A great deal of effort has been expended by the offlcers to bring before the Round Table speakers who have had many years experience and who consequently have a definite and worthwhile message to deliver. Interspersed between the meetings with speakers have been those at which timoviesi, of interesting subjects were presented in a pleasing manner. The Round Table has been active in promoting interest in orchard judging and has not only secured competition with other colleges, but has taken upon itself the promoting of interest in this subject in the high schools. Mr. W. P. Duruz has given a great deal of his time and energy to the students interested in orchard judging, and it is here that. the Round Table wishes to express an appreciation of this service. The orchard judging committee has been very active and numerous trips have been made throughout the surrounding country. The trips were planned with the idea of covering a great deal of ground and of giving the students as much practical experience in this work as was possible. The trips have not been confined to restricted areas, but were made to different sections of the country. The number of students who took part in these tours is ample proof of their success. . To secure funds for its varied activities a movie show was given and the annual dance is being planned for some time later in the semester. Much of the success of this organization has been due to the officers. They have worked conscientiously in order that the meetings might be both interesting and instructive. Certainly their efforts have been well rewarded. E331
