THE GLEE CLUB
The monthly meeting of the Glee
Club was held December 3, 1910.
The Glee Club and history classes
would like to buy a radio so they
may listen to enlightening programs
for both classes. AS no definite de-
cision was reached, the Club will dis
cuss this further at the next meeting.
Again this year the S. H. H. S.
Glee Club will go caroling Christ
mas. The hour to sing has been I'M
decided.
The Glee Club will have a most en-
joyable Christmas this year. Beside
caroling, the members are going to
fill baskets and stockings and distri-
butte them Christmas.
The program chairman was Rose
mary Corddry. The Glee Club open
ed the program by singing "Drink
To Me Only" Following that Irma
Adkins told the story Of "Last Rose
of Summer" and then sang it very

famous by his opera Carmen. The
opera Carmen was told by Rosemary
Corddry. Again this month there
was a quiz, the contestants being
Glee Club members. Howard Taylor

evening the meeting was adjourned.
THE VALUE OF THE REPORT
CARD
On Wednesday of last week the pu-
pills of Snow Hill High School receiv-
ed their report cards for the second
time. Many of the students were
glad to receive their report cards for
they had been working hard. AS
their reward for working hard, their
names were among those on the hon
or roll. Others who had not worked
hard received report cards covered
with red ink.
Reports are given out to encourage
the pupils, not to discourage them.
When people receive their report
cards and they have bad marks, some
give up hope and become discourage
ed. This isn't the thing to do. They
should work harder and tell them
selves that they can get good marks
if other students Of the class can.
Those that get good marks should
still keep on working for it is always
possible to do better.
The report card should also be of
great Importance to the parents.
They can see how their children are
doing in their work, and encourage
them to do their best.
However, many parents don't even
look at their child's report card,
while others take great interest and
try in every way possible to help the
child improve his marks the following
term.
If parents, teachers, and pupils
will work together in class harmony,
