Burnett The Tri-Hi, the sister club of the Hi-Y has been established in this school since 1930. It started with eight charter members and has expanded since then until now there are twenty- one members. The club was created so that the girls of this school could gain through it, the same ad- vantages the boys had gained through the Hi-Y. A library was started last year in one section of the club room by the girls. They worked hard painting the shelves a brilliant orange and making curtains for the windows. As a result a well-organized library came into existence for the use of the pupils. Annually the girls have put on a Tackey Party to which many of the Junior and Senior High pupils have come, and teachers as well. These have been a great success at all times, both socially and financially. This year the first High School Girls' Conference of Berkshire County was held in the Pittsfield Y. M. C. A. Nineteen girls from this Tri-Hi and three chaperons attended. This Conference proved to be a success as 180 girls attended, which was twice the number of the first boys' conference. The programs of the Tri-Hi this year have consisted of many fine speakers who told of their experiences in foreign countries, and some of the customs, thus enlightening the girls about other countries than their own. The Club has been very fortunate to have two splendid advisors, Mrs. Flinton and Miss Freeman. Under their leadership much has been accomplished and the girls appreciate their helpfulness. 25 QQSEQMQSQQSQE Q MQM

Mr. Clark the present advisor of the Club formed the Hi-Y here. Raymond Washburn was the Club's first President. Some of the things the Hi-Y trys to accomplish are: 1. To learn to make intelligent choices in situations where the right or wrong is not always clear. 2. To broaden our interests along constructive lines. 3. To learn the value, by experience, of genuine religion in our lives. 4. To develop attitudes toward other people- people of different races, religion, sex and economic level, that will make us happier and more useful members of any group or community. 5 To be able to discover our own best attitudes toward every day questions as smoking, drinking and cribbing, so that we will have found convictions of our own and not have to depend on the other fellow's judgment. 6. To be able to choose intelligently the right vocation. 7 To develop initiative, responsibility, leadership and team spirit. Every year several members attend a Twin State Conference for Massachusetts and Rhode Island. This year the Conference was held at Pawtucket, Rhode Island. In May, two of the odiicers went to Springfield to a Conference to receive instructions on carrying on the Club for the ensuing year. The officers that have just been newly elected for the coming year are: President, Fred Connors, Vice-President, Charles Steinhoffg Secretary, Lloyd Blair, Treasurer, Perry Darling.
