Clec Club Lower, Skctching Cluh Of course, all you want, answered Cooky. It would give me great pleasure. although to tell you the truth, I attended only one of the many musical concerts held in this school. The first concert was the one I attended. Quietly, I sncaked through a hole in the wall and succeeded in getting a choice seat in the corner where I could watch the proceedings unnoticed. First of all, the glee club occupied the center, offering several selections intended to amuse and entertain the audience. XVhen it finished, along came the Regional Band. QA regular ruhher hand, it could surely stretch a songlb After a few offerings on their part, they gave the Hoor to thc Orchestra. 'I'his group of students is similar to the aforementioned group, although there are more strings attached. And I do mean cat-guts! It was then that I moved myself hack a little further in the corner. One could never tell when the animal might fling itself off the handhox, and I'd be 'chewed with the cheesef Gosh, it makes me shiver to think of my narrow escape! Yes, yes. interrupted Ilani with horedom plainly written on his face. Do dispense with such nonsensical minor dc-tale-es, and go on with the story. Take your time. An actor never hurriesf' continued Cooky, 'lwhich should hint to you that I am ahout to tell you of another club-ah, yes, the Dramatic Cluh -in which 'all the worId's a stage, and all the men and women merely playersf I 37 sn- fl K, I GP' 7 W X :Q-Q x,r sl V '-4 X Y -r.

Ilamlet is a hoity-toity. high-falootiu' theatah mouse, and Cooky is the loyal, entlmsiastic 'tRegional mouse. Ilamlet came out from the big city to visit his old friend Cookman, and together they have contrived to build up between themselves a contest as to which one of them is the luckier Umus musculesf' 'l'hey make their dwelling at the southeast corner of the school in an old bread box where daily the breadman makes an interchange of dough. As Act I opens, we find the two chatting together. Clllllilllllll is trying to make ll'nnlet get off his high-horse by relating to him different facts about our school b lore he begins to show llllll around the building. Yes, indeed, he went on to say. a more musical place you've never seen. XVhy, the students' nmsical inclinations are so extensive that class periods prove to be insutlicient, and more time for music must be found in clubs, etc. XVell, I won't believe it till I see it, replied Ilam firmly. But I've never seen a club that didn't belong to night, and I don't think that they are quite appropriate for the growing child. Can you give me a little more information about your musical activities before we go on? - ...-.An'!f.sk? I. in Upper. Band Lower. Orchestra
