Girls’ Glee Club The Girls’ Glee Club was for the first time in five years given a part in the regular activities of Laurel High. They have practiced hard on three and four part songs which are known and loved by all. The object of this teaching is merely to teach the girls the appreciation of music and connect them with some of the ideas of music rather than for the subject itself. They are given one-fourth credit for their work and are under the instruction of Miss Florence Shirk. DEPARTMENT Girls’ Mixed Double Trio One of the smaller groups of musicians during the year of 1938 and ’37 was the Girls’ Mixed Double Trio. This group was organized by Miss Florence Shirk, instructor of .singing, in the fall of 1936. They entertained at many public and school functions, including a Rotana dinner, P. T. A., School Assemblies, and an L. L. Club dinnex-.

In addition to taking an important part in the musical given April 27, to celebrate Music Week, they have entertained at a number of civic organizations. MUSIC Boys' Double Trio In close connection with the Boys’ Glee Club is the Boys’ Double Trio. These are the boys who can sing and have tried the hardest. They practiced regularly and have entertained with some very interesting part songs.

Senior Girls’ Double Trio Closely connected with the ideas and principles of the Girls’ Glee Club is the Senior Double Trio. This consists of six girls who appeared to have at least just a little, talent and who were willing to give the time needed to master part songs. They have entertained on several occasions: School Assembly, P. T. A., L. L. Club, Ladies’ Aid, and at the Rotana Club.
