N H Student Association THE Association is the organization of the student body for the purpose of further- ing its activities and promoting the highest ideal of comradeship, loyality and school spirit. In addition to the business program regularly presented by the officers each month, an all school gathering has been held monthly. We had a September hike; danced among the fall leaves in October; heralded our pedigree pets at the Animal Show in November; and glided gaily through the Holiday Formal. Following the usual custom at Christmas Time the students assembled a large family of well dressed dolls for the Goodfellows, and filled ample-sized baskets for thirteen families. Especial mention should be made of the treasury report this year. The 1931 Association re cord is the only report that shows 99-8% collection of dues. This result is credited to the determined efforts of the treasurer. OFFICERS Isabel Jackson President .... Ellen McQuade Vice-President . . Almeda Keeper 2nd.

O N H IT f rp ' p - . ' - ' f ' j ' r n ,P , | , J .W P ' . P r :p OfSp Glee Club OUR Glee Club has become one of the most prominent activities of the school, and surely, one of the most fascinating. Under the capable direction of Mr. Charles Frederic Morse, another year has successfully passed. Those of us who are near the end of our course in the school, are beginning to realize how much these weekly meetings together have meant to us. After eight hours on duty, music, with all Its various meanings and interpretations, has a way all of its own of refreshing us and helping us to appreciate another side of life. Not only do we sing, but Mr. Morse teaches us some of the theory of vocal music by emphasizing enunciation, phrasing, breathing, expression, and by giving us a general understanding of music as a whole. Last vear, in place of the annual concert, the Glee Club presented an operetta, The Wild Rose. During this production, we discovered some of our members were not only musically, but also dramatically inclined. The vear ' s program would not be complete if we failed to sing Christmas Carols through the Hospital at that joyous season. The girls who are members of the Glee Club are certainly repaid in knowledge and appreciat ' ion of music, for the small amount of time spent. Had we not participated, most of us would have felt that some phase of our education had been neglected.
