The main purpose of this club is to .
collect and publish the High School

from this, to learn all they can this .
year about news write-ups, special <
(features, editorials, essays, poems and
3hort stories. They also hope to learn
how type is set, to correct galley ,
proofs, and to understand more about
the ways of a real newspaper reporter.
The club has elected the follow ing ,
p- officers: Chloc Creer, president: Veda
Kirk man, vice-presiden t, and R. K.
pr Bingham, secretary and treasurer.
?>; This club is composed of approximately.
ly twelve members who have so far ,
evidenced much enthusiasm for their
work, but since the individual interr
ests of the various mAmVw-*?a
known at present, no special reporters
have yet been appointed.
Those contributing this .week are:
Veda Kirkman. Chloe Greer, Thomas
B. Moore Jr., T. Edward LoviU, John
Idol, R. K. Bingham and Sam Ly- i
erly.

November 17, we were delightfully
entertained by a most interesting talk
by the Rev. Mr. Canipe, Boone's new
Baptist minister. The talk was about
; -. his trip to Europe and the Holy Band.
& It was enjoyed by all.
Also on our program was a little
$6 play, called "The Game of Life," presented
by the members of the OivicSociology
class, and written by a
member of the class.
The .play dealt with a poor boy who
*- lost a dollar, and whose Whole, future
S- depended on that bit of -money. "The
dollar was found .by a .worthy couple
3 who bought with it a whole handful
fl of balloons, and released them for
? the amusement of the street urchins.
jS The boy who lost the dollar drowned
himself in the river.
