But much Of this will become
vague and even forgotten If the
mementoes and documents are
not preserved. Pictures. docu.
ments, old instruments. are all
interesting and valuable because
they make real the things Of the

A plan is being made whereby
all of these things may be pre-.

will be valued and appreciated.

Organization of the High
School Music Forces

Much interest has been arous.
ed in the High School recently
by the organization of our High
School music forces into three
units, a girls glee club. a boys
glee club. and a class in theory
and appreciation of music. The
boys meet on Monday, the girls
on Wednesday and the class on
Friday, with Miss Crisp as direc.
tor. The combined forces of the
two glee clubs will do chorus
work at times throughout the
spring term.
The membership of these or.
CARNATIONS was placed upon q
voluntary basis, and the fact that
we are interested in music was
proved when seventy were en-.
rolled as members in the class in
theory and appreciation. The
boys glee club numbers eighteen
members, the girls fifty.
We are at work now on music
for our program to be given on
High School Festival Night, dur.
ing the National Week of Song,
February 2l-27.
We believe that even the mock.
ing birds on the school grounds
will soon be "do-re.mi.ing," 80
often do they hear such sounds
from US, for the sentiment of the
High School is strong flor every.
thing that means music.

now under way, aud indications are
that the Womans Auxiliary will

r. c. Murray of Houston, president
of the state auxiliary, has started an
organization tour, which will en-
brace twenty-three or more Texas
cities. and considerable interest has
been arounsed in al parts OF the
state.
A committee report adopted at the

Records of the local postoiiice
show that the number OF residents
regularly and systematically invest
ing in Government Savings Securities
which are issued by the United states
Treasury Department to encourage
saving and make the saving Of money
in large or small amounts convenient
and safe, Is increasing from month
to month.
Especially attractive locally are
the two brand-new securities of 1871
which are the 81 Treasury Savings
stamp and the s25 ((register-d)

500 (registerod) Treasury Savings
Certificate" said Postmaster r. b.
Barnes.
"The 81 Treasury Savings stamp,
used to save money in dollar amounts
with a few pennies, Is eXchangeaDle
for a SIS interest-bearing Government
Saving Stamp when Four OF them are
affixed to a Treasury Savings Card.
Twenty of them and a few cents can
be exchanged for the attractive $50
(registered) Treasury Savings Certi-
ficate. or one can use them to build
for a 800 (registered) Treasury Saw

buying their s25 and 800 SCertifi-
Gates outright"
These securities bear compound in
