Each must learn the rudiments of her instrument as well as its proper care and be able to do with it the things that she has already learned to do with her voice. Indirectly the mind is given valuable training. Discipline and co-operation are developed, and an opportunity is afforded for the right use of leisure time. Being a member of the beginners, band gives the pupil a deeper pride and loyalty toward her school. The early part of our time is spent in learning to read the music for the various instruments and to transpose to higher or lower keys the music which we have. We progress gradually from simple familiar tunes to more difficult music written for three parts and finally to regular band music from regular band books. Toward the end of the semester we are able to play several selections as a part of an auditorium program. The beginners, band of the first semester was composed of twenty-seven mem- bers all of whom entered the first band at the end of the semester some occupying rather important chairs. Thirty-One

Now in 1929 we have increased this number to sixty-five in the first band and twenty-three in the beginners, band. At this time next year we expect to have one hundred girls belonging. Last May we again won first place in Minnesota in the Junior High School Band Contest. Our greatest honor came last July when we played before a general assembly of the National Education Association at the Minneapolis Auditorium. Two of our former members, Ione Larson and Audrey Walstrom, are now playing in professional orchestras. Many others are looking forward to the time when they can play for profit as well as pleasure. Mrs. Florence Harper is the director. Thirty

A special effort is also made to dis- cover and develop those especially gifted in the art of singing. Those Who deserve special mention along this line are: Earl Warren, Sydney Blicker, Jerome Zipper; man, Bennie Meltzer, Sam Skolnick, Sol Block, Martin Gold. The boys Glee club helped to produce one of the most interesting operettas recently given at Lincoln, namely Fol-De-Rol? The chief roles were sung by Earl Warren, Bennie Meltzer, Richard Seland. The boys gave a most interesting and worth while program for an auditorium period. In helping to produce these Operettas and entertainments, the club serves the child in that it develops his ability to perform and serves the school by giving it a high type of entertainment.
