I iJaffHV a a ■ [MU f A Ell f. f l Farm Club The newly organized Farm Club lias had a short but busy history. They are doing a real part in bringing victory.

The officers are: President, Robert Zabel; Vice Presi¬ dent, Don Avery; Secretary, Lawrence Pagels; Treasurer, Don Bogen. Other members are Robert Meese and Jim Reed. Rural Students Some of us are country dwellers— and we love it. Daily, we travel to school. Time, tide, or the weather seldom stop us. ★ ★ Debate Many new debators and speakers en¬ tered Mr. Nadeau’s classes in September. A year of widely varied study and activity followed. The debators traveled to Kala¬ mazoo to match argumentative power with other teams. Assemblies Our assemblies this year have been interesting and original. Due to the war, the different school organizations have presented skits, speakers, and concerts, for enjoyable entertainment, instead of de¬ pending on outside talent.
