In awe she told us that she had seen gargoyles perched on medieval buildings, but she had never seen any walking around the halls of a school. When we asked her what she was doing so early in the morning, she explained to us that she has an art class the first two periods in room M. She invited us in and said we could look around. Students were working on posters for the Red Cross contest, vocal concert, and operetta. Mrs. Emery said these are only a few of their art projects for the year. The class also presented a program for chapel, reviewing their work for the year. We were pleased with what we found in the art room and also in the music rooms, which we visited later. These subjects are required in the seventh grade and are elective in other years. A few students are talented enough to make music or art a life work, while others will fill many happy leisure hours painting, drawing, sing- ing, or playing a musical instrument with a civic or neighborhood group. Even if the student finds he has no creative talent, he has a cultural background from music and art courses which enables him to appreciate and enjoy the genius of others. Many S. H. S. graduates will find their adult life richer and happier because they have developed interesting hobbies in high school fine arts courses.
