Wednesday, May 6 we are having our annual, local school exhibit at which time work of each of the grades and from practically all departments of the High school will be on display. The exhibit is being planned so as to give you some idea of the quality of work that is being done throughout the year. For that reason, samples of work from actual class room work will be displayed. The buildings will be open to the public, both in the afternoon and evening. In the evening the P. T. A. will hold their regular May meeting, which consists of a short business meeting and a short program of 30 or 45 minutes, after which the rooms will all be open for your inspection. The teachers will be in their rooms to talk over any matters you might which to discuss in regard to their work. The best of the exhibit work will be taken to the state fair this fall. We have always made a good showing there, taking 1st prize for consolidated school exhibits for the past two years.
Much improvement has been made in the library due to the classification of the books which has just been completed by Mr. Cope, Miss Breeden and Miss Day.

In preparation for a profitable year of music next year, a girls’ sextet has been organized and will practice during the summer under the direction of Mr. Keeney. The members of the sextet are: Alice Haas, Geraldine Keagle, Doris Neale, Thelma Evans, Helen Stevens and Gwendolyn Carver.
