The French Club The French colony in Starrett in the form of the French Club has been a flourishing enterprise .this year. This club, besides being a very etiicient source of entertainment for our French students. affords them the opportunity of being able to converse in this language with considerable ease. Miss Stout is our sponsor and the othcers of the club are as follows: president, Evelyn Collinsg vice-president, Margary Dickeyg secretary-treasurer, Elva Britt. One of the most important functions of this organization is to accustom the students studying French to conversing in French outside of the classroom. The French Club prides itself on the effective way in which its programs are conducted. So many unique programs have been produced that it is quite diiiicult to tell which was the most popular. The flrst meeting had for its theme the ucineman. Moving pictures were shown in which Harold Lloyd played the leading role and another in which our favorite Mickey Mouse performed. During the intermission, French ushers paraded up and down the aisles selling peanuts and candy. Another one of our most attractive meetings was held in the form of the interior of a Modiste Shop. The president of the club had the role of the Couturiere. Various types of clothing were modeled by the club members. The clothing included sport clothes, formals, pajamas and lingerie. Three of the members who speak French quite fluently enacted a clever skit which Htted well into the theme of the program inasmuch as it was comprised of a bride-to-be and her fiance who came into the shop to review the maimequins in order to select a trousseau. XVhen the beautiful display drew to .1 close, delicious tea and cakes were served. Our Baby Party, at which we played games in French, proved to be a great success. Une small girl, a member of the club, xxllas wheeled by her nurse. into a photographers shop where the iidgeting baby had her picture taken much to the amusement of the onlookers. Before the meeting, a collection of baby pictures was made and a contest was held in order to award a prize to the person who could guess who the babies were. Lollypops were served and prizes were awarded for the best costumes. All in all we have a grand French Club. I ol B---'Q 5- D s P P 5 5 T A F anti: at Fr. . t'Q5,' : I . vllggis .
