They compose our orchestra, which provides music for the various entertainments and social affairs of the school and the town. This year several new members, Florence Raski, from Sugarloaf, and Lillian Yost and Sara Freedly, from the Junior Orchestra, were added to our orchestra. The orchestra is progressing rapidly under the capable direction of Mr. Rosbach, who has taken Mr. Knowlton's place. As Seniors, we wish the orchestra of the future much success. 17

During the fall athletic season the band attended all the important athletic games and provided splendid music as well as colorful marching exhibitions. Besides playing at all athletic events, it partici- pated in many parades and presented concerts. Many changes have been made in this organization within the last year. Mr. Sidney Rosbach has replaced Mr. Williaiii Knowlton, founder and organizer, and is carrying on the fine work. ln the past year the players obtained uniforms through the co-operation of the Band Parents Association. Having uniforms greatly improves the appearance and color of the band. The Senior Class wishes to extend best wishes for success to this organization in the future.

Everyone was paired up as they should he, and the marriage broker was disposed of in the good old American way. It was ably directed by Miss Mary Hartman. 18
