Both the band and the choir have offered our students much experience and enioyment in the study of music. We have been taught the fundamentals in the Rudiments of Music classes. Our library is well stocked with about 5,700 volumes covering all subjects. The art classes were kept busy with their regular requirements plus the extra help they gave by supervising th decorations for the prom and making posters.

Several well trained English teachers are trying to help all students develop the art of correct word usage. Other than this we study the literature of both American and 'For- eign authors in our English classes. Young minds are easily influenced, therefore teaching the pupils to read good literature is an important task of all teachers.
