Brad orc! Q4nnaL5 year. The Leonoras are to be congratulated on having as their director once again Professor Downs, who has always devoted so much of his time and interest to their work. The Glee Club gave a concert at South Groveland, which was one of the most enjoyable events of the year, and a great success. We are anxiously awaiting their concert in the spring term, for we know that something very good is in store for us. A new departure this year has been the formation of a school choir, chosen from the members of the Leonora Society. Their work so far leads us to expect a great deal in the future. It is a good step toward a strong choir, which we have so long desired. The Mandolin and Guitar Clubs are working well, and we hope soon to hear from them quite frequently. As long as we have such able and devoted instructors in our musical department we are sure that there will be a steady progress in the interest and enthusiasm displayed. 1,2-32:21-EC'-Q: .E ' 1' W i l ia, l l
