"The Nation" gathered togather on
May %, 1912, to see the beautiful ex-
ercises of the closing of the Trinity
school. 1t was an ideal night-no
cloud to hinder the moon from she'd
ding its beautiful silvery rays over the
"Nation." Indeed that, 1 think, is quite
an appropriate name, for you never
saw so many children in all your life.
Trinity is noted for producing good
singers, and they seemed at their best
on this occasion.
The exercises commenced with a
dialogue beautifully rendered by Pitts
Schroeder, Bernice Stilwell, Walter
Adams, Norman Martin, Madison Dav-
export and Evelyn Stilwell. Next was
America" sung by school, and they
did full justice to young America in
rendering the same.
"a Little Boys Lecture by Virgil
Stilwell, was indeed good.
l think Col E. H. Aull was intro
duced next, and he made one of those
eloquent speeches which comes so
easy to the colonel, that I am begin
ming to think that he is hard, to beat
as stump speaker. His address was
we'll received, and from what you
could hear whispering around the
grounds they are we'll pleased with
him as superintendent of education. I
heard several say that he had given
the country schools fine attention.
+.Arthurs Bravery was next, and
he, like most boys, put on bold face
until the ghost came, and Arthur left.
Sunshine or Shower" came next,
and was real good.
What is a Observation-Disclosures
by Wilfred Martin, Geo. w. Hendrix,
Earl Schroeder, and Frank Adams
would make a gentleman in the truest
sense of the word "Whipping John
! ME-" by Nancy Stilwell and Herbert
Longshore, was indeed good. "Reverie
in Church." a recitation by Marjorie
Martin, was next. What They Will
Do" by Virgil Stilwell and Summer
Longshore was nice dialogue.
"The Dolly Show" dialogue by
Pauline Stilwell, Julia Adams, Hattie
Davenport, Hazel Davenport, Elsie
Pitts, Evelyn Stilwell, Cora Lee Hen
dirk, Madison Davenport and Kenneth
Martin, was quite good. Little Pitch
err" dialogue by Earl Schroeder,
Gladys stilwell, Emma Longshore,
Marjorie Martin, was also quite inter-
esting.
Come, Come, Come" song by the
school, was just splendid. Little
Match" boy tableau, was next. Then
came GA Slight Misunderstanding"
dialogue which was very strongly pre-
slented by Efie Bishop and Geo. W.
Hendrix You know all the Bishops are
good speakers, and so was George
Hendrix. l was sitting beside Mr..
Bishop, when his beautiful daughter
seemed to be at her best, and when I
inquired who she was, the old gentle
man said, That's my daughter"
replied, "You ought to be proud Of
her." and 1 am sure he is.
Mammals Little Market Woman"
a recitation by Elsie Pitts, was also
good. Single Life was next we'll
rendered. ga Little Girls Lecture to
Mother was recitation by Matte
Lee Bishop, who showed quite de-
gree of oratory, which characterizes
the Bishops. Parliamentary Law
was quite success. The Invitation"
dialogue by Matte Lee Bishop and
Kenneth Martin, was good. fMischie-
vous Matte" was splendidly rendered
by Efie Bishop, Nancy Stilwell, Mar
jorie Martin, Gladys Stilwell and jamie
May Schroeder Gerry and the Ice
Cream" dialogue by Marjorie Mar
tin, Malcolm Hendrix, Gladys Sti1well,
j. w. Adams, was just splendid. I did
not know that Malcolm was such
graceful dancer, but suppose those
girls could make any fellow hop, skip
and jump.
