THE LESTER NORRIS SCHOOL.

The generous patronesses of the Lester
Norris Memorial Kindergarten on Pacific
street glsddened the hearts of over $50 of
their little charges yesterday morning with
a bountiful Thanksgiving feast. That the
children had reason TO be happy after pun
ishlng bounteous spread of good things
and jolly time with songs and games,
there is little doubt. as no pains were
spared In making the affair one which will
long be remembered by Them
Shortly after II o'clock the tots were
called in from the Fairgrounds In the
rear, and marched into the large assembly
room of the Kindergarten, which had been
eXQuisitely decorated with the choicest of
flowers for the occasion. On entering they
were seated at the handsomely decorated
tables laden with all that was necessary
in completing thanksgiving feast.
There was turkey in abundance, but
what was the dainty flesh of the natal bird
alongside of pumpkin and mince pies?
The children testified to this fact in an
amusing manner. They began with pie
and finished with pie, and still wanted
more pie. Their wee faces were all spat-
tered with pie, and when it was all over
they sang "Grandma's Pumpkin Ple'
The afternoon was devoted to games and
nursery amnsements, III which they par
ticipated with childish glee. AS the fes-
tivites were brought to a close they were
bundled up IN their warm wraps, and after
a departing kiss from the affectionate
assistants wandered on to their respective
homes.
The children Of the Produce Exchange
and Pacific kindergarten shared In the
days pleasures as invited guests.
Miss Belle Scott, SUPERINTENDENT of the
school, conducted the festivities. and was
assisted by Miss Leila Craig, Miss Ii. Ade-
laide Bishop, Miss f. E. Colby and Miss
