Each practices twice a week separately and as a mixed chorus on Fri days. » Special ensembles include a girls’ trio, girls’ sextette, and a group of 12 select mixed voices known as the “Clefs.” These groups are now in training and will be available for school and community programs in the near future. A boys’ quartet will not be organized until a suitable first tenor voice is discovered. Class voice is being offered by Miss Johnson and some private voice training will be done by Mr. Bostow. There is a noticeable absence of participating boys’ voices throughout the Junior and Senior high school and especially in the younger group. The largest instrumental or ganization in the Wolf Point schools is the senior band, with a personnel of 53 members. The band is working under difficulties at the present time due to the fact that many instruments which were sent away for repairs dur ing the summer have not been returned as yet. Some sections are missing entirely and the loss is noticeable. The junior band, composed of students who have instruction for one year or more, is gradually ab sorbed by the senior band as soon as the members show that they can handle the more difficult music. The beginners’ band has 18 members. These students have had no previous instruction but may advance to the junior band when they show that they can read notes well. Each student taking band has two periods of band and one pe riod for a lesson each week.

New uniforms for the senior band were ordered during the summer and are expected to ar rive soon. These new uniforms will add a lot to the appearance and confidence of the band at games, concerts, and at the spring festival. Another division of the instru mental department is the class piano in which 55 students have enrolled. This course is offered to grades four through twelve and many of members are on their second year work. New this year •• a class called Advanced Music. There are eight seniors enrolled for this full credit course in music theory, appreciation, history . and conducting. The Wolf Point high school is endeavoring to set up a program in its music department which will enable every student a chance to participate in the type of music in which he is most interested, with playing or singing experi ence and continued instruction all through the school years. Wholesome musical experience is made available at an early age in order that real talent is de veloped by the time the student reaches senior high school. Responsibility for cultivating interest in music rests with the parents as well as the teachers and cooperation with the school program is a valuable asset, state the instructors. More Funds Are Available to McCone County Farmers Additional funds to aid Mc- Cone county farmers and ranch ers in carrying out approved soil and water conservation practices this fall are available to the Coun ty Agricultural Conservation As sociation. Any farm operator who wants his farm plan should discuss the matter with the county ACA com mittee at once. All practices on which assistance payments are made must have approval of the county committee prior to their performance and must be com pleted by December 31, 1946. Practices which the committee feel can still be satisfactorily carried out this fall include: drainage and irrigation systems, erosion control, clearing of land, and firebreaks. Most range im provement practices can still be carried out but payment for them depends upon satisfactory grazing management having been exer cised on the unit this year, as well as upon prior approval of the county committee.
