This is not a secret organization, as the name would imply, but it is an unusual Club. When this Club was organized at the beginning of the Second semester of 1926 and the name submitted to the High School, everyone laughed, but as the school year closes, the laugh goes the other way. The word “Ikikilkie” means, “Striving for success,” and every member of this Club has lived up to the name to the extent that it is one of the outstanding Clubs of Wilson High School Everything undertaken by this Club has been a success. One of the greatest benefits derived by each member of the Club has been in the memorizing of Kipling’s “If.” Another successful undertaking was the play “The Hicksville Bungler” in which this Club with the Scribblers went “over the top” and made it possible for the Basket Ball Girls of ’26 to have sweaters. The Ikikilkies say: “He who laughs last laughs best.”
