CLASSES, CLUBS, COMMITTEES QContinued from Page 375 The Library Committee sponsored by Miss Gafford, and under the chairmanship of Jane Gilbert, has been one of the most forceful projects this year. They have promoted an unusually fine interest in books. They have greatly improved the library by adding new current books, and stimulating special attention in keeping the library up to date. A rental shelf has been added and this has aided in paying for all new additions to the library. The Lost and Found Committee under the guidance of Miss Huff and the chairman- ship of Roberta Fisk has cared for all the lost articles this year. The percent of loss has been low because the committee, by means of an attractive bulletin board Whose posters have been changed weekly, has developed a sense of pride in the students, and they, in tum, have taken better care of their belongings. By this decrease in lost articles, the committee has proven most successful. The Traffic Committee, sponsored by Mrs. Randleman and the chairman, Maybelle Buckley, has aided this year in keeping traffic regulations between classes and before and after school. Their work has been most beneficial in maintaining order at all times, and through their numerous posters and bulletins they have kept the passages free at all times. Because of their excellent work, few tardies between classes have had to be recorded. The Etiquette Committee, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Peters and the chairmanship of Shirley Berry, has been a tremendous aid in all etiquette problems confronted by the students. They sponsored an assembly stressing the essentials required in fine manners, and their points were secured through observation at luncheon tables. They also dem- onstrated the particulars involved in the receiving line at the Prom. It is through the efforts of the Etiquette Committee that the observance of fine manners at all times has been put into effect by the students. The Social Welfare Committee, sponsored by Miss May, with Louise Hinman as chairman, has been written up in another article in connection with the Social Welfare Club. Also, the Dress Committee, sponsored by Mrs. Smith, with Lillian Bachofen as chairman, is referred to more fully in the Council write-up on another page. ADVANTAGES OF AN ASSIGNMENT BOOK CContinued from Page zzj ' resemble birds, prehistoric bugs, or botanical freaks. Therefore the teacher need not be worried if the student has on her noble brow, wrinkles of perplexityg she is just trying to decide whether an ant is more symmetrical with four or six legs. What juicy pieces of gossip would be lost if this neat little book were not present! What altruistic motives would be dulled if this same book did not inspire the student to thus unselfishly amuse her lethargic companions! A cunningly executed, wiscfully humorous little sketch of a teacher or a fellow student will brighten those little faces, tired with the deep thinking sponsored in every class, and will turn the overwrought brains into happy channels! Teacher! Do not begrudge them this innocent amuse- ment. And then, too, one can always write one's assignments in this little notebook. -Caddie Mozier, junior GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION QContinued from Page 561 . earnest combats during a series of games which were held at the St. James' Gym.
