THE GLEE CLUB AVING hired a music instructor, the next step toward organizing a g'ee club was to find the periods which would be free for music for Lg 4, the greatest number of students. The third period on Blondays and NVednesdays was finally chosen and thereupon began our history. At first music consisted of a stack of books containing simple songs for beginners, but lllr. Rose rapidly advanced us to real glee club music. YVe are very grateful to Mrs. Rose for her willingness to accompany us. XVe realize that her help was indispensable to our progress. Uur only regret is for the dollars and dollars worth of chewing gum of which she deprived us. Uur glee club to the members has proved to be very interesting-we keep wondering who will be the next victim to leave the gymnasium, red with t'Ill- barrassment. Ifoolishness aside, in our more serious moods we realize the value of our music, we try to work hard, and we are all very grateful to those who have made our work possible. W ... A MUSICAL EVENING A concert in the High School Auditorium on April O introduced the Semi- nary Band and Glee Club to the public. Under the direction of Mr. and Hrs. Raymond Rose, these departments produced a musical entertainment of which we are all proud. 'lihe program consisted of a group of lively selections by the band. several a cappella numbers by the entire glee club, a rollicking sea chantey for the boys' chorus and an appropriate number for the girls' chorus, selections by the girls' county championship double trio, and also a group of accompanied numbers sung by the entire Glee Club. hflrs. Rose graciously' sang a solo.

THE BAND ', ROIXI humble beginning our band has grown to a good-sized organ- ilition producing lusty rev erbcrations in our Q.fXll1IllNllllH lhe mem vpn' .iii 5. it illii ii i ii. 'Q - l 1 bers of the band have been working diligently to produce an organiza- tion of which we can be proud. As their part of the musical concert on April sixth the band rendered many fine selections which Were approved by the audi- ence. The band also supplied the overture and entertainment between the acts on the evening of the Senior play. At the present time an orchestra is being formed by hir. Rose. lt has not been developed enough to make a public appparance but it will soon be able to acquit itself as well as our other two musical organizations. The value of good musical organizations to the school and community can- not be overestimated. There is no single branch of endeavor which can do so much to produce a cooperative spirit within a school or community. hlusic is a power in creating better fellowship and as such should be encouraged. But beyond these considerations, in these days With time of leisure for the individual, the value of a good musical training, vocal or instrumental, is incalculable. The person who has studied music has gained an appreciation of the work of masters which will be ai joy throughout life. Those who can play or sing have an ad- ditional talent with which to provide entertainment in the form of group singing at family gatherings or with groups of friends similarly trained. The various studies which are presented in high school might well be ac- cepted by the pupils as aids in providing additional equipment for the enjoyment of life in addition to the practical value. A serous study of history provides a background for the enjoyment of a study of politics and reading of current his- torical accounts or historical novels during hours of leisure. The study of lan- guages makes the reading of good literature a pleasure, while the study of the If,'orlllnllrJ on ping: .l-lj
