GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girls' Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Roush, consisted of twenty-six members. This year, as well as the last two years, our Girls' Glee Club was considered very good in comparison with the other schools of our size in the State. The girls competed in the district choral contest held at Bluffton on March 15. The numbers which the chorus sang were: nKye Song of Saint Brideu by Clokey: and 'A Prayern by Beethoven. The girls received a superior rating and were entitled to compete in the State contest held on April 19, in Columbus, on the campus of Ohio State University. The girls received an excellent rat- ing and ranked third in the State. MIXED CHORUS The Mixed Chorus, consisting of thirty-five members, made its first appearance at the Presbyterian Church, on October 13, under the able direction of our fine new music instructor, Mr. Roush. . The most cherished event of the year was the district contest at Bluffton, on March 15. Although the group did not win first rating, it is not to be denied that they did very well. The numbers which were sung at the contest were: UDancing and Springingn Clequired numberj by I-Iassley, and the negro spiritual, Go Down Moses Cselect- ed numberj. Other appearances were made at the dedication of the new gym- nasium, in the music concert, and at baccalaureate. This year was very prosperous and enjoyable to all the members.
