' Tl a -we 'fs S .4 1 X x VISITING THE CHUCK WAGON After a busy morning of touring the circus grounds, we shall stop at the lunch wagon where, daily, ive shall find our faithful chefs preparing the delectable dishes we enjoy so much. Chef Iiilkins, the main hash-slinger. en- joys the efficient help of some of the students who work each day at a scheduled time. There they are, scurrying around, some at the window taking the trays, and putting them in the racks to go into the dishwasher. For their serve ices they receive their lunch plus their weekly check. Ah yes, we're ordering chicken and gravy on biscuits, the mixing done by those wonderful gals, Jeanette, Curly, and Jonesie. As we go along the line, and get our trays filled, we find the cashier. ready with a welcoming smile, and an outstretched hand. After we take a seat in the spacious cafeteria, and have eaten a filling meal, we shall go on to tour the rest of the circus grounds. TICKLING THE IVORIES 4 ' l kg f' Mrs. Conley, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Filkins. Absent: Mrs. Giovanni, Substitute: Mrs. Allen. It has always been a well-known fact that the students of our school are very music minded. .X desire to play in the band has always been strong and membership in the choir has usually run from fifty to sixty. ln many cases, background knowledge of music has come from taking piano lessons. Jiri Bauer, Miss Sheldon, Mrs. Smith and several teachers from Aubum have pupils in our SC 00 . Mr. Bauer of Spring Lake and Miss Sheldon of XVeedsport teach in their homes, while Mrs. Smith has her students here in school. Each spring most of the piano teachers have recitals given by their u ils These ,s. nl 'u1l, ...if P P - events are usually well attended, as many proud parents, friends and just interested people like to hear these enthusiastic young musicians. Several years ago Mr. Bauer had the novel idea of starting a rhythm class. His students perform on just basic rhythm instruments. They have become quite adept at this and the group is most enjoyable to hear. Miss Sheldon and Mrs. Smith have pupils well enough advanced in music to perform at an annual recital given at the Cayuga Museum in Aubum. Both teachers send many of their students to participate in spring festivals where they receive ratings and criticisms concerning their playing. VVe should be very glad that we have students in our school who are interested enough in music to spend time and effort on piano lessons. Z
