The tattle-tale gray was taken out of all the schemes by the thorough rinsing of the Council when it gave its final consent to any plan. Quite often there was a struggle to decide just what should be done and when. At last the verbal soap suds were washed away and a plan for an Activities Association, a campaign for a more active creed of the school, and a new method for electing the Student Council president, which was in connection with a drive for a more responsible selection of officers in all school organizations, was revealed. The election of the president for next year was most startling. At a meeting in the Auditorium amid a rain of words and a thunder of noises, the nominees were finally elected. These several nominees expanded the school creed and themselves at noon in the gym for several days. This was similar to the campaign of the nominees for president of United States as the meeting in the Auditorium corresponded to a National Convention. A sprinkling of posters designated our attempt to make the creed active. Such suggestions as “What’s yours is not mine,” and “Try the cinder path for runs and not the school halls,” were made. Amid the thunder of applause the Council closed its year.
