School Closing

The Evening Shade High School .
closed its term with programs on
Thursday and Friday nights of last .
week, which are said by those who
saw them to have been the best
ever delivered by the school. These
programs were under the manage
ment of Miss Georgia Snced of
! Searcy, instructor in elocution, who
had a large class in the school. This
young lady did good work for her
pupils and the town, and the talent
displayed by those under her charge
was, in some degree at least, a rev.
elation to many who were not ac-
qUainted with the character of the
work going on under her direction.
Thursday night five recitation
and defamation contests were on
| the program, silver medals being
prizes for the winners. Prof Otis
Lawrence Of Sidney, Walter Cope of
Hardy and Prof 0. c. Shaver Of
! Evening Shade were selected as
judges. In the little girls contest
Miriam Clark and Edna Stokes tied
for first place and both were
awarded medals. There was also a
tie for first honors among the small
boys between Ted Metcalf and Hu-
bert Clark. Maggie Justus won the
medal in the contest of larger girls.
Miss Kate Herrn was declared win
ner in the contest in which young
ladies participated, while Claude
Justus carried off honors in the
1young mems contest.
We should imagine that the
judges had no little difficulty in
grading any Of the many contest
ants one above the other, and it is
most certainly true there is no re-
proach to those who were not de-
clared winners, for it must have
been the opinion of the audience
that all the contestants were really
winners. Indeed, an Objectionable
feature of a contest Of this kind is
that al who deserve medals cannot
have them The winners have ev-
cry reason to feel proud of their ef-
forts. So have the losers. We
heartily congratulate the winners
'sapd the losers.
Both programs were attended by
a large number of people, who
would no doubt vote unanimously
for Miss Sneeds services in the
school another year and unite in
declaring her work a very essential
mart Of education
