Clubs in the High School.

More and more the schools of the
country are beginning to perceive the
relative importance of clubs, as educa-
tional factors, to the regular schooi
work. The faculty and students of b. ii.
S. realize the value of the various clubs
to the school; and it is with the idea of
ACCOMPLISHING something worth while,
and mt the same time to afford social
good times, that the club work of the
school is carried.
A club which has proven particularly
beneficial and practical, as well as very
ENJOYABLE. is lie Cercle Francois, the
French club The object of this club is
to acquire greater fuency in the use of
spoken French. At the monthly meet
ings of the Cercle nothing but French is
snoken until the social hour. Not only
do the members of the club enable
themselves to speak English with greater
facility. but the constant use OF the IAN
guage al the meetings makes 1t seem
more symbolic and inspiring. This same
plan could be, and has been, successfully
carried out in connection with the study
of Spanish.
The Commercial club affords an excel
lent opportunity for practice in business
methods and forms, and an application
of the principles taught in the CONNER
cial classes. Then, too, the talks given
by outsiders on the many details OF bust
ness life and a business career are fun
Of instruction and helpful suggestions.
Though the club is primarily business
practice club, the members unanimously
declare that it is not lacking in anything
, along the entertainment and social line.
The Dramatic club, n ''play-working
eigraf 1111Pn
stimulate interest in standard literature
i through the dramatiZatio and study OF
good plays, is new club this year. With
! the formation of the Dramatic club most
/ people possessing dramatic talent or
! stage-managing and costuming genius
| will be given more opportunity to make
use of their ability for work in dramatics
than heretofore. That the Gub VIII be
/ one of the most educational. interesting.
and successful organizations Brattleboro
| high school has ever had is rendered
! self-evident by the enthusiasm and gen
! eral willingness to work for the improve
ment of the club, already expressed by
! tine members.
/ Another club which offers many advan-
tageS Is the Radio club. The meetings
are devoted chiefly 10 listening in ; and
| frequently interesting discussions are
held on radio subjects. Who can tell
but what someone who has been eSpe-
cially active in the work of this high
school club will acquire a distinguished
place in the outside world as a result OF
his efforts along this particular line
All in all, the advantages, the OppOr-
| tunities, the benefits, and the Importance
of these various clubs can be plainly
seen. Work is mingled with pleasure
and it is these clubs which make the
social life of the school so enjoyable and
50 much more inclusive.

down a cheering squad which was double
the number of r. II. $. rooters. The
match was played on our home courts at

of backing they have we would Swamp
them easily. 4 rival team says that.
and still the tennis team fights alone.
L. II. $. has played V. ~ twice. The
first time b. III. s. held an advantage
of three games and the second time an
advantage of two games. B. II. s. win
play V. \. at the academy next Satur-

In assembly Monday morning the
church chorus sang the Triumphal
March from Aida, one of the numbers of

that Mr.. Caverly gave a forceful talk,
the most important points of which are
the following: He quoted these lines
The man worth while is the man with
a smile when everything goes dead

for victory and it should be the beginning
of many victories.
At the football game last Saturday the

Only one team can win, but as players
and hackers we must do our best.
Our school adhered to the Headmas-
tiers Rules; however, we are sorry to
say that our opponents did not strictly
abide by these.
A single defeat must not mean discour

department of life. First we must find
out if the wrong is with ourselves. If
not we must have a determination 10

look at with regret. but it should create

victories is not the way of life.

Interesting French Magazine Received

Two interesting French magazines
have been received from French CORE
spondents. The following are accounts
of these:
Ala Fitzgerald. of the French lila
class, has received a very interesting
magazine from her French correspond
ent, who lives in scissors; AlSne. Inc
name of the paper is Les Annales and it
is published weekly by the SOciete NOu-
yplie de Publicite New Publication So
cietv). 1t is a widely known French
paper and is in reality a petite maya
zine" and it contains accounts OF rather
far-reaching and varied subjects. The
cover is very artistic, although II Is not
in colors. but merely n brown study. II
has some very interesting, as we'll as
amusing advertisements, containing
much the same advertisement material as
do our advertisements. 1t reviews cur
rent topics. political, financial, literary.
theatrical. and latest sport news. as well
as having a well-balanced fiction and joke
department. 1t also has a fashion sheet,
household department and several poet
zeal bits. as well as a short play that has
been produced in a well-attended French
theatre.
1t contains a section entirely devoted
to the latest scientific news. The issue
on Sept. II deals especially with the
total eclipse of the sun Sept. 81.
1t is somewhat like our American
newspaper. III that it has a column of
wants. important sale items, and spe-
cial notices.
1t is altogether a very complete little
magazine and may we'll be of interest to
the whole family. The prints. illustra-
tons, etc, make ii an unusual maya
zine. differing from the ordinary type.
Clarke Maynard recently received a
magazine written in French which is
I'll l..
Belgium. This magazine may be likened
to the st. Nicholas of our country. It
is divided into very interesting depart
mentS of current topics. forestry of the
world, French colonies, science and aerial
works. In the issue of September the
total eclipse Of the sun and its effects
are Interestingly taken up. Views of the
observatory and diagrams made there
are included. The recent disturbance in
Dublin and its consequences were shown
revealing that current events" are in
vogue in magazines for children in for
elgn countries. In connection with the
aerial works, the building of new
American dirigible is commented upon
and photographs of it are given together
with views of new types of airplanes.
The forests and methods of numbering in
different countries are described and pic
ures of the forests of the United States
Canada. France, Australia, Japan and
Java are given. The colony of Cambodia
in the Siamese peninsula and its king
are described with accounts of the Gus
toms, government and natural resources.
Belgium and France are welcoming
our motion-pictures with open arms and
one of those whose popularity is the
greatest is Charlie Chaplin. The Kid.
and My Boy. The article speaks of the
Kids (Jackie Coogan's) world reputa-
ton and shows scenes from some of his
pictures.

II may be added that this paper is about
