MIXED CHORUS s, yin We wish to thank our fine music director, Mrs. Barker, for the fine music program she presented to us through the school year. We enjoyed presenting a Christmas program, titled, Why the Chimes Rang,' We were able to rent an organ from Shierling's Music Store, giving the program more effect. The F.F. A. worked very hard fixing the scenery, leaving a very beautiful effect. We participated in a musical program given by the Cecilian Club in the East Side Gym, Union City, Ohio. Four schools participated in the program, namely, Union City fEast and West Sideli Iackson, Indiana, Wayne. The program proved to be very entertaining and beautiful. We also enjoyed the County Music Festival. All the county's schools participated in this, making a large choir and orchestra, The students enjoyed this program more than any other program they had the privilege to attend. JUX N3
