LIVE-WIRE CLUBS.
Central High Has Two With

There are two very live-wire girls
clubs at the Central High School, yet
their duties do not conflict and there
is little or no rivalry between them.
which speaks well for the organiza-
tions. These clubs are the Girls &C.
Club and the Bon Secour Club.
During the spring term at Central
High School the Girls "C' Club has
been organized and put in good run
ming order. The high standard of re-
quirements for admittance to tins
club place it on par with Western s
similar organization, the wv" club.
In spite Of the fact that the club has
been organized but very short time.
it has been a distinct help in several
of CentraIs largest enterprises.
The purpose. as set forth in the
constitution, involves the following
aims: To place the Blue-and- White
spirit, scholarship and athletics on
an irreproachable plane; to help
whenever called upon in any activity
for the benefit of Central: to raise
the value of the &C. in the estimation
OF non-"C" students; to arouse desire
and ambition in such students to earn
their school letter; to encourage girls
athletics. and to cooperate with the
Boys &c" Club in any undertaking &
for Central. Membership is limited
to those girls who have earned the
&C. in participation in school sports
and to team managers.
The president of the club is ap-
pointed by the principal. dean OF girls
and president of the athletic asso-
citation. The other officers are elected
by the girls of the club. The officers
recently elected are: Frances Walker
president: Edna kilpa trick. vice
president: Winifred Faunce. secre
tary. and Dorothy Merrill. treasurer.
1t is planned to make this club a
moving spirit in the varied activities
of the school next year. when the
girls in it will find many places for
their services to the school.
The Bon Secour Club of Central
High School was one of the first of
the girls friendship clubs Of the city
to inaugurate the custom of having
style shows to demonstrate the proper
colors for clothes for different types
of girls. as well as to show the most
suitable fashions for the schoolgirl
of today. This club Is also greatly
interested in social service work, and
during the past year has co-operated
with the Childrens Hospital and the
Old Ladies' Home. Among the social
activities of the club are principally
the big st. Patrick's day dance. a tea
for mothers and the fathers frolic.
The recently elected officers of the
club are: Ruth Cole. president Helen

everything from how to seal a letter
to what literature to read. The
sweet Alice, Ben Bolt" type is rapid
ly becoming an anachronism.
The ludicrous part of the problem
is that while no man wants a cling
ing vine as stenographer, many
men are still feeling rather abused
because daughter hasn't got the set
out fathers slipper habit and doesn't
stay at home in the evening to read
Laura Jean Libbey or have an excit-
ing game of checkers.
If father would realize that daugh-
ter is interested in his business and
wants to talk to him on an equal
plane and play poker with him or
read the same things he does, he
would find her much more COM
panionable and might not need to
worry because she leaves home to try
to find some one who will talk to her
upon an equal footing and expect her
to know about and do things of the
present day.

DUTCH PREPARING
RECEPTION FOR
ECONOMIC N EET
Adjourned Genoa Confer
ence on Russian Affairs
Will Meet at The Hague
Thursday of This Week.

The Hague, June II (by the AS
sociated Press Holland with ira
ditional Dutch deliberation and
thoroughness, is preparing a proper
reception for the adjourned Genoa
conference on Russian affairs,
which will meet here next Thurs
day. Vice Premier Barthou of
France has allegorically called this
because it was born of the supreme
councils meetings in the French
riviera which decided upon an eff
fort at European economic recon-
struction and called the Genoa con-
ference, of which The Hague
meeting is an outgrowth.
If one may judge from the re-
ports emanating from the various
capitals of Europe, however, the
health of the conference infant
leaves much to be desired. Official
Russian soviet utterances show no
disposition to abandon the soviet
stand on communism nor withdraw
the famous memorandum submit
ted at Genoa on Nav IL, which the
allies and neutrals alike found un-
acceptable as a basis for immedi-
ate negotiations.
This policy has provoked skep-
ticism throughout Europe concern
| ing The Hague meeting of the ex-
perts to go on with the Russian
discussions, yet everybody is pa
tiently awaiting Russia's final at
titude. Moreover, the recent re-
ports from Russia showing in
creased disorganization. increased
misery and an ever mu -iplying
death rate from famine, have ap'
parently convinced Europe that
some start must be made in saving
the Russian nation.
