A more pleasing program mas MOI
often been presented at Sacred Heart
than that given last Wednesday after
noon, when the class of 1910, composed
of Miss Loretto Clause, Ely, New; Miss
Susie Jackman, Pocatello, Ida: Miss
Edna Hamilton, Evanston, Wyo.; Miss
Agnes Kennedy, Rawlins. Wyo.; Miss
Mabel Krauss and Miss Marguerite Nc
Nulty of Ogden, struck the keynote of
| the Thanksgiving celebration. At 5 D.
m. an appreciative audience had assem-
bled, including Reverends P. NJ. Cushna-
han and J. Ryan, the ladies stepped
upon the stage which was artistically
decorated with flags and S. H. A. pen
nants. The entire program, literary and
musical, was furnished by the members
Of the class.
The principal feature of the entertain
ment was the reading of the manuscript
! class paper, 1.-The Star of the West, .
which contained articles timely and
suggestive, pithy, short stories and clev-
er school hits that excited great merri-
ment. The cover design of this original
work was also the work of a member Of
| the class, Miss Jackman, and displayed
| to advantage the class colors, gold and
! white, in a conventional study of chrys-
anthemums.
The music numbers, instrumental and
vocal, were exceptionally well-rendered
showing Misses Krauss and Jackman,
Hamilton and McNulty, to be gifted in
many lines-the first two as pianists of
promising ability, the last two the pos
SCISSORS of pleasing, sympathetic voices.
At the conclusion of the program the
entire school sang America, in which
the audience Joined, and as the last
strains of that magnificent anthem died
away, Reverend P. NJ. Cushnahan eX-
pressed his appreciation of the after
moons entertainment and congratulated
the class of 1910.
That even things literary are con-
tagious was proved on Friday, when the
second academies entertained the classes
with delightful program consisting of
appropriations of the authors to whom
they have been devoting earnest study
during the past months. Biographical
sketches of Shakespeare, Milton, Addi-
son and TennySon were supplemented
by representative extracts, reviews of
interesting parts and a program exceed
ingly creditable to all concerned. The
value of these reunions cannot be fully
estimated. They secure for pupils the
power of discussion, ease of narration
and an acquaintance with many facts
which might otherwise remain obscure.
The second preparatory class proved
that the literary taste may be cult
waited early, for their Longfellow after
noon was an enjoyable one. A delight
full biographical sketch, so replete with
characteristic anecdotes as related by
Miss Ruth Smith of Evanston, showed
that she had made the gentle singer her
friend. Her knowledge of daily occur
rences was evident in the clear, interest
ing manner in which she summed up
y.rJr- Ii
the productions of little Dorothy Hen
messy, Butte Mont Eillene Reddy, Og-
den, and Hazel Thorpe, Rock Springs.
A dainty little poem recited at the close
showed Lillian O'Neill of Ogden was
also an admirer of the tender. Altogeth-
er, these little misses entertained de-
lightfully, and Sacred Heart has reason
to look with eXpectant hope for future
results in lines literary.
