MUSIC DEPARTMENT Our music department is composed of the girls' glee, boys' glee, mixed chorus, band, and orchestra. The band has been very active during the basketball sea- son, playing for every home game. The mixed chorus is made up of sixtv-nine members. ' Before Christmas, a large number of the mixed chorus gave a play Why the Chimes Rang . An ad- g mission of 10C was charged each one and the proceeds Efthtl' Bm'kl Y A.B. Butler were used to buy music material for the different or- ganizations. The band is verv conspicuous this year, since each band member has purchased blue shirts and gold ties. The band and orchestra, as well as the glee club, have added new members since the beginning of this semester. Miss Barkley, the music instructor, has donated a great deal of her time to the different departments and has had splendid results. The mixed chorus is planning to give an operetta, but as vet they have not definitely decided what it will be. Due to the vacation, the operetta will be given later in the spring. They a1'e also working on a musical re- view which vvill be presented at the gymnasium around the last of March. Puffs' fzrwnfy-foilr

CLUBS PHSTORY OF THE SJNSHINE CLUB The first Sunshine Work in Indiana began at Crawfordsville in 1900. A group of high school girls there became interested in doing some Chris- tian work to cheer the shut-ins, old people, and needy children. Therefore, they organized the first Sunshine Club. The plan was presented to all girls of this school and to other schools. Since this time 139 chapters of Sunshine Clubs have been organized in Indiana to help spread sunshine and cheer everywhere. In 1921 it was decided to hold an annual state convention, which has been observed every year since then. These conventions are very successful and helpful to girls. In the fall of 1928 the Sunshine Club was brought into Mitchell High School. Miss Mary Crawford and Mrs. Wilma Newman were leaders in securing the club. The presidents of our Club have been' 1928-29 Margaret Laughlin 1929-30 Millicent Mayden 1930-31 Nancy Robertson 1931-32 Martha Bryan 1932-33 Maxine Conkey 1933-34 Letty Shaw 1934-35 Alma Corbin 1935-36 Roanna Porter 1936-37 Anna Sanders Officers for 1937-38 are: President Mary Ellen Pelizzari Vice-President Freida Sanders Secretary Velma Cox The purpose of the Sunshine Club in Mitchell High School is to make every girl feel that she has a part in something at school Each girl in the School has become a member of the club, and it has been growing evei since it was organized. HI-Y CLUB This year's Hi-Y club, though handicapped by lack of time for regular meetings, was active and progressed under the leadership and direction of the able President, Hugh Miller and Sponsor, Mr. Bishop. The Mitchell Club is affiliated with the Hi-Y nation-wide organiza- tion, a branch of the great Y. M. C. A. organization. A Hi-Y club was first organized in Mitchell High in 1922 but after a short while, ceased to exist, until revived in 1931. It has been active since. The club has several varied activities during the year, besides the meetings. Among these have been the following: A Halloween party was held in October. Early in December the club met with the Rotary Club in a joint meeting with the boys of the High School as guests. The Rotary Club provided the speaker-A. L. Trester of the IHSAA-and the Hi-Y Club furnished a meal for the men. The Club sponsored a pep campaign for boosting the team. At this writing, plans are being made for other activities, among them being an entertainment to provide funds to help pay for the floor covering for the gym. We are also contemplating the Hi-Y trip to some point of interest. In all, the club has had a good year, and we hope that the club may continue to prosper in the future. Page twenty-six
