Preston Garlough; vice president, Eleanor Bull; and secre- tary, Ruth West. A large share of the honor for the club’s achievements is given to the worthy director, Mrs. Work. Her splendid leadership, together with equally splendid cooperation of the members, soon started the chorus on the road to success. At the Home-Coming Banquet in February, the chorus presented two groups of secular numbers; April 15, the group broadcasted an Easter cantata over W-AIU in Colum- bus,, and presented the same contata, entitled “The Lord of Life,” Easter evening in the local Methodist Church at the Union Service. Miss Dorotha Corry has been the accompanist for the year. The Girls’ Glee Club The Girls’ Glee Club, composed of twenty-two mem- bers and its capable accompanist, Miss Dorotha Corry, has been doing splendid work this year under the supervision of its new director, Mrs. Work. The officers of the club are president, Jane West; vice- president, Doris Hartman; secretary, Carma Hostetler; and librarian, Florence McLaughlin. The club has made numerous public appearances. It sang at the Boys’ Bible Reading Contest, the Day of Prayer for Colleges, Wilberforce University, the second United Presbyterian Church in Xenia, the Parent-Teachers Asso- ciation at Ross, the United Presbyterian Church in James- town. and the Glee Club Concert. If the public has enjoyed listening to these programs as much as the club enjoyed giving them, the year’s work has truly been a success. MARGARET J. WORK ProfcMor of Music. French ami Kntliih ; A.
