The girls who play basket ball have
been doing hard practice during tbe
past two weeks. Much improvement
has been made and we are now ready
for some match games.
Tuesday afternoon practice game
was played with the high school. The
nigh school girls play good game
and the team works together nicely
However, the grammar school team
is comparable to that of the HIGH
school. The score of the last game
which was 2 and 2, is evidence of this
This match game will be finished as
soon as the weather permits.

The Thanksgiving story has been
worked out in a most interesting way
by Mrs. Griffith. One section of her
sand table is England. From this
part group of tiny Pilgrim dolls en-
bark and sail away to the part of the
table called Holland. Here the Pill
grims remain for short time living
as the natives of Holland live. But
they soon grow tired of Holland and
her customs. Again the Pilgrims sail
away. This time they sail across the
ocean to the beautiful land called
America. After they have liven in
America for short time they with
the Indian dolls give thanks to God
for all they have.
We believe that each child in this
grade has learned the Thanksgiving
story SO well that it will never be
forgotten. Always the scene pictured
on the sand table will be remembered.
During the last period Wednesday
all the grades assembled in the chapel
for Thanksgiving program. Thanks
giving stories were told, poems were
read, and songs were sung. Each
grade took part in the exercises.
|, 1t seems that the concensus of
opinion is, that in every way we are
having one of the best years ever
known in Prescott grammar school.
We have been assured of this by many
visitors and by all those who have
closely observed our work. Each
teacher is striving every day to i'm
prove, and the work of all is very har-
monious. You are cordially invited
to come and see for yourself if this
is true.

MASCULINE PLAY
HAS RECORD RUN

Paris. May 31.-Sacha Guiltry's
play, "Pasteur," in which no woman's
character appeared has had run of
1O7 performances, which, for a play
entirely devoid of feminine interest
is considered in Paris to have been a
great success. The piece, however,
hardly had claimes to be play. It
was rather a series of unconnected
scenes in the life of the great scien-
fist. beginning with one showing him
with his pupils, at the outbreak of the
war of 1870, continuing with scenes
introducing his first application of
his vaccination again hydrophobia
and ending with his reception at the
French Academy.
The absence of any woman's role
was not the only remarkable feature
of the piece. The "hero" has not been
dead rs years yet, so that many who
saw the play remembered him per-
sonally. The author found his mater
ials in the life of Pasteur written by
Pasteur's son-in-law, NJ Vallery Rad
OF, whose wife, Pasteur's daughter, on
seeing Lucien Guiltry, the authors
father, who played the title role with
a marvellous makeup, could not help
exclaiming "papa!" The boy who
played the part of the first victim of
mad dogs bite to be treated by Pas
teur was young brother of the boy
who really was treated.
