The closing- number last term contained an account oi nearly all the concerts. The band concert was something fine, the climax of a long series of rehearsals. We owe much to Ir. Ernest LaSelle, for its occasional noon concerts are but a small part of the work the band is doing for the school. On Wednesday, December 14th, Miss Ruth Smith. ' a B. ]i. S. girl, and Miss Dorothy Brooks gave a piano recital that Vv-as received with great enthusiasm. The duets were particu- larly enjoyed. The ten minutes added to the noon period this term will be i: help to the concerts, for the time was too short. Among the important concerts of the near future is one promised by the famous Boys ' Band of the Lockwood School, Oakland. Mr. Herbert von Meyerinck has promised a clarionet recital, ] Ir. Kurt Steindorf one for the violin. Several piano recitals of high class are booked, among them one by Miss Lois Porter of the King Conservatory of ] Iusic, San Jose. All will remember how she took the school by storm last February. We are also looking forward to a program by the B. H. S. Boys ' Quartet, to be given in a few weeks. 11

Sunset The sun, receding bright, Changes bhie waves to gold ; then lowering light Alter the brilliant hue, and golden waves In ever-dark ' ning red, bespeak the coming night. Lowering still, through cloud attendants gay, It stoops to kiss farewell at close of day ; Then, like a wizard, vanishing from sight As darkness falls, it says, O Golden West, Once more, good night !
