The school is taxed to its capacity for| space, making it necessary to have a ! double shift for beginners. The ¢ ganization is now complete, and some of the school activities have started. The school bank is now open for business. 'The staff of the bank ie composed of Robert Riley, president: Ethel Baker, vice president; Roberta Hopkins, cashier; Gladys Myers, tell- er; Fred Booth, auditor; Edna Hum- mer, head bookkeeper; George Gates, assistant bookkeeper; Raymond Her- 208, asslstant bookkeeper; Amy Nor- ton, clerk, and Cyril Collell, runner. The school book shop has started the new year successtully. The new corps of workers are: Margaret Me- Closky, chairman; Clayton Brown,| | Harry Katz, Elizabeth Reilly, Edith | Miley and Margaret Whaley, assist- ants. The shop is established to ald| students in buying books at a_ low price, and also to enable the students to meil used books. The school lunch counter was origi- nated a year and half ago. It has been & success, as it affords Business students_the opportunity to purchase their lunches in the school at a rea- sonable price. For perhaps ten years Business has endeavored to get sufficient appro- priations from Congress to build a lunchroom, but nothing came of it. As the appropriations were not made, folding tables were obtained and placed In the east alcove of the first floor. When lunchtime is over they are folded and put away, and the beauty of the school is not marred. The small profit the school makes goes to the treasury. which has ac- cumulated above $700.
