Miller. Two debates were held with Bedford a nd Mitchell High Schools each, that year on the question: Resolved, that the principle of the chain store system is detrimental to the best interests of the American public.

This was the first anniversary of the orchestra as a school organization and it was proclaimed by all to have a very good start. By the untiring efforts of Mr. Dropsey, the orches¬ tra became easily capable of entering the District contest held at Rising Sun, April 23. Practically all types of music were used in the orchestra. The lighter waltzes and foxtrots had their place along with the heavier marches and overtures. Every member became warmly enthusiastic and thoroughly enjoyed the work assigned to him. Most of the members were fresh¬ men or sophomores, with a few from grade school who played regularly with the orchestra; so we see a very promising future before us. The program of improvement is being earnestly pursued, and the oncoming years should see further developments.

Student Council The Student Council was organized in Salem High School by Mr. Brooks in the year 1922-’23. Each class elects one member; three pupils from the Junior and Senior class are elected at large by the student body. The purpose of the council is to give the students of Salem High School a part in deciding and changing school matters. Meetings are held bi-weekly the seventh hour in the day. Some of the most outstanding rules made are: each class may have four social functions each year; all school offices are classified into major and minor, a maximum number set for each student to hold; Salem High School shall have a Freshmen Day; definite rules were made awarding the letter “JS”; the school shall have a cleanup committee to keep school grounds neat and orderly. An interesting essay contest was held during the school year 1930-’31 in connection with the last in which Floyd Neeriemer, Belle Boling, and Faith Kelly were winners.
