The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1921-11-18
PROGRAM or MUCH INTEREST.
Was Presented Under Direction Of Sis
tiers Of Sacred Heart Convent.

Enhancing. infinitely suggestive Of
wars, brooks, forests primeval, and of
love, and, in sense, weird, without
losing its value as clean entertainment,
was the musical program furnished
at the Barre opera house last night
by the music pupils of the Sacred
Heart convent of st. Monica's church
for the benefit of the poor Of st. Mon
ica's parish. Over four hundred people
were present at the entertainment,
which was furnished wholly by young
people between the ages OF six and elk
teen.
That much work and thought had
been put into the preparation Of the
show was easily seen from the first.
All the children, forty-seyen in all,
were dressed in costumes Of different
kinds, some of crepe and Others of
realistic brown cloth cut into uniforms.
The Sisters Of st. Monica's church had
the work in charge.
The program for the evening was di-
vided into three parts, the first being
the Camp Fire Ground, the second the
Nations Prophet. the third, At the
Foot of the Mound. In the first came
an instrumental selection by a quintet
composed Of Miss f. White, Miss b.
White, Dalton White. Clayton White
and Loretta Hamel. followed by song,
'sWake, Wake in which all had
part. A piano selection by Harrington
Spellacy, entitled "The Medicine Man"
was one Of the. features of the eve
ming. In The Calling of the Flowers"
sixteen girls danced onto the stage at
the call Of Miss Anna Sullivan and
performed A drill in imitation of a
ceremony once in vogue among the In
dians Of the Pacific coast
The second part began with four In
dian melodies interpreted at the piano
by Misses Kathleen Fitzgerald. Doro-
thy Beaulieu. Lucienne Pauquet and
Mary Weafer. This was followed by
another piano selection, "An Indian
March," BY Pauline Fitzgerald, which
was quite well done. Another Indian
game. called "Pu-in." and played for
merly by nearly all tribes in the north
eastern states and Canada. added TO
the entertainment much Of mystery.
Followed a vocal selection, an Indian
cradle song, by Pauline Fitzgerald, as
sisted by a doll tied into a board and
representing, presumably. a pappoose.
The climax came when Miss Olive Can
ton sang tho Indian Canoe Song"
which was the finest thing on the bill
so good. in fact. that Miss Canton re-
spondcd to the encore with a treat
not on the list, a song entitled. ~Pret-
ty Flower
A due: and a trio at the piano were
other performances worthy of special
mention, the former being executed by
Anna Sullivan and Dorothy Humphrey.
