present Grande` students are not crippled under such terrifying conditions. Miss Forest and others pledged to do their utmost to keep crime at its lowest level.

Miss Forest found teaching to be a joy! But this ecstasy only lasted one year. Late in the 1953-54 school years, headmasters from other areas in Grande` requested the inclusion of Music Education to their curriculum for the next term (1954-55); hinting favoritism was shown to Poole’s schools. After all, they reasoned, Poole was the District Supervisor’s home. But contrary to their reasoning the budget did not allow funds for such an increase; therefore, Music Education was deleted from Pool’s curriculum. Miss Forest was transferred to Laketown High School in the town of Fishnet. Her assignment was: teacher – Chorus and History (Grande`).
Would work at Laketown be as pleasurable as it was in Poole? Two differences between these areas are apparent when compared: The town of Fishnet is larger and is nearer to Miss Forest’s home. Will these differences be advantageous? Miss Forest was optimistic, but somewhat nervous.
On opening day of school the headmaster introduced the teachers to the student body. Each faculty member was respectfully acknowledged by the students. Early in the year Laketown was found to be typical of the other public schools of Grande`: the administrators, the faculty, the students and other personnel intermingled harmoniously with the community. Miss Forest and other faculty members were known for good performance in the classroom. Sometimes the workload was challenging and demanding, but never overwhelming. The chorus was distinct. Included in the repertoire were choral arrangements from the simple to the advanced. Co-workers, whose classrooms were located in the vicinity of the choral classroom, would often complement Miss Forest and her students on the beautiful choral performance. Their kind acknowledgement was stimulating, motivating other students to enroll.
Two concerts were presented each term; the first one was presented before Christmas break, the second in late spring-prior to graduation exercises. In addition to these standard performances, other functions sponsored by school and community organizations included selections performed by the chorus delighting their listeners. A memorable appearance on local TV brought the following notes, highlighting the consensus of the area:
“I want to congratulate you on your TV program Sunday afternoon…It is encouraging to see young people do something worthwhile. Your selections were good and well rendered…”

“I saw you and the girls’ chorus on TV this afternoon, and I want you to know how much I enjoyed your performance. Your selections, the voices, and the training were outstanding. You certainly have done an outstanding job with the group….”

From Fishnet’s area administrator of public education comes the following congratulatory note after attending a Christmas Concert:
“You and members of the Laketown Chorus are to be commended on a superb concert…. It must give you a great deal of self-satisfaction for a job well done to hear and observe the results of your efforts to develop the musical talents of the students….”
The Laketown chorus participated in numerous annual choral festivals sponsored by the Grande` Department of Education. One national adjudicator evaluated Miss Forest and the Chorus:
“Interpretation and Artistic Effect-excellent; Intonation-good; Accuracy-excellent; Shadings and Contrasts-well done; Tone-beautiful quality; Diction-very good; Presentation-excellent; Appearance-excellent; your artistic effect is excellent, also the
