The Webb School honor system was begun soon after the school was founded in 1870 and has been used as a model in establishing similar systems at schools and colleges throughout the country. The members of this group are elected by their fellow classmates and are held in high esteem by the entire student body. For this reason these boys not only set the standard of honor at school but their influence is greatly responsible for the continuance of the reputation for honesty which Webb graduates now hold.

The Webb Octet is a traditional singing group of musically inclined boys which for years has been delighting the school and its surrounding with the high quality of its choral productions. Under the expert direction of its sponsor, Mrs. Emma Rosen- berg, it has offered its audiences many varied pro- grams, featuring both secular and religious music. It is interesting to note that this year's Octet numbers fully thirteen voices, perhaps this is an in- dication of the surplus of musically talented boys at Webb. During the year, several chapel programs are given as a joint presentation by the Octet and the Band. In addition to these, there is the program of Christmas carols presented each year with the coming of the yuletide season. The Octet has been called on at Thanksgiving. Christmas, and Easter to provide music for the sea- sonal religious services, and it has always responded with hymns fitting to the occasion. Along with the afore-mentioned school functions, the group also has made outside appearances. In March the Octet and Band gave a joint chapel concert at the Bell Buckle High School.

Page 56 One of the small, but certainly not unheard of organizations of Webb is the band. Under the di- rection of Mrs. Emma Rosenberg, these masters of sharps and flats have made numerous trips to different civic clubs and schools, within a radius of about fifty miles of the school, providing them with entertain- ment ranging from Romberg's Classics to the bluest blues Basin Street has to offer. The Webb Band generally gives four concerts for the student body during the school year, and has traditionally performed at the Mid-Term Debates and dvring the various exercises at Commencement. The members of the band use their own time after school to practiceg they have been faithful and have done a good job. The student body gives a hardy hand to its music makers. . tu -,-.uas .QR Ava .
