Here we are again in the midst of another successful season in which we feel that we have been useful to the school. At our first meeting the following offi- cers were elected to guide our bark on an- other happy voyage. They are: President -Melbourne Stremmel Vice President Evelyn Niebrugge Treasurer -George Graham Secretary and Life Correspondent - - -f - - -Margaret Allshouse Thus with Miss Dussuchal, our direct- ress, and Lela Bunte, our pianist, we set forth on our tour with a song on our lips. On February ninth the faithful attend- ants of the club received their letters. They were: Marcella Oechsner, Grace Schonhorst, Ruth Willis, Clara Fick, Alice Crusius, Margaret Allshouse, Meta Vol- kening, Lela Bunte, Gladys Rowray, Hor- tense Nichols, Katherine Lawler, Violet Weiser, Louise Magoon, Roma Schaefer, Hildegarde Kemmler, Estelle Schmidt, Charles Weil, Donald Dowling, Cecil Richardson. For those who had done solo work, a star was added to their letter. They were: Marcella Oechsner, Meta Volkening, Lela Bunte, Gladys Rowray, Violet Weiser. On February fifteenth, Adam Rosenthal spoke in the auditorium and invited all students with a love for music, to come and help us carry on. Many have responded, and in consequence we have been forced to start Waiting lists. Early in March, the Choral Club started its service program by singing for Miss Randall's play for the benefit of the school library. Among the selections rendered were MacD0well's song, The Hymn of the Pilgrims , and several other old hymns. On the evening of March twenty-first, we helped boost the school tax by singing, The Sextette CLuciaD-, Donizetti, Pil- grim's Chorus CTannhauserD--, Wagner, and two tax songs. The audience was very generous in its applause of our efforts. We are especially fortunate in having a number of members whose artistic talents engaged them in many outside interests, such as choir work, orchestral practice, and elecution performances. Among them are: Lela Bunte, Clara Fick, Evelyn Nie- brugge, Katherine Lawler, Virgil Bowers, Melbourne Stremmel, Louise Magoon, and John Grunik. During the latter part of April the Club, represented by twenty of its members, will take part in the annual concert given at the City Club. We always look for- ward to this engagement for the good time we have and the good time the City Club members say we give them. Our early offering, this season, will be the performance of a Comic Opera given on the evening of June second, Swords and Scissors or f'Napoleon Caught Nap- ping . It is a Comic Military Millinery Opera which we know will please our many friends. Page Eighfy-Four

'lil-l lf HCI-I lthl ii CLUB E1-:WIN ANDERSON .1 Under the guidance of our mentor, Mr. Bell, we are nearing the close of our second successful term. Many of our charter members were lost through graduation but in place of these ge have obtained the following new mem- ers: Elroy Arndt, Charles Bisbee, Amy Claus, Rosemary D'Arcy, Leslie Drews, Robert Dunlap, Ruth Groppe, Jack Haem- merle, Alice Hagemeier, John Kappel, E- dyth Kleykamp, Loretta Kraft, George Lowenguth, Ethel Martin, Georgia Mc- Coy, Lee Mulvihill, Charles Scheitlin, Fay Daine, and George Voss. Of the original charter members the following are still members of the Club: E. Anderson H. Kruse M. Benson W. Niederlueke M. Carpenter A. Niemoeller O. Goehler H. Smith H. Klein Other members who did not have the honor of being charter members, but who joined the Club during the first term of its existance are: Margaret Allshouse, Olive Hayes, Louise Menke, Evelyn Niebruegge, Gerald Paul- ey, Louise Rapenus, Adam Rosenthal, Karl Schambacker, Adele Schwiete, and Dorothy Wilson. At the last meeting of the past term the Club selected the following officers for the current term: Hardin Smith-1President Louise Menke-Vice President Walter Niederlueke-Secretary Maurice Benson--Treasurer Erwin Anderson--'Lifei Correspondent Harry Kleinf-Sergeant-at-Arms Adam Rosenthal-Librarian Continuing our plan of last term, that of having members give lectures to the Club, we have enjoyed some very inter- esting and instructive talks. The first one on ' 'Foods was given by our mentor. It will be remembered by all the Hplump' ' ones because in it he outlined a method for reducing. The next talk was delivered by our President, Hardin Smith, on ' 'Iron and Steel' '. Unfortunately he was taken sick and could not complete his talk. Never- theless the part he did give was so inter- esting that we forgave our Hon. President. Mr. Bell completed the lecture. Miss Ol- ive Hayes gave the next talk. Her sub- ject was the Manufacture of Soap' '. She explained to her audience the physical and chemical processes. After a lapse of one week the Club heard a talk on Soda by Miss Louise Rapenus. She gave a com- plete description of the two common pro- cesses used in manufacturing soda. Besides hearing these lectures, the Club has made several trips to various manu- facturing houses. On March 15th the Club went to see the waterworks at Chain of Rocks. Here the members saw how the City 's water is pumped and purified. The next trip was made on March 29th to the United Drug Cols. plant. Every member agreed that the candy department was the best in the whole plant. On April 26th the Club took an automobile trip to the Na- tional Stamping and Enameling Co., Gran- nite City, lll. This excursion also proved very interesting. Now, as to what the A tChem Club real- ly does for the student. The purpose of the organization is to enlarge and supple- ment the knowledge of Chemistry gained in the classes. In addition, it gives the student experience in parliamentary drill and public speaking. Perhaps you have noticed that some of the students are wet ring a pin consisting of a gold retort with a blue enameled HY' ' on the bulb. Th s emblem signines that the wearer is a member of the Chem Club. If you are desirous to know more about the Club and its work, just ask the owner of one of these pins to tell you. Since the June graduation will deprive the club of many of its members, the re- maining ones extend to the students who have a knowledge of Chemistry or who in- tend to take it, a most hearty welcome to become members of the best organization at Yeatman.
