The Club intends to become more active socially than it has been in the past. A design in red and gold has been adopted for the Club pin, and the pins themselves will be procured soon. The membership has been increased considerably during the past term, the active members at the present time numbering about twenty. It is expected that the Club will take in many candidates soon. All indi- cations point to a new term just as successful as the last. Music Notes The High School Orchestra is about to close a successful year. The few but excellent rehearsals promise a very artistic annual concert, which is to take place during the middle of the coming term. Practically all school instruments have been issued out to students, who intend to take up the study of the particular instrument they have chosen. In fact some of the people have learned to play their instrument well enough to enter the orchestra the coming semester. The officers are: Stanley Ed.

Not many people in the school seem to know that this Club is one of the best equipped in the state, and the members intend to make this tact know. 18
