The Year Bonk of Achievements Pagents It has been the custom to give pageants every year or two. The last one, two years ago, took in activities suitable for an Elizabethean Garden Party. This year we gave a May Party, involving all those in the Physical Education Department. It was more or less impromptu, owing to greatly crowded conditions, which we hope will be relieved by a new gymnasium in the near future. Page Twenty-one

UAnnuaire, Brookville High School Art (C)NE of the most interesting rooms in our building is the art room. Students working in this room under the supervision of Miss Olive Jacobs, have an opportunity to apply their originality and inventiveness, to learn to love color and good form and to make some dreams come true. This year, the work done in the Art Room has proved most successful. This has been due partly, to the fact that there is a new, well equipped art room.. The room, with its large windows, admitting sufficient light, is most attractive. On the wall are hung the hand work of the pupils—pencil and charcoal drawings, lettering, block printed cards and book plates as well as the very colorful paintings on glass, the landscape sketches in pastel and travel posters and designs. The training is practically the same each year, but new problems are introduced from time to time to increase the enthusiasm. As the results are placed on the wall, the work of each class increases the interest of the other classes. The practical side of our Art Course is evidenced by the attractive cards made and sent out by the pupils at Christmas, by the painted scarfs some of our girls wear and by the book-ends, telephone screens, table scarfs and pictures which decorate the homes of our art students. It is truly worth while to attend classes held in this room. Page Twenty-two
