WAR WORK1 With the big truth before us that we arc fighting to make the world safe for democracy, the Superior State Normal School has endeavored to do its part. The school as a whole has participated in more patriotic campaigns this year than tny other year heretofore. The Students Friendship War Fund drive took place in the fall. The students of this school pledged $1S3. This sum is divided between the Y. W. and V. M. C. A. war funds and the Affiliated Student Friendship Fund. Many books and handkerchiefs were also turned in for the soldiers. The Red Cross Campaign was conducted in this school the week before Christmas. Professor Gillett and Miss Clark directed the students in this drive. The school was divided Into two teams, the white and the black. Lionel I arson was the general for' the write team and Allen Cowie for the black. Larson's colonel was George Moore and Cowlc’s, Gordon Nelson. Jo May was Adjutant General Under each colonel were five captains, each of whom chose five team workers. The morning of the opening of the campaign the teams, dressed in white decked with their colors, lined up and marched through the Normal and High Schools with shouting and tooting of horns. With this spirit the whole school was fervently canvassed. The whites were victorious by securing one more Red Cross member than the blacks. The total membership was 51S, thus going far over the lop, the 100 per cent, mark being 450. {Continued on Pttgt 50)
