At the first meeting, to start things rolling, Chuck Stocker was appointed head of a Home- coming that proved to be most successful. To help him, he had on his committee Nancy Me- dema and Mike Bell.

THEY ARE The Encyclopedia Americana gives us a rath- er formal definition of music as the art of sounds or the science of combining tones. Yet music, to most of us, is more than an art or a science. As small children we are soothed to sleep with a baby's lullaby. As youngsters we learn the rounds and the folk songs and as adults, music becomes even more impor- tant. There is a further kinship between music and living, for our social relationships need the harmony that is a requirement of music. I happen to know a young fellow who is never quite happy or satisfied. Seldom does he speak without losing the beat or hitting a clinker. Though none of us will admit that we ever reach this state, we all know people who do. His home is not as he would have it. His parents are too strict. The shirts that his mother buys for him are not the kind that he likes. The teachers seldom give him the breaks. The portions of food in the cafeteria are too small if it is something that he likes and too large if he doesn't. His friends are sometimes stuck up and often conceited, and people in general do not appreciate his ability or realize his worth. I often think how much happier he and the people around him would be if he would rec- ognize that everything and everybody cannot always be out of step and off pitch. There are a lot of fine people and things in the world. It costs little and sometimes profits a great deal occasionally to go out of our way to acknowledge this fact. Mr. Moore. PAGE SIX One of the cardinal principles of education is the worthy use of leisure time. In these days of increased mechanical efficiency we have more and more leisure time. As a result, this cardinal principle becomes increasingly important. Throughout your years at Snohomish High you have been given the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities. It is our sincere hope that the interest and enioyment from some of these activities will carry over into adult life. Music is surely an activity having carry-over value providing for worthy use of your leisure time in years to come. We are indeed fortunate to have such a fine music department. Over the years our choral and instrumental groups have established en- viable reputations. Our marching band has taken honors throughout the state and in Brit- ish Columbia. Over 33 per cent of our stu- dents actively participate in our present pro- gram and IOO per cent of us enjoy it. It is fitting that such an activity should be properly housed. Next fall we will have a beautiful building for this group, thanks to the generous support of our own and the non-high districts who send students to Sno- homish. In years to come I am sure that many of your pleasant memories of high school and perhaps some of your enioyment in adult life will come from your participation as a per- former in or as an observer of our fine music program. Good luck to you in the years to come. Harold B. Moe.
