SELF-REALIZATION The following explanation was given: By the time students reach high-school age, they usually have some definite interest in life, not necessarily their career, but some subiect in which they find they are most proficient, into which they are best able to project themselves. Through the program presented by the high schools in America today, young people are able to develop all sides of their character and personality. In the present crisis, it is highly probable that the youth of Ameiica will be called upon to serve in the present plans for National Defense The only way in which we can do our part is by realizing what we aie able to do, and knowing how to do it. Central provides a diversified program which gives each student an opportunity to realize and develop his ability in any of many varied ac tivities. 4 1 'TI Lil -' 'i' .

He will learn not only to sing sacred, secular and modern music, but will develop an appreciation of music which will last throughout his life. He will have an opportunity to appear in such public performances as the Christmas Program, Assembly Programs, Sunday Afternoon Con certs, and many others. One of the newest features in the Aimy is the organization of a Glee Club in each regiment, and John's high school pre paration will enable him to take advantage of this opportunity Elizabeth may have a craving for Music, too, and she may become a member of one of Miss Freda Neal's classes, the Choir or the G11 ls Glee

ElllL'S GLEE EL B EU SISTS The Star-Spangled Banner, Oh, long may it wave, O'er the land of the free, And the home of the brave. As the closing strains of our stirring National Anthem ring out, it is easy to understand one part music has in National Defense. For defense, it is imperative that the people feel a deep loyalty to their countryg a strong patriotic desire to aid. And music is one of the paramount meth- ods by Which this feeling may be inspired. At Central, the Girls' Glee Club, instructed by Miss Beulah M. Ben- nett, provides a primary part in the program for self-realization. The Glee Club is composed of forty-seven specially chosen voices, which must be suitable for ensemble work and true to pitch. Since it meets every day, it is a full credit class.
