This organization, made up entirely of girls, has spent many hours in practice for its numerous performances this year. Only they, knew the hurrying and anxiety ... the collars popping out at the last moment before stage-time . . . the last frenzied look in a mirror . . . the intense heat surrounding the rostrum throughout a rendition . . . the final note and the curtains closing ... a sigh of relief and a rush for the hall and cooler air. Yes, our glee club has worked and achieved a name for itself in the surrounding community. Miss Tennihill has taught us new ways to form words . . . how to make harsh words sound soft . . . high notes, clear . . . low notes, deep. Our rented gowns have added a note of elegance to our club . . . we initiated them at the Christmas concert. We dressed in formal guise for the senior high operetta, H.M.S. Pinafore” only to don our gowns again at the presentation of The Crucifixion”, the Easter cantata. It was then that we chose new music to prepare for the annual music festival. This has been a great year in music ... we shall never forget it! C A mixed group of twenty-five voices formed a new and exciting music organization this year. They coined their own name . . . wrote parts to some of their music . . . practiced faithfully and produced a program of popular numbers which they presented at the senior class play and the one-act plays. This first taste of the popular was good . . . next year we will make it better. 'r avetuutaczed til »M f » c Left to right, First Row; L. Serfling, T. White, J. Harstad, D. Ellingson, C.

The Future Farmers of America is a national organization of farm boys, preparing themselves to be the better farmers and farm leaders of tomorrow. Each member has had an agriculture project in which he has used new and improved methods of farming. Thus he has and is preparing himself for a new era in agriculture through learning by doing.” Under the able guidance of Mr. Lee, the boys met regularly once a month, and had a chance to learn proper parliamentary procedure, develop their leadership qualities, and take part in a wholesome recreation program. One of the outstanding events of the year was the second annual F.F.A. banquet given in honor of the parents with 138 in attendance. Mr. Clifford Simon, former ag instructor, and Pvt. Rufus Alexander, formerly a member of the group, were speakers for the occasion. In the five years that the F.F.A. has been part of Harmony High, five boys have received state farmer degrees and this year nine more outstanding members are making applications for this honor. Vernon Michel, who already has an outstanding farm production program in operation, is being considered for the highest degree of star farmer. 4-W dud Left to right, First Row: J. Erickson, F.

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again” . . . that was our motto a few years ago and we used it again this year when organizing our senior mixed chorus. The boys were wary and uncertain of the usefulness of vocal music in their activities but after much encouragement ... a lot of talking ... a glimpse at the music in store for them . . . they began to attend rehearsals . . . each time in growing numbers. We experimented at first with patriotic music and then dipped into old favorites like Old Man River” and Roll Chariot, Roll”. This group sang nobly throughout the music department’s operetta and trained itself for competition at the music festival. The Junior chorus, too, showed their growing ability with an enchanting performance at the junior class play. Their appearance stole the audience’s eye immediately . . . boys in coats and bow ties . . . girls in their best frocks and hair ribbons . . . they made a hit and intend to live up to it!
