SINGING IN THE S. A. T. C

In conjunction with the work of the Committee on Education , and Special Training, the Commission on Training Camp Activities has recently issued a bulletin containing a report of the singing in the S. A. T. C. This report is made up of extracts from letters sent into the Washington office by the song leaders of ten different S. A. T. C. units in various sections of the country. More space in this bulletin is devoted to the report of Director McWhood of the work at Dartmouth than to that of any other unit. Mr. McWhood's report gives a detailed account of the method of conducting the "Sings" here, and summarizes the results as follows:

"The spirit and enthusiasm of the men in the whole matter of the S. A. T. C. singing was of the most splendid type. The "sings", indeed, soon became an institution not only for the men, but for the public. At the first sing, about a dozen persons sat in the gallery, to hear the men; at the second, about SO; at the third, about 200; from then on, the gallery was filled every week, people even coming from outlying towns; at the final sing the auditorium was packed, with many scores of people standing in the rear, and even some in the aisles. The success of the whole undertaking seemed complete."
