Music edu- cation in high school is often the beginning of a greater appreciation for one of the greatest arts and provides a pleasant outlet for en- thusiasm and emotions. 1 i i CHRISTMAS PROGRAM The annual Christmas program, under the direction of Miss Martha Buck, was held in the auditorium on December 19, 1946. About 200 stu- dents from grades three to twelve inclusive participated.
