Each homeroom purchased a poinsettia to present to its teacher. The poinsettias were not only a money-making project, but also a seniice to the school since the plants gave the school a festive holiday atmosphere. New ideas for an upcoming candy sale are discussed at a Columbians meeting by Sally Jackson, president, Selling the poinsettias was part of the purpose of the Colum- bians which was to create more interest and participation in school functions, to co-operate with the extra-curricular activities of the school, and to perform services for the school. This the members did by selling football programs, candy, and 'Beat the Bears' stickers. They also built a float for the Rebel Week float parade during homecoming festivities. if Columbians 143
