us in a very beautiful way how
much good, good cooks can do.
But the part that most appealed
to the younger children was Finley
schools six Mother Goose songs.
There was Humpty Dumpty, Jack
and Jill. Bo Peep, Peter Pumpkin
Eater and his poor wife in the shell,
Tommy Tucker who made everyone
laugh, and Little Boy Blue who
slept so well that he almost could
not tell when to go off the stage.
But there was one thing that wOr.
ried James; he wondered how they
kept those plates on the scenery of
Mother Hubberd's dining room.
When Joseph Moore school chill
dren came on, the Japanese COS
tunes were SO good that James
asked. Are those real Japanese?
Both the Dutch and Americans
were good, and the boys with their
blue suits and flags in their caps
made real little soldiers.
Whitewater boys and girls did
some pretty lively sweeping and
busting, and the girls red Gust caps
and aprons made an attractive
showing. And the Hibberd girls in
their nightgOwns and bedroom slip
pers, with their dolls too, received
great applause also for their night
songs.
But the patriotic ending was so
stirring that James had to stand up
the whole time. Il tell you, I'm
glad I'm an American" he said, and
that was the highest compliment
he could have paid to the way those
numbers were presented.
Mary Louise Norris. who sang the
Star Spangled Banner in q way that
made you think of the meaning of
all the words, was without doubt
the most talented singer Of the aft
ernoon and represented Columbia
most charmingly.
When it was over James drew a
long breath and said, We'll, that
was the best concert | ever heard
And then he added. Gee, wasn't it
just a shame MIR. Sloane was sick
and couldn't be here?" And every
one felt the same way.
The Garfield and High School
concerts were just as great a sue
cess, also, and Richmond is very
proud to claim the. musical talent
which Mr.. Sloane and Miss Marlatt
have developed this year in the
schools.

Before the doctor realized it, he

chance to say half the things he
had intended. Then Grandmother
Gray went back to the onion bed
and her grandson.
