1921 Cedrus Yearbook

1921 GLEE CLUB CAS ( HE Cedarville College Glee Club came into being Thursday eve- ning, October 14, 1920. Miss Mary Goode Royal, of Dayton,Ohio the Professor of Vocal Music in the College, was leader, and Miss Helen Oglesbee was secured as accompanist. A large group of enthusiastic students assembled in Philosophic Hall, and practicing began in earnest. Meetings were held regularly for an hour on Thursday eve- nings. Part of the time was devoted to separate chorus work and the remainder to the training of the mixed chorus. We made our debut at Ross Township at the Farmers' Institute, Monday, January 24th, when we gave four numbers at the evening meeting. Our singing was compared to that of angel voices, so we know our efforts were appreciated. We had hoped to give a concert this Spring but due to the rush of the Spring sem- ester, it was decided to omit it this year. We hope the Glee Club is not a thing of the past, and that we may have renewed interest and enthusiasm next Fall.) M. L. H. 63
