GLEE CLUB Under the direction of Miss Stafford a very fine Glee Club has been organized. The club gives programs for special oc- casions, one of the best being the sing- ing of Christmas Carols. In 1936 the Wal- lace Club won second place among the high schools of Washington County, a fact which we hope has opened the way for the attainment of first place in 1937. 4-H CLUB The desire of Wallace girls to have home economics has been realized to some extend by the organization of a 4-H Club. Miss Getha Jackson, the home demonstra- tion agent of Washington County, met with the high school girls on November 5, 1936, and organized the club. The girls enjoy working with each other, and the club is progressing rapidly under the able leader- ship of Miss Jackson and Mrs. Homer Lo- Sueur, her assistant. Each girl has a 4-H Club book which she made, and each is going to make a dress and to complete one pro j ect . There should be a 4-H Club in every school because it is beneficial to the school and the girls in future life. The officers and their respective offices are as follows: Mary Jane Bonham - President Lillian Lundy - Vice-President Ernestine Hawthorne - Secretary- Treasurer Eva Clendenen - Song Leader Caroline Whitten - Reporter Elsie Cole, Christine Smith and Sexton Grayson - Program Committee Ann Taylor, Lorraine Jones, Margaret Talley - Finance Committee
