All the late news and facts concerning stamps were discussed and much valuable information was exchanged. On April 7th and 8th, a stamp exhibit was held at the school. Some of the interesting items were: patriotic Civil War covers, a set of Spanish Loyalist stamps, the most artistic and ugliest stamps, several complete sets of United States stamps including a rare set of Parcel Post stamps.

ORCHESTRA The high school orchestra, begun six years ago, has improved much in the last year, When it was first organized, the orchestra was led by Mr. Oscar lones, a very able instructor. Mr. lones stayed with us for two years and then Mr. Roger Calderwood took his place. After Mr. Calderwood left our present instructor, Mr. Stetson, came to the school and with a great deal of effort on his part and the part of others, made the orchestra an active organization, perhaps, the best we have ever had. Mr. Robert Stetson, the leader, was graduated from Bowdoin in 1918 with an AB. de- gree, from the New England Conservatory of Music in 1928, where he taught piano for one year. Later he studied at the Surette Summer School and the Columbia Teachers College. This year the orchestra played for the One-Act plays, twice for the Grange, and for the Portland Teachers Convention, with other schools.
