high school age. They have done their part and more in the Thanksgiving and Christmas basket drives. One of the nicest things that the Tri-Y has done is to acquaint the older girls with the younger girls. It has given more unity to the school which is important to any high school. The only objectionable feature is that it isn't as strong as it could and should be.

WEST LAFAYETTE'S TRI-Y TRI-Y CLUB EDUCATES GIRLS OF WEST SIDE When a girl becomes a mem- ber of the Tri-Y club she auto- matically becomes a junior mem- ber of the Y. W. C. A. and her purpose is to be: Gracious in manner Impartial in judgment Ready for service Reaching toward the best Eager for knowledge Seeing the beautiful Earnest in purpose Reverent to God Victorious over self Ever dependable Sincere at all times The membership of the Tri-Y Club includes one hundred and twenty-five girls from all classes. Under the leadership of Miss Ruth Sinks, with the assistance of Miss Dorothy Meyer, the group helped to carry on the work of the Girl Reserve this year. The theme of the society this year was the "Tri-Y Aims", and at the meetings, which were held once a month during the school year, the club did an excellent job of carrying out its purpose. Many items were included in the year's discussion. One of the best was the talk given by Mrs. Mc- Fadden, after which an open dis- cussion was held on the subject of "Teen Age Problems". There was also a very interesting talk on knitting by Mrs. Dean, and a fashion show at which many of the girls belonging to the club modeled the clothes they have had made for their personal wardrobes. A speech was given PAGE TIIIITTY-TWV!! by Miss Clark on the connec- tion of the Tri-Y with the Y. W. C. A. She is the secretary of the latter organization. Miss Sinks added greatly to the entertain- ment side of the meetings with her many fascinating talks. TRI-Y PARTY IS DIFFERENT In the spring, the Tri-Y girls gave a dance in the school audi- torium, which proved to be quite a successful affair. A great per- centage of the school body at- tended, and the membership of the club was admirably repre- sented. The most popular affair of the year, however, from the view- point of the Tri-Y members, is the Mother-Daughter tea. This is an annual activity, and one which the parents of the students can particularly enjoy. This year's tea was very successful. In the second semester, Tri-Y joined with the Hi-Y in present- ing H320 College Ave.," one of the most breath-taking, hair- raising, thrilling and exciting dramas ever given at W. L. H. S. The proceeds from the play were divided between the two clubs. MEMBERS GIVE OWN OPINIONS I think Tri-Y is one of the most honorable organizations a girl can belong to. It has very high ideals and if every girl that is a member tries her best to live according to these, we can and will raise the moral standaxqds of to-day. With Tri-Y comes much joy, not only for today but as long as we desire it. Soph. Marian Wierenga. elf DIG 251 At the close of my first semes- ter in Tri-Y I find that it has meant many things to me. First is the comradeship of the girls in Tri-Y and their high idealsg sec- ondly, I find that their programs have been interesting as well as helpful. I also have enjoyed their social functions and belonging to this club is a real privilege. Frosh. Beth Schaupp. 1 1 lk As a freshman B in the fall I joined Tri-Y, and through Tri-Y have made many friends that are really true friends. Everyone is so nice to you that you don't feel that they look down on you as just a freshman. You don't know how much that means to a girl when you enter high school. The programs are interesting to ev- eryone as well as educational. Everyone is made to feel like they are as much a part of the club as the officers. Tri-Y is one friend that every girl should make and keep all through her high school life. Frosh. Susan Mayer. :lc zj: :iz The Tri-Y Club of West La- fayette High School has been in many ways a very worth-while organization. Their meetings are unusually instructive especially on subjects concerning girls of
