SMITH DENNEN CVLVER MEINBERG JORDAN E. LEA If HART IQURGER LITERARY. Feeling the need of some activity along the line of literary endeavor in high school, two literary societies were formed at the beginning of the second term. Ethel Hart, President with Olive Culver, John Meinberg and Emily Burger composed the committee of the Calliopean Society, While Otis Smith, President with Erma Leak, Helen Jordan and Rowland Dennen made up the committee of the Polymnian Society. Both gave several very interesting programs throughout the second term. Every other Friday afternoon was devoted to these literary programs at which times some remarkable talent was displayed by various members of the student body and of the faculty as well.

The question assigned to this district was Resolved that the State of Kansas should adopt a Minimum Wage for Women Engaged in Industrial Occupations . Ethel Hart, Arthur Leak and Herbert Jordan, coached by Prof. Fairchild, upheld the Affirmative side of the question at home while the Negative team, composed of Grace Griffiths, Byron Collins and Otis Smith, under the direction of Prof. Ross, debated at Sabetha. Although our teams did exceptionally well, both debates resulted in a two to one decision for the oppo- nents. Defeat in the first attempt, however, has not discouraged Seneca High School ufd with experienced debators, the year 1915 will undoubtedly bring more success along' this particular line N ,...4...-......c..-t..,........,.n...A
