Singing has been resumed at the
high school under the leadership OF
e. L. Philbrook Yesterday was the
first time fer this year. The delay
was because of the new music as it
was decided not to use the old song
books any more. Hereafter sheet
music will be used and special atten-
ton given to the different parts. To
make this easier the students were
divided into sections according To
their voices.
