GLEE CLUB I GLEE CLUB n gg WHEN WE SING The Glee Club, under the supervision ot Mrs. Evelyn Peabody, has contrib' uted much enjoyable entertainment to our students and teachers. Members have participated in assembly programs that have been both prepared and unprepared. They showed unusual poise, and were very cooperative, when called upon on the spur ot the moment to sing a few songs, many ot which were unrehearsed. Some of their fine talent Was exhibited in the Christmas production, which actually moved the audience to tears with its beauty. They also participated in the centennial program called The Century of Progress, which was given to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the Board of Education.
