XV. C. A. workers. It is club for the junior and senior girls and it strives to bring its members closer to each other and closer to the school. Its purpose in more detinite terms is: To promote friendship among high school girlsg to foster school loyalty: and to strive for Christian ideals in every day life. The club. though only one year old, has already distinguished itself for the manner in which the members not only undertake, but carry out the various club activities. Both in work and in recreation the greatest enthusiasm to make So-Si-Y a success was shown by everyone, especially the officers, advisors, and. committees. After the organization of the club was completed, an extensive membership drive was begun. The slogan was, Every girl of South Side a So-SPY member. At the close of the campaign every girl except fourteen had joined. NVith 134 mem- bers the programs and discussions which were given at each meeting could not help but be successful. Some of the programs given during the year were: Let's Go, Bible Discussions, Camp Comics, 4 ' 1+ leminine Foiblesf' and Health Problems. The social atfairs of the So-Si-Y were many and varied. The tirst large party was a Halloween party in Fletchers barn, Then at Christmas a party was given for the children of the Allen County Orphans Home. The tirst annual banquet of the four high school clubs, the SO-Si-Y, U, S. A., Friendship Club and U. P. D. was given in january in the South Side Cafeteria.

This show was given for the purpose of raising enough money to help put a roof on the Y. XV. C. A. swimming pool. There were ten acts in the show, each one of which was very clever and unique. Both the boys and girls of Central and South Side took part. Those acts which will long be remembered are: The Mail Train, Athletic lVeclding. Terpsichorean Teasers, and Refreshing Punch. In April the girls entertained the South Side boys. just preceding this aifair, the members of the faculty and their wives were entertained at a St. Patriclis party. This round of social affairs was brought to a close by a picnic in early june. The service committee did much work this year. As a means of helping to till the So-Si-Y coffers, it was decided to sell arm bands at the football games. The demand became so great that every member outside and in the service committee was busy. The need for more was seen at the sectional tournament and the girls again made several hundred. Even if the supply was less than the demand. the protit obtained was quite a comfortable sum. At Christmas time. the service com- mittee heaped baskets full of good things and delivered them to several needy families. Beside this the girls decorated the cafeteria during the basketball tourna- ments for the players. The publicity committee also did line work this year making up posters and announce- ments. None of these parties could have been given or this work accomplished if the members of the So-Si-V had not put the clubs welfare foremost in their minds and the purpose of the V. XV. C. A, and So-Si-V foremost in their hearts. 'EL 'Y ..... Bavyfl 5 ? f'tzAg'J Om' llzrzfdlvif
