DNV.: Do you belong to the tea ?'l PIQP: Do I belong to the tea? YVhy, what in thunder do you mean? D.W.: l'You know. I mean to that thing that doesnlt do anything but give teas--guess they call it the Christian Association. It's no more Christian than I am. Look at the pepy President that it has-who ever heard before of anything with a Christian attached to it having any kind of a person but a long-drawn-out-drink-of-water for President. I tell you that it isn't done. PEP! You certainly are all Wring, D.W., this isn't a Salvation Army organization, but it's one ofthe most lively in the school. By the way, Fresh- man, what would you have done if it wasn't for the Christian Association? You would probably have been lost somewhere in the Wilds of Boston instead of being well entertained by some notable upper-classman. It cer- tainly does make me mad to hear anybody like you talk against the Chris- tian Association when all the time it was it that did all of the Red Cross work that was done at school, gave the well known Freshman Tea, and have already given one free tea for us all. in 132

f'fll'f ETEEN 04275 . my 96415 4,1399 INTERC.OLLEC1IATE COMMUNITY SERVICE ASSOCIATION Pfwificur, LUIS BAYLIQ1' Vim-lJra.vidw11', liL1sfx1s1a'1'11 A. Hawes Scvrclm'y-Trcn.v1n-ur, Nic1.1,n MARSI1.-xL1. HHN we look back upon the first year of a club or an associa- tion, especially one which needs continual backing and support, we are likely to sigh and ask each other if we aren't glad that the first year is ove1 ' and could we ever go thru it again P But there is a first year which will go on record not as a year full of toil and disappoint- ment to the organizers and workers, but one crowded with encouragement, enthusiasm, and interest. This is the first year of the Sargent Chapter of the I. C. S. A. Sargent School was the pioneer of the schools of physical education to enter this field of work. livery one of us, Seniors, Juniors, and Freshmen, was more than anxious to prove that our training is especially valuable in this work. The first great success came with the summer of 1918, when Sargent sent out a greater number of volunteer workers than any other chapter of any school or college. Nlany and valuable were the experiences of these willing workers. Another point was scored in our favor in the membership campaign of October thirty-first. The method of getting members was in the form of a class competition, and the results were most satisfactory indeed, as practi- cally the whole school joined. During the winter, many of us, when we have not been in quarantine, have been doing social service work in and near Boston and Cambridge. In this work, invaluable experience and practical knowledge is obtained. We hope that another year will not bring an epidemic, so that our work will not be so limited. ' The first annual I. C. S. A. dance was given at the school on March first. That too, was a big success, as we hope the dances will be in years to come. The year 1918-19 has had a wonderful record, which the following years will find hard to break. We trust that they Will surpass it, how- ever, and that the future of the Sargent Chapter of the I. C. S. A. will be full of enthusiasm and true spirit of community service. EL1sA1aia'1'1e1 A. Hfxwias, IQZO, Secretary. 131

I never have faith in anything that is free now-a-days. I thought that every- body would get stung on that and have to pay a dime or two, but honestly they did really get everything free, sandwiches, tea, cakes, and everything! PEP: D.VV., keep this quiet and I'11 tell you something that I over- heard the other day. At that same tea I heard them say that they had plans-many plans! VVhat do you suppose they could be ?

Vvhen I think of all this, what wouldn't I give to be able to take back those awful things that I said about the Christian Association. PHP. Never mind that! Have a sandwich? It wasn't so long ago, was it, that we wished that we could have some cozy room like this to sit and talk and have fun in. DIV.: It really doesn't seem like the same place-and to think that I who used to be such a nut should be asked to be one of the representa- tives of our new branch of the Y.W. at Silver Bayf' PEP: Gee! that's great! but did you hear that I am to be the President of our new lVlodern War Drama Club that our old Christian Association organized for us?'! DNV.: I am so thrilled today just to think of the way that the whole school stood back of the Christian Association so that it could develop into a college branch of the Y.VV.C.A. There is no getting around it, we have one dandy bunch of girls. CURTAIN 133
