In private schools the classes are rela-

more thorough training, but which insures
the personal contact of the teacher and the
pupil. This personal contact, inasmuch as
it is constant. produces lasting effect. The
teacher is given opportunity to study the

MISS BELLS PORTRAYAL

The second production of Emmy Lou"
at the Jackson Memorial Institute yester-
day afternoon was a repetition of Friday
nights success. Perfection was seemingly
reached in the acting of fifteen Normal
School girls and teachers, and the prime
purpose of the play, TO set off the odd and
burlesque side of school life, was success
fully attained. Every feature of the village
school was brought out with a most re-
markable tinge Of delicacy, most entertain
ing and novel;
As everything else, the play had to be
seen to be appreciated in its real signifi-
cance. The large platform with twelve
little stools and on the twelve little stools
twelve big girls dressed up as "four-year-
olds' was worth seeing, and the girls
themselves could hardly restrain a laugh
when they saw their friends looking at
them in their infant clothes.
AS the story goes, three lower grades
of school were passed through and the
pupils were now taking the last year of
spelling. Finally the spring term drew on
to it's finish, and the great day drew nigh
the day of the spelling match. A buzz of
excitement prevailed that morning before
the bell rang in the crowded schoolroom

query. 1t was useless TO consider some

it correctly the high pitch of enthusiasm

OF the classroom the heorine of the year.
Great credit is reflected upon Miss Ella
McCarty for her successful dramatiZation
of George Martins novel and for the faith
fulness she has shown in drilling the schol-
ars.
The fifteen normal students and teachers
entered into the play with all their spirit
and with the determination to make it a
success. Special credit is being given to
Cornelia T.. Bell for the aptitude she eX-
hibited as Emmy Lou.
1t is the earnest wish of the 800 persons
who saw the performance that the prece-
dent established this year be maintained
in the future.
