Last night at the Opera
House, the Senior class of the
High School presented two play
let's Sunbonnets and Mr.. Bob,-
to a large and highly appreciat-
i've audience. The sketches went
with vim and go that proved
very pleasing to the audience
and showed hard work and
careful preparation on the part
of the players. The youngsters
handled every situation with a
sureness; and confidence hardly
expected of them and demons
trated unlocked for ability
throughout the entire evening.
One of the pleasing features
was the farewell song to the
school sung by the ladies of
the class and which earned
them a very hearty encore.
Too much credit cannot be
given the director Of the play
as the success of any entertain
ment of this kind depends en-
tirely upon wise direction and
careful training, and these
features were in pleasing evil
dence throughout the two pre-
formances. AS a graduation
entertainment, the presentation
of light and wholesome coined
les by the class, is becoming
more popular with each year
and is much better form than
the old method of delivering
long and tiresome orations upon
subjects to deep for the grad
yates to handle intelligently'
and usually leading the auditor
into rather deep water.We think
that the large audience went
home Thoroughly satisfied
with the class of 'O9.
