a u riiftgl fe :ff Poster Club OON after school started this year, the appearance about the halls of Junior, of posters, advertising shows, football, games, etc., effectually announced the organiza- tion of a new club, the Poster Club, with Mr. Stringer and Miss Musgrave as sponsors. The new club had two purposes, to give students interested in poster work a chance to do their stuffng and to fill the coffer of Junior High, as a result of well advertised, well attended shows. At the first meeting, October 1, the following officers were elected: Raymond Orren, president, Reginald Butcher, vice-president, Charles Felder, secretary. The slogan, It Pays to Advertise, was adopted. It was agreed that no charge would be made for posters advertising shows, activities, anything sponsored by Junior, thus saving the money which had formerly been spent for advertising. The calendar of the year's work included many interesting and remunerative tasks -remunerative in appreciation by various departments as a result of our efforts. We feel that if enjoyment of one's work and satisfaction at having accomplished at least a part of the tasks set for ourselves are measures of success, we are indeed successful. However, if we have lived up to the ideal of Charity beginning at home, by our efforts to carry out the Biblical instructions, Bear ye one auother's burdens, the Dramatics Department has gone a step farther and has immortalized that passage, By their works ye shall know themf' for it is to them we are indebted for our rep- resentation in the Annual.

These young people are called upon to lead in any group singing and to appear also in the public performances given by the music department. Of the last mentioned their most important appearances this term Were: the Open House program, November 105 Parent-Teachers meeting, December 95 The Operetta, Way Down South in Dixie, presented January 18g our Christmas Cantata, On to Bethlehem. The Glee Club was assisted by the combined chorus classes of our school and the Cantata was given upon three occasions, twice in our own school, and once at the Broadway Presbyterian Church Sunday morning, December 26. Members of the Glee Club feel that credit for the success of this department is due wholly to the superior knowledge of music and the excellent qualities as an instructor of their teacher, Miss Irma Poindexter. The Glee Club members thoroughly enjoy their work and expect to possess the same personnel next term, with additional members.
