tainly have no reason to regret the
time spent. The high school room
was crowded to it's utmost capacity
and a large number stood In the
hallway near the doors leading to
the room. From first to last the
program was interesting and each
individual effort was greeted with
merited applause. Ga%
The exercises began by a piano
duet by Misses Clytie Stuart and
Myrtle Southmayd. 1t is needless
to state that this number was well
rendered, for the accomplishments OF
these two young ladies are well
known to the citizens of Little Falls.
An original poem entitled "The
Glass of 1907 was recited by Miss
HERNIA Beatty. In we'll chosen
words rythmically arranged the
young speaker, with a modest refer
ence to herself, extolled each one Of
the other eleven members of her class,
The appreciation of her clever effort
was attested by hearty applause. !:
Frank Kiewel followed with an
GRAFTON on "Monopolies and Trusts.
While Mr.. Kiewel condemned the
trusts and monopolies, he did not
go 80 far as to offer a remedy for
them. However he gave valuable
and authentic information concern
ing the evils that result from their
existence and made an able argu-
ment for their suppression in some
manner. Mr.. Kiewel's manner of
speaking was pleasing and his ora
ton proves him to be a student. =
A defamation. "Coeur de Lion at
the Deathbed of His father" was
beautifully rendered by Miss Isabel
Heath. .rx>s; a sss...,s,
One of the best original numbers
on the program was the grafton ssby
Mark Millspaugh. president Nc
Kinley's Attitude Toward the Phil
pines," was the subject, and a very
able argument, justifying the presi-
dents so-called expansion policy
was made. Mark gives promise of
greater things in the future, and at
the conclusion his effort was given
a generous share of applause.
Harry Kerr, as the writer OF the
original poem for the class, truth
fully said Is the orator OF the class,
His GRAFTON, "Spartacus to The Ro-
man Enjoys, was delivered in an ex-
cellent manner. He possesses a
strong voice and has had consider
able training in it's use. Harry was
loudly applauded at the conclusion
of his part of the program.
An grafton, with MOZART" as the
subject, was pleasingly delivered by
Miss Clytte Stuart, and was followed
by a we'll rendered violin solo by
Miss Norma Williams.
VIM. Fans delivered an interest
ing Grafton on "Booksand Reading
and Miss Letetia Raymond followed
him with a humorous defamation,
"The Conversazzhyouy.'
Miss Raymond's rendition of this
piece was clever and pleasing.
Only one OF the numbers on the
program could really be said to be
q disappointment and that was the
grafton of Roy Robinson. The dis
was in the audience
not having it. The title was
''Spanish Rule in Cuba" Those who
had the privilege Of reading it before
the exercises state that 1t was one of !
the best of the original numbers on
the program. Through nervous
ness and a lack OF confidence, Mr..
forgot portion of it, and
as the rules adopted to govern these
exercises do not permit prompting /
he sat down without finishing.
The sympathy Of the audience was
with him and thisl s.little:.. failure
thoughJembarrassing7 at the time
will doubtless make1himl more lcer-
tain of success in future efforts.
A defamation by Miss Mamie
ones, entitled "How John Quit the
Farm" made a good impression up
IN the audience.
The last number on the program
If the class exercises was an, Illus
rated lecture by Miss Emma Collins.
The Seniors were her subject and
'he gave avery humorous description
Of what each member of the Senior
would lie fifteen hence in the opinion
