Norway Hleh school Fair.

A great success was the fair held nm.
der the auspices Of the students of Nor
way High School at Grange Hall Friday
afternoon and evening, and they must
have felt we'll rewarded for the large
amount of hard work which they had
put into 1t. The sale opened in the at.
ternoon, the various tables, which had
been very prettily decorated, being In
charge Of the young ladies of the school.
There was fancy table, apron table,
candy table, mystery booth and pop
corn table. The boys did not have
table as usual, but instead got up soap
order and took cash premium which
was turned in with the receipts of the
fair.
At $50 an excellent supper was serv.
ed, and although the weather was not all
that could have been desired, there was
q very large attendance. The method
used by the young ladies in serving at
the tables received much favorable COM
ment.
Following the supper pleasing enter
tainment was given. The pantomime
dance given by Esther Pike in Indian
costume with musical accompaniment
by her sister, Azola Pike, was graceful
exhibition and received the merited ap-
plause which 1t deserved. Miss Marion
Haskell gave as much pleasure as usual
with her violin playing. The last fea-
ture of the entertainment was the one
act farce, "a Man from Brandon" the
parts being taken by members OF the
senior class. The cast was as follows:
Phil Lester, Captain Of Brandon football team
Jeremiah Decker, M D.. from the KeISy Insane sans
Dan SeRSson of Brandon Miss 9anss n nsphsS
Miss Janet Spencer, maiden lady
,........-... Gertrude Z. Hunt
Berenice MoultOn, Dams sister n,,
Bertha Melvin, Berenice's friend
Frances G. Andrews
Anne, Miss Janet's maid Beatrice Cannon
The students proved themselves we'll
adapted to the various parts, and the
farce was bright and humorous affair
which left the audience in happy frame
of mind.
The cake which went to the one who
guessed the nearest to the correct weight
was won by Mrs. Frank DeCoster. This
cake, which was given to the school by
Mrs. Percy Nevers, was work OF art for
even an expert of Mrs. Nevers' ability.
1t was made in the shape of pyramid,
and was decorated with frosting which
represented green leaves and pink roses.
A number Of small candy birds were
also used in the decorations. 1t is re-
ported that the making and decorating
of the cake took nine hours Of Mrs.
Nevers' time.
The sofa pillow which went to the
one guessing the nearest to the number
of seeds in pumpkin was won by Percy
Movers, Jr., who accepted the same as a
sort of consolation prize, he being one OF
the unsuccessful candidates In the pony
contest, the winner of which was an
nounced that same evening.
The proceeds of the fair will amount
| to nearly $3.50.
