Dramatis drill
At the conclusion of the exercises.
Rev. D. Kelly addressed the audience
as follows:
Shakespeare has said that good
things should be praised" In your
well rendered programme this after
noon. like all your entertainments
given in this hall. there was not n
hitch. and each part of the programme
was rendered in a faultless manner.
The musical part. both instrumental
and vocal, was too far beyond my
reach for criticism. or bestowal of the
praise it deserves. but I do know that
it pleased me immensely. and l am
sure all were equally pleased. They
ought to be- They are all your friends.
Prompted by love and ties of kindred
they came here this afternoon to hear
and listen to your Christmas greet
ings, and you have succeeded in MAX
ing them supremely happy. They are
justly proud of your success. There is
no earthly reason why they should not
be happy; for in addition to the happi-
ness which the anticipation of Christ
mas always brings to all young and
old, your entertainment graceful
manners. happy, cheerful and limo
cent faces have increased that happi-
ness this afternoon. For all this I
congratulate you. dear children, and
in return for all you have done, wish
you pleasant and merry Christmas
You are on the eve of your Christmas
holidays. Then
Christmas play and make good cheer.
For Christmas comes but once year.
You. parents and friends of the
children. / thank you for your presence
here today. 1t is an encouragement to
the children, and a mark of your APP
probation of their successful efforts
1 have no doubt but that you are per-
fectly satisfied with what you wit
messed this afternoon. Yet this little
performance in no way represents the
work that has been done in the school
room since last September. The real
work done by these young ladies and
children is concealed from us today.
Their proficiency in the various
branches of study in which they have
been engaged could be learned only
at their semi~annual examinations
These you are at liberty to come, and
as parents You viii be made welcome
These examinations will serve as an
object lesson for you, for then you will
learn that the proficiency and steady
advancement of your children in all
the sciences, are greater than any
thing you have seen today. l am
speaking from my own experience of
what l have seen and heard in the
past; also from what i have heard
parents themselves admit. Parents
told me that their children. whom they
taught and examined, after a few
years at st. Mary's academy, We're able
to teach them. This proud record of
the past will be always the motto of
this academy.
In addition to this your children will
be well grounded in moral principles.
BY force of example, they learn to be
gentle and kind. How little kindness
is TO be found in the world. Woman,
through kindness, has the power of
making the world happy. Unhappi-
ness. in most instances, is the result
of unkindness on the part of the
world. 4 little kindness at this season,
prompted by elaboration. would bring
happiness to many poor families. This
Kindness, charity. and other kindred
good qualities, which make up the real
Christian woman ale instilled into the
minds of your children and instead Of
diminishing their education, viii serve
to make it complete. l congratulate
you in having such an institution at
your command.
I must not forget those silent, hidden
workers, to whom we owe all for the
success of this entertainment, for it
