BOY'S AND GIRL'S GLEE CLUBS The Girl's Glee Club is made up of twenty seven members and the Boy's Glee Club has eighteen members. Both groups contain members from the high school who wish to join and a few from the seventh and eighth grades who are chosen by Mrs. Hoover. Both clubs have been very busy this yeer,The Girl's Glee Club presented a short operetta, nThe Nifty Shoppeg- at the Community Institute. Host of the girls in this operetta were models with a few speaking parts. nt the Spring Festival we offered a religious Easter Play WThe Little Discipleu. Many of our programs have been light, and amusing but this one was an uplifting, entertain- ing religious presentation, which we enjoyed giving as a different type of program. The boys enjoy their forty-five minutes every week and have learned many entertaining songs. Perhaps the most in- terestinp time of the year was our presenting a Minstrel at the Spring Festival. With a few Wdarkiesn, an interlocutor, and the rest of us in the back ground as the chorus, we held the interest of the audience with our jokes Cthat left a few feces radii, our nepro dialect, and our Ncoloredn sonps. We ended the festival with a hilarious note that seemed :to be enjoyed by everyone. The Boy: and Girl Glee Clubs have combined in doing several numbers. This seemed to be enjoyed by both boys and firls and rave us more experience in mixed chorussiub- inf. Uv presented combined numbers at the Christmas Progam and the Sprinp Festival. Mrs.Hoover has organized another new music group, the mixed ensemble, consistinp of sin boys and six pirls. This group has done very well for its first year and presented a few numbers at the Community Institute, Christmas Program, and the Spring Festival. . Last of all is the Girl's Ensemble.

.SPRING FESTIVAL Every year in the spring the Music department presents a program of varied music for our entertainment. This year the program was divided into three parts. The first six grades presented a very colorful oper- etta, Wfeter Rabbitn with many groups singing and perform- ing drills etc, during the acts. As a direct contrast to this performance the Cirl's Glee Club sang the religious work, nThe Little Disciplen. Ending the program was a short and very amusing minstrel presented by the Boy's Glee Club. We aren't sure who enjoyed this minstrel more, the audience or the boys who presented it. The program ended with much laughter and applause climaxing a very successful evening. COMMUNITY PARTIES A new and successful organization this year has been the Conm nity Get-Togethers. The purpose of this organi- zation is to bring about a better understanding between the parents and teachers and to encourage more friendly relation- ships in the entire community. . The president of this undertaking, Mr. Clyde Forry,has worked hard to make these parties profitable. These meet- ings are held the first Monday night of each month with the men and women alternating the task of planning the enter- tainment. Each program is divided into the business session touching any problem or suggestion that may come up concer- ning the community's interest in the school, a short enter- taining.pro5ram, games or some form of reoreetion.'and the serving of refreshments. THE HALLOWEEN PARTY On November 2, a Halloween party was held in the school gym. As we first came to the party there were in- dividual games around the gym for us to play while the rest of the crowd was coming. After everyone had arrived we play- ed stveral group games and then went on a Wtreasure huntn. It was too bad that all of us couldn't have found the trea- sure because it was several delicious candy bars. We re- turned to the school and square danced for awhile and than topped off the evening with some very welcome refreshments. S
