The High School Band started two years ago. At the present time there are twenty-nine members. They have rehearsals every Wednesday and Thursday night after school. The boys are well trained under the leadership of Mr. O’Neil.


By the way, the girls must be too bashful to be directed by O’Neil because it is entirely a boys’ band. They made their first appearance in public Dec. 15 at the opera house, the occasion being “A Pair of Sixes”.

EXECUTIVE COUNCIL

 

The Executive Council was reorganized again this year. The council is composed of the principal, the presidents of the four classes, two representatives each from the Junior and Senior classes and one each from the Sophomore and Freshmen classes. The representatives were elected by the members of their classes, and four members of the faculty, were chosen by the faculty.

 

The Council, again, awards special honor pins to one Senior girl and one Senior boy.


The purpose of this organization is to give the student body a voice in deter mining the standards which should be obtained for participation in extra-curricular activities, and determines the credit which should be given for such participation.

The Hi-Y is a boys’ organization in high school which has as its motto and purpose “to create, maintain and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community”. The name, “Hi-Y”, is coined from the affiliation of High School and Y. M. C. A. Membership is limited to the three upper classes in High School.

 

Chief among Hi-Y activities in the past was a Father and Son banquet, held at the Presbyterian church parlor in March, and sponsored by the Hi-Y for the whole community.

The club was reorganized this year by the Commerical students with Miss Taborsky as director.

 

The purpose of the club is to promote a greater interest in typewriting and shorthand.

 

Meetings were held twice a month. A short program was held at each meeting and was followed by discussions on business and commercial work.

 

At Christmas the “K. K. K.’s” and the Latin students held a party.

 

The Commerical students hope this club will continue with as great enthusiasm and success as they have made it.

Seek Beauty

Give Service

Pursue Knowledge

Hold to Health

Glorify work

Be Happy

 

Be Trustworthy

 

During the Christmas season we sang carols to shut-ins.
