The Girls' Student Council HE seven members of which the Girls' Student Council consists are selected from various classes. One is chosen from the intermediate class, three from the senior class, two from the junior class, and the secretary of the freshman class auto- matically' becomes a member. They are nominated by petitions, signed by the girls in the different classes. At the first council meeting the group is organized, and a president, vice president and secretary-treasurer are elected. The Girls' Student Council acts with the Men's Student Council in supervising and directing school activities with the help of the principal and other school authorities. The two councils conduct tours and excursions for the students to points of interest in and about the Twin Cities. This year some of the places visited were the Pillsbury Flour Mills, the State Capitol, the Art Museum and the Minneapolis Public Library. These tours are educational as well as a means of recreation for the students. The Council acts as an advisory board to assist new students and it helps to solve problems outside the jurisdiction of the Girls' Self-Government Association. -OLGA FRUECHTE. Page Sc'z'z'u1y-nine

BLOMBERG, RICHARD MENDENHALL. The Menls Student Council HE Men's Student Council consists of seven members. At the beginning of each school year the different classes make nominations by petition, and from the nom- 'inees the council is elected by the student body. The intermediates have one memberg the seniors have three membersg the juniors, twog and the freshmen, one. The primary duties of the council are: to represent the student body in communica- tion with the school authoritiesg to serve as an advisory board when matters of im- portance ariseg to supervise student activitiesg and to act as a student government asso- ciation. For some time the extra-curricular activities of the students have been controlled by a system of honor points. In many cases the rating which was used was not satis- factory. In view of this fact, revising of the honor points seemed necessary, so with the cooperation of the faculty and the Student Worli Committee, they were changed this year and will be more satisfactory to all. This year marks the twentieth council that has been in operation, the organization having been created in the fall of 1912. After almost two decades the council is still as active as it was when it started. This long period of service has been made possible by the splendid cooperation of the students and faculty. -ARTHUR FAHLAND. Page Sevenfy-eight

HE Young Men's Christian Association, which is one of the oldest organizations on the campus, has been very successful this year in both its religious and social activities. . A stag party was given the first Tuesday of each term, and on the following Saturday a Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. mixer was held in the gymnasium. Both events were well attended and many new acquaintances were made among the new and old students. ' Every Sunday morning Song Service was held in the Fireplace room of the Home Economics building, which was sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. Here Dean Coffey met the group and gave his interesting and inspiring talks. Fellowship meetings were held Thursday evenings. These meetings opened with short periods of worship, after which talks were given by prominent men. Last quarter Dr. Harrison told of missionary work in Arabia. Mr. Drew gave a demonstration in knot tying and Gene Wilson showed pictures of a Canadian canoe trip. This term a series of character and personality talks was given by different well known speakers. Two joint meetings were held with the Y. W. C. A., the one an outdoor hamburger fry and the other a stunt clinic. An outdoor winter party was sponsored by the two organizations. The secretary, Jack Sleeper, deserves much credit for the success of the Y. M. C. A. -HJALMAR HULIN. Page Eighty
