The ofiicers of last year were: president, Kathryn Luceg vice-president, Ruth Sindlingerg secretary, Mary Elizabeth Connollyg treasurer, Gladys Pippenger. There are about 25 active members and meetings are held on Monday evenings in the Y. VV. C. A. The purpose of the club is to promote friendship among the girls of high school age. The motto is: I will try to face life squarely and to lind and give the best. Every semester a main topic is used for the meetings and diferent phases of that topic discussed. For last semester the subject was of the Vocational Opportunities. i But the meetings are not all serious and the girls have many good times. Once every month they have a supper before the meeting. Also they have many hikes and picnics. The I'Ii-Y boys and the Girl Reserves have parties to-gether and do many things together such as. the boys writting letters of My Ideal Girl and the girls of My Ideal Boy. They often help each other out such as the time the girls prepared supper for the boys basketball teams. Also the Friendship Club and the Hi-Y gave a joint assembly for the school. Miss Owen and Mr. Brannon gave short talks and there were different stunts given by the two clubs. The Friendship Club has helped many girls to become better acquainted and has created a greater interest among them. I Pagr Om' Hundred and Fo-url

It is a very exclusive organization and only those students who take 12 A Virgil are permitted to join. The club is sponsored by Miss Reid, and without her interest and hearty cooperation it could not succeed. One meeting is held each month during school hours. At this meeting both humorous and educational programs are given and the members learn a great deal concerning the classics and ways ofliving in Old Rome and Ancient Greece. Entertainment is furnished, consisting of pantomimes, Latin conundrums, Latin plays, or some other kind of amuse- ment. After the program a social period of refreshments and music is enjoyed. The refreshments consist of some form of food which the Romans themselves ate. Each member of the club has a Latin name, by which he is known at the club meetings and in the regular class. Whenever Miss Reid is unable to attend class, the Aeneid Club officers take charge, and the work goes on as usual. The Princeps Aeneas of the January class was Ronald W. Smith and the Scriba Dido was Irene McKnight. For the June class Barbara Wood is Princeps and Gerhard Derge is Scriba. To the Princeps and the committees appointed by him is entrusted the success of all the club's activities. IPag: Ons Hundred and Sixl
