TWO SCHOOL CALCULATIONS
East Canaan Grammar and Eighth Grade, Canaan. Special Programs.

The dosing exercises of the East Canaan Grammar school held Wednes day night, June 20, were thoroughly patriotic in character.
 The village hall was filled with the friends of the graduates, John Goggin, Estella Hart, Hazel Miller and Eliza beth Smith About twenty Canaan friends attended, seats being reserved for them in the hall.
 First on the program came the sing. ing of "The Star Spangled Banner by the school, followed by the exemplifi- cation of the spirit of 1920, when four little Puritans; Caroline Caravati, Clara Minacci, Mary Battachio, Lena Contoreggi, in appropriate costume of the time, sang a Puritan song that greatly pleased the audience.
 The spirit of '76 was illustrated by Frank Contadore with drum, Isaia Ninacci with a flute and Eugene Sweeney as a wounded Continental soldier gave concert recitation of Independence Day". The spirit of '61 was brought out by John Goggin's s recitation of "Sherman's March" and the singing of "Dixie" and " renting tonight" by the school. For the spirit of 1917, Hazel Miller as Columbia gracefully carried through difficult part with ease and in good taste. For the allies, Marion Condon spoke for Italy, Estella Hart for England, Caro. line Caravati for France. Each recita- tion being followed by fitting song by the school.
 Elizabeth Smith in uniform looked just like real Red Cross nurse; her composition was carefully prepared and we'll delivered.
 Vittore Broggi and Isaia Minacci in Boy Scout regalia, Eugene Sweeney as a U. s. A Marine and Florence Garfield as little American girl, all greatly pleased their friends with their appropriate recitations and the spirit with which they entered into their parts.
 The whole program as arranged by the teacher, Miss Catherine Finnegan, was carried through with precision, and even those who had to take the places of scholars kept at home by the prevailing chicken-pox, did not hesi tate. The whole school responded~vS every suggestion of their teacher and suppo ted her loyalty. Miss Hart's $ work on the musical selections showed careful training. -s- .-. Supervisor '. B. Stone briefly ad. dressed the class and the diplomas were presented by MT. E. $. Roberts, chairman of the school committee.
