An entertainment was given by the
scholars in District No. s, last Friday
afternoon. and handsome flag raised
upon the staff on the school grounds,
from the proceeds. The school room
was very tastefully decorated with
bunting, flags, ferns and flowers. Over
the teachers desk was picture of
President and Mrs. Mckinley and the
White House, while upon an easel to
the left rested a fine picture OF Roose-
Welt. The teacher, Miss NJ. f. Jones of
this town, and pupils, wore either red,
white or blue sashes, and being downed
in white, presented a very pretty ap-
pearance as they marched in to the
room and gave the following program
most acceptably: Singing of "Colum-
bia' by the school; FecitatiOns, "Union
and Liberty" Grace Morang; Patriot
ISM Jesse Smith; Gen. Warren's Ad-
dress Before tho Battle of Bunker
HILL" Eugene Morang; What Makes
Nation" Mary Buckley; "Presenta-
ton of the Flag" Tommic Buckley,
this last was wholly original and re-
Elected great credit upon the little fell
low who composed and rendered it;
Dicks Flowers" Edwin Cooper;
Making of the Flag" Eva Morang;
''Our Flag" Willie French; 'Indepen-
dence Bell" Elsie Allen: when Uncle
Sans in Trouble" Leon Alien; THE
Returned Maine Battle Flags Susie
Perkins; barbara Frietchie," Margu-
erite Cooper: "Hatties Views on House
Cleaning" Gladys Cooper; singing of
Star Spangled Banner" raising of
the flag and the singing of "America'
closed the program which certainly re-
flected great credit on both teacher and
pupils and which was greatly enjoyed
by the large number present. 1t is

love and obedience of her pupils and
that her school is we'll conducted in
every way.
