School Organizations Ariadna Literary Society The Ariadna Literary Society is one of the girls' organization . Girls from six teen years up or from the sixth grade up can he members. The society meets on the third Thursday of the school month except January. In December and March joint meetings with the Phoenix Literary Society are held. For the year of 1047-1948 the officers were: President—Jean Hauser Vice president—Patricia Rise Secretary—Alice Flint Treasurer—Ruth Tuinstra Librarian—Catherine Zick There were thirty-six members this year. We had a picnic at Fontana Park in honor of the new members. At the March joint meeting Mr. Harley Washburn, from Delavan, was our speaker. He gave a talk on his hobby, the Navajo Indians, who dwell in the southwest. After the meeting refreshments were served. Mrs. Washburn was invited to the meeting. The seniors had charge of the last meeting and they gave a little play. We hope that the seniors’ having charge of the last Aridna Literary Society meeting for the year will become a custom for this organization. The directors were Miss Mntteson, Mrs. Kelsey and Miss Coburn. Each director had charge of one meeting and all throe attended the joint meetings in December and March and the picnic at Fontuna Park. Phoenix Literary Society The Phoenix Literary Society is rather an old organization for the boys. The members are the boys above the sixth grade. It has regular meetings on the third Thursday of every month except in January and May. Last fall it started with twenty-one members ami added eight. Many times this year we had lively debates. Poems were usually given at the end of each meeting. Business was always taken up after the literary program. This year the boys had charge of the December joint meeting with the Ariadna Literary Society. A play A Boy Who Didn’t Like Geography” was given. Mr. Cameron also told a very interesting Norwegian story of how the ocean became salty. The officers this year are: Leonard Peacock, President; Keith Richardson, Vice President; Edward Czer-nicki, Secretary; Donald Reinick Treasurer; and Juntes Long, Librarian. Boy Scouts “A Boy Scout does his duty to God and his country. Boy Scout Troop 23 has been organized here for four years. Lust fall Mr. Duick was added to the Boy Scout staff as scoutmaster. Mr. Nogosek, Mr. Kastner, David Carlson, Edward Czemicki and Leonard Peacock are assistants. They are in charge of about 21 boys. They coached eight candidates for Tenderfoot Scouts. The regular meeting is held in the basement of Cochrane Hall at four o’clock every Monday. Most of the Boy Scouts here are working on requirements for first and second class scouts. They made models of covered wagons. Scouts of other cities in the Eastern District of the State Line Council had model wagons, too. and brought them to a two-day camp at Williams Lay. May 22nd, in celebration of Wisconsin’s Centennial. Our group made a large covered wagon like the small wagons and enjoyed riding in it. The Scouts here have had three overnight camps by their log cabin this year. They enjoyed cooking their meals, ami doing their outdoor scouting work, and having good times. 19
