is being planned this spring to the Pottery plant at White Hall. These trips are arranged so we can take them about the time we are studying that subject. The members of the Scientia Fratres have enjoyed the trips and the programs and hope that in the future others will enjoy similar experi- ences as much as we have enjoyed these. Betty Lee McKown.

The first meeting of the G.A.A. for the school year of '40 and '41 was held in the basement classroom on September 27, 1940. The meeting was called to order by Miss Maras, the director. This meeting was held for the purpose of electing the officers for the coming year. They were elected as follows: President, Emilie Mueller, Vice-President, Helen Kennedy, Secretary, Marian Rees, and Treasurer, Jean Lane. We also discussed plans for Play Day which was to be held at Roodhouse. We decided that Play Day would be held on the school grounds on Saturday, October 2, 1940. Everyone was given a duty to perform. There were five schools invited, namely: Alsey, White Hall, Rockbridge, Carroll- ton, and Hardin. Each school was allowed to bring six girls. We served lunch to the visitors in back of the school building. The visitors left around 2 p. m. The G.A.A., during the year sponsors monthly parties, which are well attended. At the party, which was held in January we had dancing for entertainment. It was the first time we have ever danced at our parties. We have dues of 25c a semester, which go for parties and necessities of the organization. The G.A.A., this year, was composed of forty-six girls, all taking an active part. G.A.A. has always been a successful organization in the High School and we, the members for the year 1940-41, hope that the members of the following years will keep it so. Kathryne Langley.

Since its beginning in 1935 it has been known as the T Club because the meeting nights are Tuesday and Thursday, and the initial of our in- structor, Mrs. Thelma Wilkinson is T , Superior rating goes to Mrs. Wilkinson for her splendid training. In the spring of 1940 a number of students were very successful in the contests. Those entering the Sub-District Speech Contest at Win- chester Were Naydene Welch, Bette Marshall, Doris Marie Young, Maxine Tiffany, Betty Black and Marilyn Snead. Three of these, including Betty Black, Bette Marshall and Maxine Tiffany were fortunate in reaching the State Contest in Champaign. Our first thought of business this fall was to elect our leaders. Those chosen were Maxine Tiffany, President, Marilyn Snead, Vice-Presidentg Jo Ann Weinand, Secretaryg and Hortense Young, Treasurer. A three-act play, entitled June Mad , was presented in the gym- nasium causing much excitement because of the outstanding talent in play work. After several years planning, we succeeded this year in having an initiation banquet for the members of the T Club. Students are now preparing for the Spring Contests. Those successful in the preliminaries here will go to the Sub-District meet at Carrollton, April 5. Good luck to the future members.
