The Girl Reserves I wish to face life squarely, to find and give the best, and to serve others. This slogan is in the mind of every true Girl Reserve. Their symbol is the blue triangle, which represents the Body, Mind, and Spirit, placed within a circle, or the the world. The Waukesha branch of the National Girl Reserves consists of six groups, one from each class in the Junior High School. Their names are chosen by the group members and are as follows: 7B. Busy Buzzing Bees: 7A, Willing Work- ers: 8B, Y's Yer's: SA. Gheerio: 9B. Lincolnettes: 9f-X, Amelia Earhart. Each club has its own adviser, who meets with them. The advisers are: Miss Isabel Meyer, Miss Marianna Dickie, Miss Doris Jensen, Mrs. Vernon Rossman, Miss Estella Wolf, and Miss Lucille Lickly. The meetings are held once a week at the Y. W. G. A. rooms. At the regu- lar meetings programs of some kind are always presented, including plays, parties, or talks on travel and etiquette. Handicraft has also been introduced into some of the clubs. At Christmas and at Thanksgiving time, baskets are sent to some needy families, each member of the club contributing her share. These baskets contain food, clothing, and toys. Once in a while teas are held for the mothers, when the mothers and daughters have a social hour together.

This year, thinking that girls of the same type and interests would work together better than . those of different types and interests, they were divided into ,, four separate groups: Leon, S. O. S. tSeekers of Sunshineil, Rollicking Reserves, and Girl Reserve Generals. Each group has four officers-president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. In some groups the latter two offices are held by one person. In addition each group has an adviser. The ofiicers of each group, together with the group ad- visers, Mrs. Lomas. Miss Harnes, Miss Kunde. Miss Wiese, and Miss Lickly as general adviser, form the Laf-a-Lot Cabinet which works out problems of importance to all the groups such as the amount of dues, parties, etc. This year the Laf-a-Lots have been doing more toward international friendship than ever before. They have also been helping the city with welfare work by doing Red Gross sewing, and sending out baskets to needy famlies. All in all, the Laf-a-Lots do not only have good times for themselves but find much pleasure in helping others. Page One Hundred Seven
