On a Thursday evening, January 14, 1915, the club was first organized by a group of twenty-six boys and girls. Since that time, Inkpah has contrived to live up to its name. Limiting its membership to thirty-five students chosen from juniors and seniors who are leaders in literature, scholarship, public speaking, drama and music, it has successfully maintained its high literary standard. The ambition of the club has always been to have well-constructed programs which carry out a central theme. Original selections form the main features of the programs. Combined with these are musical numbers, recitations, talks, plays, debates, parliamentary drill, impersonations of famous people, and Inkpah Extra, the club newspaper. The Good English cup which Inkpah and the Meridian Literary Society annually present to the student who has best merited its award in literary effort was given this year to Ruby Eggleston. ’age Twenty-One

We find therein the babbling brooks, The tiny grains of sand, The majestic snow-capped mountains, And the mighty sea and land. The dancing, prancing elves anil gnomes, The pigmies of our dreams. We hear of happenings old and new From trees and rushing streams. We Hy to the rendezvous of color And bring it back in verse— In poems, comic, gay, and daring, Dejected, soft, perverse.
