Grades of the American Fork public
schools, gave MAY Day Festival"
in which more than four hundred and
fifty children took part. The pro-
gram as presented represented the de-
parture Of winter and the coming of
spring; which idea was developed
through Rotations. songs and dances.
The first number was a winter song.
sung by boys from the second grades
which was followed by the address to
winter and the harold of spring. The
beautiful spring scene was followed
by the chorus of four hundred and
fifty voices, "All the Birds have Come
Again" During the singing of MAY
Day So Bright" a pageant, consisting
OF May Queen. prime escort. maids of
honor may pole dancers. etc, came
forward To the center of the stage and
encircled the may pole.
After speeches by the prospective
queen and escorts, the queen was
crowned during the singing Of Hail
TO the Queen" by the entire chorus.
The queen announces that royal state
shall now be laid down and the time
given over TO MAY day Festivities. con-
sisting OF folk dancing the braidng
OF the May pole, etc. followed by the
opretta Gypsy Festival" by the fourth
grade. AS a fitting climate to the
program the entire chorus sang the
song. "The L. S. A. Forever" and gave
the salute to the flags at the close.
II was one Of the best programs ev-
err given by the little ones in the his
tory Of American Fork and was great
ly appreciated by the large crowd In
attendance. II certainly must have
been hard work for the teachers and
pupils TO train and be trained for such
an entertainment, besides going along
with their regular school work.
