glee em I-IE Glee Club, a semi-business organiza- tion, is one of our newer intracurricular activi- ties which was worked into our schedule this year for the Hrst time. It was organized in the latter part of September, and its officers were elected as follows: Dick Broadclus, presi- dentg Ernestine Stultz, secretary-treasurer, and Curtis Givens, business manager. The School Board secured the services of Miss Dorothy Devans who instructed the Club twice weekly or more often. In spite of the handicap of inexperience and the problems presented by such a large number, marked progress was made from the very beginning. This organization provided a knowledge of music, as well as pleasure and entertainment, which will be very valuable to those who were fortunate enough to be in the group this year. 4 The Glee Club was composed of approxi- mately seventy-five boys and girls. On special occasions, Miss Devans divided this group into boys' and girls' divisions which furnished music for several of the school programs Miss Doizorm' DEVANS throughout the year. We realize that in the years to come, this activity will develop more and more toward the purpose of giving musical training within our school. X ' ' 'Y - - -1 D. Alexander D.

Jlameg ' UST, like' home-thats our I-Iome Eco- nomics Cottage with its fifty-two busy house- keepers who sew, clean and cook under the supervision of Miss Fannie Slate. In addition to our regular course, we were fortunate to have training in the care of the skin, personal appearance, cosmetics, and the planning of the wardrobe. Our schedule this year has been quite full-during football season, we sold drinks and peanuts-proceeds were used to buy things for the cottage-then Christmas came, the spirit was actually oozing from us. We had a party and gifts were exchanged, the Senior Club entertained Mrs. Reades class at a party and the third-year girls played Santa Claus by giving a bed-cover to the junior- I-ligh teachers' rest room. After the holidays, we settled down again and came through the winter with Fly- ing colors. Naturally, as spring was here, there were many plans and projects to be made.

Cardwell With high hopes, we decided to have teas to entertain our parents and friendsg drapes had to be madeg the rooms had to be rearranged and child care was to be studied. The third- year group planned to take -yard decoration. And why do we always save compliments until last? The officers were greatly responsible for the success of the clubs which we organized this year. The junior Club chose Evelyn Crouch as president, and if she was away Clara Prillaman, vice president, carried on. Adell Prilliman kept the records and collected the dough, The officers of the Senior Club were Edith Campbell, president, and Ruby Cardwell, vice president. Virginia Joyce had the big job of keeping records and receiving money-it was really a job, too, for there were a million places for our money to go before it was even collected. The smell of rising rolls and the hum of the sewing machines have characterized our year of '40-'4l.
