THE FULAMBEAU THE GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB By DOROTHY STANGEL “The Girls’ Glee Club will reorganize to-night at 3:45. All who wish to join meet in the Main Assembly. Miss Koss.’’ About eighty- six girls were present, but unfortunately, the Glee Club can have no more than about forty members. The members from the year before, naturally, got first chance to join the club, and thus some had to be excluded. The purpose of this club, as you may rightly guess from the word glee which fills everybody with inexpressible joy, and also adequately presents the foundation or rock of this society, is to create a cheerful- ness and a voice training such as will have good effect on all people. The beauty of harmony is expressed in its finest forms. And the best part of the club, no, not the best, but one that is very prominent, is that it is called upon to participate in the programs that take place during the year. Since then, the club has proved successful in all that it has done. It has taken part in all activities of the school. Besides this, it has helped to make other entertainments a success. Hildegarde Johnson, the president, whose very keen sense of humor is an asset alone, presides at the meetings. Augusta, the Sec- retary and Treasurer, whose goggles make her look wise, reads the minutes and roll-call. Margaret Stangel , the trustworthy librarian, must not be forgotten for her faithfulness. But most of all to Miss Koss, who is the director, we owe our prominence and success. Miss Jones will complete the work that Miss Koss has begun.

THE FLAMBEAU THE BOYS’ GLEE CLUB By HOWARD DUMMER ’21 Have you ever heard strange sounds issuing from the Main Assembly on a Wednesday evening? You perhaps wondered what it was all about. Well, it was the wonderful voices of the members of the Boys’ Glee Club of the M. H. S. The Boys’ Glee Club was organized at the beginning of the year by Miss Koss, the director of music. About fifteen boys responded to the first call. One or two boys joined our ranks every week. At the present time we have more than thirty boys on our list. Although they do not all attend regularly, there are always enough loyal ‘‘canary birds”’ there to start something. An opportunity was given to the pupils to hear several members of the club. Four members were chosen from the club to sing a song or two at the Christmas program given at this school. We expect to carry on our work next year on a bigger scale. So, come on boys; let’s show the girls we can get just as many members as they can, and make more noise. Join our ranks next year. You Seniors to be, joi our ranks. Don’t be bashful or be like the senior boys of this year. They haven’t a single member of their class on our list. The membership of the club is open to all boys of the high school, because we know they all can sing.
