B Sunbeams in a Winter day are what the Eighth Grade and Freshman Junior Library Club members proved to be this year. The club was organ- ized in January to interest pupils in the library. The members were taught the work that has to be done in the library and later they helped to relieve the librarian and Senior Library Club members of many duties. Next year these boys and girls will become Senior Library Club members.

Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind, for the Oakfield-Alabama Central School band doesn't care how hard the wind blows as long as it is wami in the auditorium. The band a peared at the Farmers' Roundup, foot- ball games, Christmas Candlelight Service, New York State Schoolj for the Blind, County Music Festival at Corfu on May fourth and fifth, Memorial Day Parade, and Class Night. Some numbers the band has layed during the year are Drum Major Special, Rustic Dance, Gershwin Selections, Copa Cabana, Waltz King, and Poet and Peasant. A group of selected band members also played at the Cole Circus held in the O.A.C.S. Gym, from which we also received half of the profit. The Snow White Overture is one number you'll never hear pla ed by this band, as it is a little out of the line of music they lay. Their first public appearance was at the Oracle Staff play, The Bees and the Flowers. They aliso were asked to participate in a P.T.A. meetin and attended a freshman arty. Though this band is newly organized, it has accomplished much ann? will continue to become better known, not only to the students o O.A.C.S., but to parents as well. .IU IUH BA ll S I G Il Back Raw: J.
