M H S. DEPARTMENT OF' MUSIC GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girl 's Glee Club, consisting of the student singers of M. H. S., is a pro- nounced feature of the musical life of the school. It has been seven years since a Girl 's Glee Club was first organized in our School, and this year's club has proven itself to be the best that has ever represented Moundsville High. The material, from which the club is select- ed, has been exceptionally good this year, and, as a result, we have grouped together many excellent singers. The success of the club is due to the untir- ing efforts of our director, Miss Nesbitt. Success of the club was demonstrat- ed in the year 1919, by a recital, and by t'An Old Fashioned Singing School, given at the Park Theatre. In the year 1920 the club provided entertain- ment for the teachers attending the In- stitute in Moundsville. In the spring of 1921, patriotic selections were ren- dered for the Naturalization of For- eigners. And, o-n March 3rd, 1922, the club presented The Lady of Shalott, a Cantata. The program was very fa- vorably received in each case. SARAH E. MEREDITH Member of Glee Club 1-2-3-1. PERSONNEL Essie Clark, Accompanist. Miss Mary Nesbitt, Director.

SOCIAL LIF-'E SENIOR CLASS PARTY One of the most successful events of the season was the masquerade party given by the Senior Class on Oct.-, 1921 in the Manual Training Room. The room was very artistically decorat- ed in following out the color scheme of orange and black to suit the occasion. The corn shocks were arranged around the sides of the room and also thru the hall where the guests passed in order to gain admittance. Helen Ernst and Earl Chambers received prizes for be- ing the best dressed there. At a sea- sonable hour a very delightful luncheon was served after which the guests re- paired to their ho-mes all having had a splendid time. JUNIOR CLASS PARTY On Jan. 21, 1922, the Junior Class of M. H. S., had the first party of the new year, and what was considered the best party of the school year. The party was held in the Manual Training room which was tastefully decorated in both class and school colors. The main feature of the evening was the Minstrel Revue of '22. This minstrel, given by eleven boys was at scream from the en- semble to the finale. Many jokes were told of fellow students, and several songs were sung. After the minstrel came the tournament, and then follow- ed the great guessing contest which was won by Ed. Echols. The eats were scrumptiuos, as a certain Freshie said. Everyone was feeling fine so they broke loose on some wonderful harmony which lasted until Good Night Ladies ended the fun. FRESHMAN PARTY The Freshman Class under the sup- ervision of Mr. Tilock, held their first party of the season in the Girls' Assem- bly on Dec. 9, 1921. The room was deco- rated in the class colors which were green and white. A male quartette consisting of Bob Jones, Fred Parriott, Jim Robinson, and Heck Spoon enter- tained the folks for the greater part of the evening. Various other games oc- cupied quite a bit of the time. At a seasonable hour the guests all entered into a Grand March to the Domestic Science Hall and each, getting their re- freshments, made way into the assem- bly, to eat. after which the guests de- parted il homes.
