The Cascade LADIES’ CHORUS T HOUGH rather small in number in comparison to that of last year, the Ladies’ Chorus has done exceptionally fine work, and has had some very intensive and beneficial practice. The chorus has sung both secular and religious songs, and has also spent a great deal of time and effort preparing the cantata, “The Christ Child,” which was given by the combined chorus at Christmas and at the Educational Convention. The members of the Chorus wish to extend hearty thanks and appreciation to Mrs. Bush, who is responsible for the success of the group. The College is fortunate in having her again this year as instructor of voice. There are many others who would have enlisted in this group had not conflicting classes prevented. May better cooperation and interest be shown in the student body in making a bigger and better chorus next year! MEN’S CHORUS T HE work in the Men’s Glee Club this year has been especially interesting and delightful for various reasons. The registration has been larger this year, and the meeting has been regular. Because of the regular meeting twice a week and the credit given for Glee Club, the fellows have responded in a very gratifying way. Many who had heretofore sung but little have come to feel with the poet that “music hath charms.” In the regular class in Glee Club there have been about forty men.. From this group a singing team of eleven men has gone out to sing before various groups, such as the Seattle Y. M. C. A., and different churches of Seattle. The group has also given several extended musical programs elsewhere, to the evident inspiration of the listeners. With the Glee Club this year there have been two male quartets. Both have been very busy filling calls all over the city and surrounding territory. The quartets, as well as the Glee Club, have made a specialty of singing Gospel songs. We all have come to feel that there is a distinct ministry of song: our work both in the Glee Club and quartets has been to fulfill that ministry. Page Thirty-five
