zens on the side lines felt the urge
to shout with pride and to share the
ecstasy of the young people.
One of the most successful of all
years in the history Of Gallatin is
celebrated by this grand finale of
Jubilee day, giving praise to high
scholastic standards and to honors
won in athletic contests. in music,
o~ratOry and dramatic art.
Brilliant color and clever symbol
ism in floats made comical trimming
for the underlying strain of school
loyalty and devotion, which will make
Jubilee day an annual event.
A group of cowboys led the par
ade. They were followed by six boys
carrying a huge "Gallatin" banner in
red and black. Then came the Gal
latin band, uniformed in white, with
red and black sashes and red tam-o'-
shanter caps. The music rendered by
the band stirred all pulses to rhyth.
