TREBLE CLEF OFFERS VALUABLE TRAINING The Treble Clef is an honorary musical organization composed of thirty-six girls from any of the four classes in high school. To become a member, the girl must pass successfully a voice test given to her by the in- structor in the presence of al judging committee composed of four members of the organization. She must be faithful in attending all rehearsals. This society has been active since its organization in 1913 by Miss Emily Maloney Whose Work was carried on by Miss Mabel Mest. It owes its success to the untiring efforts of both Mrs. Abbie Eixelby who instructed the group faithfully for nine years, and to Miss Olga Hlavas who has coached the group for the years 1935-36.
