Here’s an oldie, but goodie from long ago, in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. Enjoy. – Laurie Davis
It has only been in the last two or three years that there has been much interest in musical organizations, but in that time they have grown into strong and able bodies. Among the foremost is the Girls’ Glee Club, which has shown excellent results because of the persistent and faithful work of Misses Davis and Belt.
The origin of the Glee Club is not known, but some people think they are working on the idea that “music has charms to soothe the savage breast,” but the members themselves insist that it is merely an outlet for their musical souls.
During the past year, the Glee Club has sung at the Teacher’s Institute, the Woman’s Reading Club, the Annual Presbytery, Park School, and the reception to Bishop Williams.
The members are as follows: First sopranos, Opal Clarke, Dorothy Fleming, Miriam Bartlett, Jessie Tapert; second sopranos, Margaret Wirt, Edith Bowen; first altos, Earnestine Gunn, Jane Ferguson, Elizabeth Parsille; second altos, Boadicea Price, Ruth Weston, Allene Stanley, Lucille Crockett; accompanist, Helen Blain.
