The above programme was rendered
in a manner highly pleasing and salts
factory to the immense audience that
had assembled at the town hall. There
was not an inch of standing room unoc-
cupied and many people were turned
away unable to gain admission. The
entertainment vas the most interest
ing of any that has ever been given by
our public schools, The essaysand rec
itations by the pupils, from the wee
little tots of children up to the dignitied
young lady Seniors were all of high
grade of merit.
American Poets" was the subject
of Edith Chapman's composition, and
she did it ample justice, and read it
we'll. Mabel Hilton came next with
Henry w. Longfellow," who was the
hero of the entertainment. Her essay
was filled with bright thoughts, and
proved that she had mastered her sub
ject. The recitation "Guilty or not
Guilty" by Myrta Wilson was beauti-
full, and we'll delivered. college Oil
Cans, showing up the kind OF oil
some college chaps keep,-wss at the

piece. Inez Chapman delivered it in a
very fine manner. Myrta Wights
essay, "The Songs they Sing" was
excellent, and read in a clear manner
so that all might hear, which was a
great merit. Julia Knerr next read
1.-THE Influence of Poetry, and Alta
Witzler the Poetry of Childhood, y
both of which were very good and well
rendered.
Amelia Wetzel then recited ''The
Beggar," which was done in an espec-
tally fine manner, and terminated in a
most beautiful tableau of Mother in
Heaven" She was assisted by Miss
Bella Averill.
Mary Oblinger recited "Hettie
McEwen" amidst considerable tableau
smoke, which caused few boys to
cough, but she braved it through, and
her patriotic recitation was nicely rem
dered, and met with applause.
Lille Charles did we'll with "Songs
Of the Night which exhibited an i'm
nenso power for snoring, and made Il
good deal of fun for everybody The
Little Pilgrim was next recited by
Cara Knull, and Inez Chapman and
George Schlect gave a little sketch
entitled Thanksgiving Growl," +" which
took immensely, and was applauded to
The echo.
The children Of the lower grades did
splendidlY. Miss Bloomfield, Mrs.
Chamberlain, Miss Munger, and Miss
Newton each had concert recitations
by their pupils, and all were very nice
~ trained. The first piece by Miss
Bloomfelds and Mrs. Chamberlain s
pupils was especially well done
because the children were elevated in
such a manner as to present q beautiful
appearance.
The concluding "Grand March" by
} pupils of Misses Zaenger and Wetzel.
closing with beautiful tableau 1.-The
Muse or goddess OF poetry by Miss
Daisy Thompson was as fine thing as
ever was on our stage.
The orchestra gave a few numbers
which were kindly received by tho
audience, most of whom still liYe.
