SCIENCE CLUI3 At the beginning of the year, a group of ambitious students called a general meeting of all pupils interested in the establishment of a Science Club. At this meeting a constitution was drawn up, and a motto was adopted. Provisions for the election of officers were explained. The following meeting saw the election of the officers. Michael J. Donohue was chosen presidentg Stan Wi. Bawol, vice presidentg Vivian Collins, secretaryg and Charles Gaffney, treasurer. The plans for a year's progress were drawn up. During the course of the year we have been honored by several speakers. Two assembly pro- grams were presented with great success. A dance was held to raise funds for the treasury. At the close of the season, the Science Club went on expeditions into the country to study nature. To close the season with success the club went to Howe's Cavern where they had a picnic. During the year the club revived a new interest in science in the school and did much to promote its development. Next year the Science Club will continue to prosper and be a light and benefit as well as an honor to our advancing school.

FUTUIQE FAIQMEIQS The Sauquoit Yalley Future Farmers have had a very active program during the year. Ten members attended Dairy Day at the N. Y. State Lxperimental Station at Geneva in August. ln the dairy cattle judging contest Carlton Henkle won fourth individual and the team also won fourth. Later in the month five members took a two day trip to visit farms in and around Delhi. The judging team won the cup at the Oneida County Holstein picnic for judging Holsteins. The entire chapter attended the X. Y. State Fair the first day. They took part in the various judging contests besides viewing the many sights. They held their second annual vocational fair the first week of school. There were more and much better exhibits than at the first fair. Carlton Henkle and Harry Rider were in charge of the general arrangements. Harry Rider won Grand Champion with the same heifer that he won it the pre- ceding year. Carlton Henkle's heifer was a close second. Each won a purebred heifer calf. Later in the same week the group exhibited at the Paris Hill Fair where they won the cup for the most points won. Three other schools competed but Sauquoit won more points than all the rest to- gether. This spring we purchased a l2Ofi egg electric Buckeye incubator for our use. Wie filled the machine three times and hatched over two thousand chicks. Wie have the machine over one-half paid for. The members of the chapter have started 3.695 baby chicks this spring. ln addition they have 1.000 hens. They own 39 head of cattle and are raising ll acres of potatoes besides numerous other projects. First row: Hamlin Zamhon. Robert Light. Stanley Porter. James Toner. llwing Way.
