'I W .Qzizkz 671115 VVe are two years old. But what a lusty and precocious youngster we arel YVe have already outgrown our infancy. In the Techennial of last year we commented that we hoped our road, then so strewn with boulders, would he clear of many of these obstructions this year. Time has vindicated that wish. At the first meeting of the term the club enrolled a membership of nearly forty, which is about three times as many as attended the first meeting of the preceding term. The attendance has been very good at all the other meetings, This year we have the advantage of Latin VI. This new and advanced course widens the scope of the club's pro- grams. Heretofore the subject matter was restricted to the work covered in the second year course. Now, however, we can include work connected with Cicero and the poet Ovid. The programs have been varied, and appealed to the club members. As usual they prepared individual talks upon many sub- jects which are intimately related to the Latin language and race. Some of these included matter based on the daily life, customs, manners, religion and architecture of the Romans. At one of the meetings a musical program and humorous skit were presented bv the students. At another meeting, llliss Swanson, teacher of Latin I and H, talked about the conference which she and lVIr. Phipps had attended, This conference of Latin teachers was held at Ohio VVesleyan University at Delaware, Ohio. The club sent a group of posters for exhibition in the conference. Our teachers reported that the WVood- ward group was one of the best on display. ln conjunction with the French and Spanish Clubs the Latin Club issued an edition of the Tattler. This number was very interesting, contain- ing articles of great diversity. Ylvhen we say that without the aid of lllr, Phipps the Club would not have progressed so far or so rapidly, we mean it. It is not a stock phrase. ln every activity he aided all that he possibly could, throwing himself into the work with an enthusiasm and good-will that inspired the members and officers to give their best for the sake of the organization.

Character roles were taken by some of Toledo's best singers, while the various Glee Clubs made up the chorus. The real success of the club was due to the faithful work of capable ot- ficers. During the first part of the year the officers were VVebster Lowe, Presi- dentg james Paige, Vice-presidentg Lenore Purclesl-ci, Secretary and Treasur- erg Frances Lowe, Publicity lXIanager. As the majority of the officers left school, it was necessary to elect new ones. The result of the election made Helen Castor, Presidentg Lawson Wright, Stage Managerg Wilbur Castor, Publicity Manager, Lenore Purcleski, Secretary and Treasurer. Ons hundred seven L ,Il ,iigilzlp ,
