HUGHES ESTELLA SCHULER CLEO GARBERICH Music Extension lt has for a long time been customary in Gallon High School to give a credit unit for satisfactory parti- cipation in high school musical activities. ln the fall ol' 1920, with the opening of the school, a plan was in- augurated which extended the range of music credits. Students ol' the school who are also studying music outside of school hours in the form of private lessons, necessarily spend time in practicing much the same as they spend time in preparing their recitations for the regular school routine. With this in view, it is only fair that they should be allowed credit for their work along those lines. It was our own Mr. Deetz who suggested the pres- ent plan, which, while not new in many schools, was entirely novel in Gallon, and which has proved a de- cided step forward for our High School. 'I'he extension plan in operation provides for the giving of private lessons at the High School building during school hours. thus showing its first advantage, that ol' time-saving. Each school period includes a test consisting ol' playing at least. one new selection before the private teacher and the principal, and sometimes in the presence of interested parents and friends. Each student is graded under various phases of the music which he is studying, such as tone, interpretation, po- sition, cleanness, and memory. Here we have the second advantage plainly before us: namely that placing the study of music on the same basis of importance and grading with the regular school studies results in more conscientious work from the student, and a greater co- operation between the special and the regular teachers. A department of Music History and Harmony was also established, with Mrs. C. J. Hughes as supervisor. Along the same principle, classes in expression are being conducted by Mrs. Loren Beck. At the end of each year, a commencement. recital is given by the students of music and of expression. The school authorities are to be commended for their ctroperation in this project, while the school itself is to be congratulated upon supporting such a worthy enterprise.
