 ORCHESTRA The orchestra, while primarily a high school organization, includes several members from the grades. Probably it could best be called a “School Orchestra.” Most of the time has been spent in organizing and preparing for the future, when the orchestra will be a regular organization. Special emphasis has been placed upon instrumentation so that a well rounded group might be presented to the public. Only through good instrumentation can much be accomplished. We are slowly approaching that goal. The orchestra has made a number of public appearances during the year, being present at practically all school plays and appearing before P. T. A. Starting with 16 members it has increased to 30, at the present time, and we hope to enlarge the group. Since very few are graduating, next year appears as a year of promise. I. V.

 THE LATIN CLUB The Latin Club, sponsored by Miss Della Benson, has been well carried on this year. The members attended regularly and contributed gladly to the entertainment. The meetings have been held on the second Monday of every month. A short business meeting was always held followed by an interesting program, the purpose of which was to secure a better understanding of the Roman people. With understanding comes an appreciation for their manners and customs and adds interest and background to the work. For the programs, subjects were chosen which were not taken up in the regular class work or which needed further emphasis; such as Roman customs, Roman gods, Roman holidays, plays concerning Latin, and a debate on the question: Resolved, That Napoleon was greater than Caesar, as a man, as a general, and as a statesman. The social feature of the meeting consisted of Latin songs and games and refreshments. The officers were chosen for the half-year term and have done their work well. Kenneth McGooden......

GLEE CLUBS Although we have but one group shown we really have two Glee Clubs t —the Boys’ Glee Club and the Girls’ Glee Club. These organizations have not been in the limelight as much perhaps as has the orchestra, but they have been working all year upon fundamentals and tuning up, so to speak. The Girls’ Glee Club made several public appearances during the year. The Boys’ Club made its appearance in the High School Operetta, April 15th. They were assisted by the Girls’ Club. The Girls' Club entered the District Music Contest held at McCook, April 11th. It is to be hoped that the interest in these organizations continues, as the benefits derived from them are great.
