CASTELAR, STREET.
The pupils under Miss Clara M. Healy
at Castelar-street school gave very
pleasant class entertainment on Thurs
day afternoon in the class room. There
were both musical and literary exercises
in great variety, and the scholars gave ev-
idence of the thorough training they had
received at the hands of their teacher.
Among things deserving of special mem
ton were the following: A dialogue,
entitled The Traveller, in which sixteen
boys and girls took part. The dialogue
represented tourists from all points of
the compass returning home to tell the
story of their travels, laden with the
products of the countries they had Wis.,
tied. The recitation, A Child World,
given by Ollie Mendenhall, was finely
rendered in a style that would have
been creditable to child of older years.
Another pleasing exercise was patri-
otic piece, given by three boys attired in
sashes of red, white and blue respec-
lively, and concluding with the singing
of the Red, White and Blue by the
class, with words written for the occa-
sion. The performance upon the harp
by Willie Laraia and the singing of
Eloise Coronado and Ollie Massey were
all deserving of high praise; while the
chorus singing by the class was also par
ticularly fine. 1
A number of visitors were present,
who went away much pleased with the
performance of the children
SAND STREET SCHOOL.
A competitive political geography
lesson was recent feature in Miss f.
A. Anderson's room at the Sand street

Edith Norviel, Neeta Marquis, Mary
Earrara, Annie Hars, Roy Brouseau,

sides. However, several passed through
the ordeal successfully, and their names
were duly entered upon the class roll of
honor.
