This tour is the first of a series
the Glee Club is planning to make
through the state. The tours are
being for four distinctive motives:
Q) to show what any community can
do in choral music if it puts it's mind
to it; (2) to show that excellent
stage effects may be obtained by the
use of inexpensive materials; (3) to
interest the young people of the state
in higher education; and (4) to ac-
quaint high school students and their
parents with some of the advantages
of the Northern Arizona Normal
School.
With these in mind, an excellent
program was worked out, consisting
of violin and vocal solos, choruses,
dances, and a short play. Mr.. Rid
gely and Arlis Miller were the violin
soloists, and Edna Saunders, Eliza
beth McNelly, Catherine McMullen,
Clara Johnson, vocal soIOists. In the
solos were included a group of In
dian Mountain songs and Spanish
songs. The choruses were many and
varied, consisting of Negro and Or
iental Love songs. The most import
ant was "The Snow, a chorus which
portrays perfectly Flagstaff's winter
weather. The dances, coached by
Mrs. Drake and Ida Davis, were de-
lightful and original number in both
clog and aesthetic dancing, and were
given by Eleanore Greenlaw, Lucre-
tia McMullen and Catherine Beck
with.
Miss Dewey, director of the play,
produced some original and elabor
ate costumes, scenery and curtains
for it and the choruses. The Ukelele
Club also gave numbers.
The management of the trip was
put into the capable hands of Mr..
McMulIen and Mr.. Hollar took charge
of the properties.
