We Uncover All Old Scrapbook Ill Our Treasure Chest W'hile rummaging through the chest, we located a scrapbook wedged in one corner. As we open it, clippings, yellow with age, fall out. Scanning them, we find one which tells of the Hobo Party, an outstanding event sponsored by the Sports Council. On the first page of the scrapbook is a large clipping praising the skills of the students who participated in the Gym Show. How well we remember this popular feature sponsored by the Boys' Leaders Club and the Girls' Leaders Club. Next we pounce upon a program from the Spring Concert given by the High School Band and Orchestra. XVhat wonderful work our musical groups present: it is truly a privilege to play in them. And here is an article labeled Bonsoir Mes Amis ! Upon reading it we discover that it tells about one of the meetings of the French Club, an organization for third-year French students. The supper menu of the small French restaurant which they attended in Boston intrigues us. lVhat fun! Now, what is this? XVhy, an account of the annual Christmas Party for the needy children of lVakefield, sponsored by the Commercial Club. These happy memories are precious, indeed! just beyond this item is a small Christmas decoration, a reminder of the lVinter Carnival so successfully directed by the Student Council. And here's a clipping of the Inter Nos Club. Another item entitled Starlight Ball tells of the Inter Nos Dance, which gives the girls a chance to invite the boy of their dreams to be their escort. Xvhat are these? XVhy several copies of the Lookout, our school news- paper, which is read with avid interest by the students. All the school news and events are covered by the efficient staff. A page decorated with Spanish dancers now confronts us. Several clippings describe the programs of the Spanish Cadets and the Spanish Club. Both organizations have a large membership. just look at this item! It presents formation and plans for another new organization, the Rifle Club. Yes, girls as well as boys belong. As we examine this scrapbook, we recall many happy days and a wealth of varied activity. So why not open the book and share our joys? Happy looking! Patricia Beasley and David Hugo Page Twenty-six
