gfwfi. . ..... The Wayne chapter of the FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA, a nation-wide club, was organized as a means of giving new insight and understanding to the field of teach- ing. A thorough program was organized to stim- ulate students' interest in teaching as a career. ln the fall, the club members visited elemen- tary schools in the township to extend their knowledge of various teaching techniques. Later in the year, they gained actual experience by teaching classes they had observed. A field trip was taken to Paterson State Teachers College to find out the academic and personal requirements for entrance to the pro- fession. One of the foremost contributions of this club was the continuance of the Story Hour, formerly sponsored by the Preakness Women's Club, at the public library. For one hour each Saturday morning, the members read to chil- dren from Hve to nine years of age to increase the youngsters' desire for reading. A realization of the effects of conservation on economic development and every day life led the CONSERVATION CLUB to study the great out-of-doors objectively, construc- tively and safely. For job employment and education in this Held the different aspects of the mining and lumbering industries were investigated by using films and field trips.

SIGNIFERI - Miss Dorothy Fulboam, Adviser LE CERCLE FRANCAIS has learned about the customs and interests of the French people. In the informal atmosphere of meetings, folk-dancing and singing provided enjoyment for the members. With the minutes being taken in French and this language prevailing in the conversations, there was an opportunity for the students to increase their vocabulary as well. The members saw an English translation of Moliere's Le Misantlarope at the avant-garde Theatre East in New York. Their Christmas party featured the olden-day candlelighting ceremony. On January 10, the club held the an- nual Epiphany Party, La Feta' des Rois, at which the king was chosen by finding a charm that had been baked in a cake. Their educational field trip was an excursion to the United Na- tions building. To climax the year, a banquet was held at the Auberge Provencale, an authen- tic French restaurant in Chester, New Jersey. Because Latin plays an important part in our everyday life, the members of SIGNIFERI have dedicated themselves to developing an ap- preciation of our heritage from the ancient Romans. The objective of the club was to be- come better acquainted with modern Italy. This active club, as a member of the Na- tional and State Junior Classical League pro- grams, attended the board meetings and na- tional convention. While there, the members had the opportunity to view many films per- taining to Rome and Italy. The club's contri- butions to the convention were the presenta- tion of a Roman fashion show and the display of the Latin newspaper they had published. Their final event of the year was a banquet of food typical of the Roman era. At this ban- quet, guests were dressed in costumes adapted to the Roman theme. bf lk.
