THE GIRLS, BAND The Girls Band was organized in April, 1924, with twenty-seven members. So far as we know this is the only girlsi band in any junior high school. A second band has since been organized so that girls may be ready to fill the places of those Who finish junior high school. During the past year the band has played at the following places: Donaldson's Tea Rooms, Jefferson Junior High School, Music Auditorium of University of Minnesota. Nicollet Hotel, Lake Harriet, Minnehaha Park, and for radio WAMD. Several members of the original band have deiinitely decided to become professional musicians, of whom we men- tion Mary Berman, cornet; Fern Aalbu, clarinet: and Ionc Larson, sarrusophone. In competition with the Junior High School bands of the 13th District of Which Minneapolis is a part, our band won first place. This contest took place on Friday. May 6, 1927. There were no other Junior High bands in the state to enter the contest, therefore our band has first place in the state DL contest. Mrs. Florence Harper is the director.

THE ORCHESTRA Music is the universal language through Which all people may communicate. In our orchestra the bass tuba, the comet, the clarinet, even down to the tiny piccolo, furnish their part in serving one of Lincolnis chief activities. Our orchestra consists of eighty-two mem- ORCHE STRA bers and from these about forty or hfty are L Jl H H J chosen to play on special occasions. The midwinter and spring festivals gave ample work for the members and besides this work they have also given entertainment to the children and teachers during auditorium periods and to our parents at the P. T. A. meetings. Under the careful supervision of Mr. Lewis and Mrs. Harper, the leader, the orchestra has flourished, and it is gratifying to know that many of the members plan to continue their musical education and make music their voe cation.

BOYSi GLEE CLUB e With all their heart and soul our tenors and basses harmoniously raised their voices and helped produce two of the stage successes of the school year, namely, Nearly a Honeymooni' and uThe Love Pirates of Hawaii. The mainyroles were sung by the two best tenors in Lincoln, name- ly: Arne Riekke and Charles Epstein. Besides these operettas, the boys have sung for the school at auditorium periods. To broaden the held of music at Lincoln Junior High is one of the greatest aims of this club. A special effort is made to discover and help develop talent in the line of singing. Seven such discoveries have been made this year, they are: Arne Riekke, Charles Epstein, Bennie Meltzer, Solomon Fisher, Arnold Greenberg, Sol Lipkin, and Bertram Thornton. Mrs. Moseley is the leader of the Glee Club.
