Saturday morning opened up
gloomy, but later on in the morning
the heavy clouds drifted back and
the sun burst forth beneath the
threatening clouds as if it might

the appointed hour the program
began and for two hours the little
lads and lassies entertained us with
their songs speeches and dialogues
which could not be excelled. Just
as the morning program had been
finished and Prof. Miller had made
a very fine address dinner was an
nounced by our superintendent, Mr..
Verna White. He extended a
pressing invitation to all to come
and help themselves to all the good
things. All gathered around the
