and Bring Nice Returns.

Last FRIDAY ana SATURDAY HlShls
the sub-collegiate and primary rooms
of Hartford College furnished the peo-
pie of the town and surrounding coun-
try, two first class entertainments
Friday night the pupils Of the 1, 2, 3
and grades, who have been trained
by their teachers, Miss Matte Moseley
and Mrs. Julia Wedding, held forth in
all their glory, and well did the little
folks account for the sacrifice and
care which had been given by their
teachers through the months of the
school. The exercises consisted in
drills, songs and recitations. Every
member is deserving of special men
ton, but we can only mention few
of them. The butterfly drill, Sewing
Society, and Keeping Store, dia-
logues, were especially good A
vocal duet, by Masters Larkin Griffin
and Gayle Taylor, entitled, Merry lit
tie Blacksmiths, brought down the
house.
On Saturday night the pupils of the
9Th, 9th, 7th and Sth grades, made a
anywhere. The teachers in charge of
these grades are Miss Lillian Monroe
and Mrs. Lucy T. Cooper. Their work
would have been a credit to much
older boys and girls. The solo, by
Miss Marian Holbrook was enjoyed
by all and showed marked talent. The
dialogues, Scene at the Ticket Of
fice," and 100 much of a Good Thing
were well played by all those who had
characters in them, and several of the
boys and girls displayed talent, which
was unusual for their years. The Up
Shutdown drill was unique and pleased
the large audience very much. The
Flower Drill, by sixteen girls, was
perfect, and very beautiful. So, also
-'Grandmother's Drill by twelve girls,
was true to life, and gone through
with precision. The Military Drill"
participated in by squad of Hartford
College Cadets, was a pleasing fea-
ture and the boys went through the
various foot movements and manuel
of arms, with an exactness, which
surprised even the members of Co.
H, who were present, and no doubt
excited some jealousy in their hearts.
The TON Thumb Wedding" was
carried out with all the pomp and
dress displayed at the most fashiona-
BILE event of the kind, by the little
folks. Master Ross Taylor and Miss
Marian Holbrook represented the bride
and groom, and Master Hanson Keown
and Miss Marie Ragland the groom's
best man and brides maid. Master
Willie Seibert performed the functions
of a minister with all the details and
solemnty due the occasion.
The College management appreciates
the liberal support given the under
taking by the parents, who went to so
much expense and pains in many in
stances to fit their children for the
various parts, and to the people who
aided by their presence. The unan-
amous expression was one of approval
and pride, because of the good show
ing made by the boys and girls in
these grades, which gives so much
promise for their future when theyJ
will take their places in the Collegiate
department.
The gross receipts for the two even
ings was $14S.30, and the net amount
will be about $125.00, which has been
set apart by the Board of Education
as a nucleous for Hartford College
Library.
