Tina R li C O R D 5 I i-F:ll lI ?' Q I tt or tal !3RZ lgql Z lmll 'I WlYl5S'l'ER HALL Y the will ol' the late Iohn C. Webster, a sum ol' Slllkllllll was given to the town ol' liinglield lior the purpose ol: build- ing a town hall, or buying one. At town meeting this year it was decided to erect such a building on the Stanley school grounds. This will he a decided advantage to the school because it will have Il gymnasium in it. and thus basketball games and other such activities can be held in this hall without making it necessary for the pupils to Work extra time to earn money to pay hall rent. lleliore this, the boys and girls could get only a liew hours practice each week, because they had to pay lor hiring and heating the hall. Now they can have much more practice and consequently stand a better chance of having winning teams. A regular gymnasium period can he given because the building will he near the school and there will be sullicicnt room and equip- ment. The use ol' the hall will save a great deal of money when the classes have dramas and speaking contests. Drama rehearsals also can he held there and the ones taking part will have more practice on the stage, an impor- tant lactor in producing a good play. 'l'hus the hall will be ol' advantage to the school in holding indoor athletics, dramas. and speaking contests. For the town, it will atlord a town hall in which to carry on the various town activities and will contain the town ollices. 1. M. W. '30 NVHY EVERY HIGH SCHOOL SHOULD HAVE AN ORCHESTRA MUSIC in the schools is a much discussed subject as nearly every citizen sending scholars to the town school is to some degree interested in music. ll the high school has an orchestra the people ol: the town will take more interest in the school and co-operate more liully with the scholars. A school orchestra will save the school much money, as it can play at nearly all their activities, entertainments, and exercises which require music or an or- chestra, thus drawing larger crowds. Again the school will receive more support from the townspeople if the scholars try to help themselves and show a lively interest in the extra curricula alfairs of the school. A school orchestra would be of advantage to the individual scholars as it would give them an opportunity to play some musical instrument when otherwise it would be ii- nancially impossible for them to learn to play. This would cause them to take more interest in and receive a greater benefit from the school other than scholastic training. Music itself is educational. At the present time no one's education is considered com- plete without some musical education. There- fore, having a high school orchestra would save the school much of the money it now expends in hiring an orchestrag it would bring music into the school: thus increasing the student's education and possibly give to some student tue opportunity to play some musical instrument which otherwise it would be impossible for him to learn to play.

'Q 6 l H E R CO-OPERATION STANLEY HIGH SCHOOL is very grateful to the townspeople for their eo- operation during the past year. Hy co- operation she means the support they have given her by attending any activity that the school carries out, such as basketball, base- ball, drama, carnival, and movies. This year Stanley High School tried to have two basketball teams but if it had not been for the interest the townspeople showed in her non-winning teams she would have given it up altogether. To show their inter- est in the school the townspeople are spend- ing the Webster Fund , to erect on the school lot, a building called Webster Hall , in which athletics, dramas, entertainments. etc., can be practiced and given with no extra expense. Stanley High School has taken a high ranking place in county track and baseball and doubtless the townspeople feel that her basketball teams, if they had a place where they could get the suliicient amount of practice necessary, would stand among the best ranking teams alsog thus they have very liberally taken this step to help her. Stanley High School needs and appreciates this support, for without it she can do nothing. Helen Beurce '30 ECORD 'llnu Kinrzifnitn Hion Sonooi. Honou Ciziaiwi' Svsrism I.
