GLEE CLUB Both Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs were organized this year under the direction of Miss Titcomlb. The freshmen girls met on Fridays, while the other students, both boys and girls, met on Tuesday. The big event of the year for the glee clubs was the production of the operetta, Cro- codile Island, in which members of the clubs appeared either as princi- pals or as part of the chorus. At this time, the Glee Clubs extend their sincere appreciation to Miss Titcomb for the time and effort she has spent on us, and the entire fac- ulty for their aid and support in the operetta. Agnes Horgan '36, APPRECIATION We, the Echo Staff, wish to thank Miss Prew and Miss Leary for their cooperation, Mr. Anketell, the mem- bers of the faculty, the students, and the friends and merchants, both in Canton and neighboring towns, for their their generous support to our magazine. To next year's Echo Staff we eX- tend our sincere wish and hope that they will have a very successful year. The Editor.
