 ©fir ©lub OST of us probably have devoted very little of our time to the study of the works of Shakespeare or any of the great master writers. Many, not knowing or realizing the value of these works, neglect the real study of them. A splendid opportunity is given by the Shakespeare Club for the senior and junior scholars of our school to develop the students’ appreciation of excellent writings and to aid them in the development of their own dramatic abilities. All those who join the club must have their standings in every branch above reproach. This keeps a high standard. The club has been exceedingly successful this year, and has proved its real value in more ways than one. At Christmas time several scenes from “The Taming of the Shrew” were presented. 'Hie assembly hall was crowded, and every one was much impressed by the manner in which the scenes were rendered. Ethel Shricr as “Katherine, and Will Johnston as “Pctruchio,” were worthy of great praise. Soon after this the members of the club commenced their work in earnest for their annual entertainment, and the zeal that each one displayed proved their interest in the welfare of the club. All the students of the school were expecting much from the club, and no one was disappointed, as the entertainment was a great success. The different scenes were well selected from “Merchant of Venice,” “Winter’s Tale,” “Macbeth,” “King John,” “Hamlet,” and the “Taming of the Shrew.” Certainly “The Annual Evening With Shakespeare,” as it was called, showed good management on the part of those who were at its head, and displayed the ability of the participants. However, the works given by the club before the public do not represent the entire work of the club. During the year they have studied very completely “Macbeth,” “Hamlet,” and “Midsummer Night’s Dream.” At the weekly meetings the various parts of these works were discussed thoroughly by the members. Some time was devoted to parliamentary drill, and many became efficient in this branch of their work. The officers of the year were Ethel Shricr, president; Abe Kurtz, vice-president; Harriett Borton, secretary; Grace Hower, treasurer, and Albert Korabeck, master of properties. All the senior members arc sorry to leave the club this year, but they are leaving it with a good reputation, a full treasury, and under good management. with Frank Drew' as president; Anna Northway, vice-president; Sidney Davis, secretary; Lotta Buerger, treasurer, and Allen Brett, master of properties. May all good wishes be theirs. 29
