P.B.D.C.
The Palladian Boys' Debating Club was organized in the fall of 1882. Impromptu speaking and drill in debate were the primary objectives of the club. At the time the welfare of the society was threatened by factional strife. One of the purposes of the club was to combat this factionalism and avert the dissoulution of the society. The society passed over its danger safely and began anew its prosperity.
All Palladian boys may become members by signing the constitution. The lower classmen have always been the most enthusiastic members of the club and it is due chiefly to their efforts that it has maintained its standard of excellence. During the past year the meetings have been enthusiastic and of much benefit in parliamentary drill and extemporaneous speaking.
This club with the P.G.D.C. is maintained in perfect harmony with the society, and it is expected that the two will carry on the greater part of the society business and politics.
P.G.D.C.
The Palladian Girls' Debating Club, which was organized in 1884, is an important factor in the Society. It affords an opportunity for drill in debate and impromptu speaking which no girl can afford to miss. The past year has been one of prosperity for the Club, and of great improvement in the members.
