Pupils of sodom School Give Pleasing
 Entertainment.

The pupils of the Sodom school in Yantic. gave delightful entertain ment Monday evening under the su- pervision of their teacher, Miss Ray mond. The programme opened with a march and drill finely executed by the pupils to nicely played organ ac- compartment by the teacher. The first half of the programme was confined to recitations by the younger pupils, interspersed with harmoniously rem dered vocal selections. Following the first half a striking tableau was given by Miss Grace Leonard, who charm ingly portrayed grandma knitting, which called forth applause from the audience. Particularly pleasing was the dual fairy tales of Jack and Jill as told by the Ladd boys, who showed careful training.
