C cuile c i iea The local elementary school enrolled sixty-nine pupils this year, dis- tributed as follows: Primary 14, Lower Intermediate 20, Upper Intermediate 18, Junior High School 17. The work in each grade has been based on the Course of Study and basal textbooks. Art, music and dramatics have had an important place in each room. Plays based on stories and historical events were written and presented in the Intermediate grades. Holidays have been observed by the presenta- tion of Washington, Lincoln, Armistice, Easter and Christmas pro- grams. Come Ye to Bethlehem, a pageant cantata, was presented by the grades, assisted by the Glee Clubs. Nadita, an original Mexican operetta, was presented by the grades, the funds to be used for playground equipment. To develop more knowledge and interest in America, a Travel Bureau with the motto See America First was organized as a social studies project in the Upper Intermediate grades. In the material gathered by the pupils, 48 states and 7 countries were represented. Art has been based on freehand drawing, cutting and painting. A Santa Claus castle, medieval castle and knight, wigwams, paper mache bowls, wood- work, woodburning, weaving, cork, cotton, yard and button dolls; historical and health projects and the sewing club are some results of the art activities. Many new library books have been enjoyed by the children. Reading clubs have been formed to encourage reading. The well rounded curriculum of the year has proved very profitable and most enjoyable. 15

The Boys' Glee Club has been singing four-part music again this year, which is a bit difficult for so few voices. As yet we have not made a public appearance, but as the boys say, We sing because we like to sing and not because we want to perform on any program. First tenor—Harold Decker, Melvin Bitz, Richard Weikum; second tenor— John Curtis, Howard Schlepp; first bass—Tommy Row, Roy Garner, James Hill; second bass—John Woodward, Bob Kincaid, LeRoy Eidahl, Hal Gollehon and Russell Wikstrom. Ernest L. Lunden, director. Music is harmony, harmony is love, and love is God. —Sidney Lanier. To be able to sing or play well even a simple melody, gives a satisfaction to the soul that cannot be derived from hearing the greatest artist perform. Every soul deserves this happiness. With this in mind no girl has been barred from our club, which has a membership of nineteen. Our aim has been to gain an increased knowledge of sight reading and to develop part singing. We have within our club a two-part and a three-part chorus, as well as a double quartet. Our public appearances have been: several miscellaneous programs, Senior Commencement and the Christmas pageant-cantata, Come Ye to Bethlehem, in which several boys joined us to make up the choir, while the first six grades told the story in pageant. The personnel of each part and the number of years each has been a member follows: First soprano—Ruth Rouns 5, Lois Hill 3, Rachel Jermunson 5, Gladys Hemry 1, Electa Peeler 2, Erma Weist 2, Ruby Anderson 2. Second soprano—Martha Keller 3, Edeline Larson 2, Lois Copenhaver 1, Cecille Gul- lickson 1, Laura Curtis 2, Mildred Banka 2. Alto—-Gladys Kauk 5, Lucile Bur- dick 2, Phyllis Burdick 1, Betty Gollehon 3, Rebecca Gollehon 1, Erna Weikum 3. Viola Zimbelman has been our patient, faithful and able accompanist for the past two years. Miss Margaret Berg has been director for the same period. The band this year is the largest in the school's history, having a mem- bership of forty-four, including the drum major and twirlers. The Seniors we lose by graduation are Mildred Thompson, clarinet; Viola Zimbelman, trum- pet; Robert Kincaid, cornet; Lucile Burdick, trombone; Gladys Kauk, baritone; James Hill and Hal Gollehon, basses. A large audience heard our annual concert, which was given Friday, March 1. Our drum major, Johnnie MacLean, made a striking appearance in his new uniform and black fur shako. The twirlers also dressed in new outfits and who performed at the concert were Phyllis Burdick, Erna Weikum and Dickie Anglemyer. The new members in the band this year are Raymond Shideler, clarinet; Edeline Larsen and Mildred Banka, saxophones; Rebecca Gollehon, alto horn; Freddy Banka, trombone; Betty Gollehon, cymbals, and Rachel Jermunson, piano accordion. We are again going to the Havre Band Festival. 16
