PEOPLES ACADEMY NOTES

Several pupils are absent from
school because of sickness. Among
those whose illness is especially
severe are Barbara LeBaron,
Corinne Dame, Rebecca Briggs and
Madeline Hastings.
! Leila Burroughs, who has been
seriously i'll for several weeks, has re-
turned to school this week.
The basketball team returned from
the Barre trip Saturday noon.
Although the p. A. boys were severely
defeated by the Spaulding team, they
showed an abundance of grit
throughout the game. Mudgett scored
J IL points out of Is free trials for
goals on fouls. Mortified High
School played the Spaulding second
team between periods. AS a special
courtesy to the P. A. boys, dance
was held. This was an unusual fea-
ture, as social functions after basket
ball games are not commonly given
at Spaulding High School. The fol-
lowing are a few comments taken at
random from the Barre Times of last
Saturday: Peoples Academy's light
team played gamely until the time
whistle was blown and did not seem
to be the least downhearted by their
defeat of SO to 20. Each team showed
the friendliest sort of feeling toward
the other. Good passing was shown
by both teams, but Spaulding had
the knack of finding the weak spots
in their opponents defense"
On Saturday night at Hyde Park
the P. A. second team played Hyde
Park team composed partly of high
school boys and partly of players of
long and successful experience. The
game, which was rather rough but
snappy, resulted in a victory for the
Hyde Park boys.
On Monday night the p A. boys
played a very close game with an

JOHNSON DREAD CLUB NOTES

The play, Nothing but the Truth"
given for the benefit of the Dread
Literary Club last Friday evening,
played to good house and everyone
present enjoyed a good laugh
Owing to the severe cold many
who had purchased tickets were I'M
able to attend, otherwise the house
would have been overcrowded. The
play was very difficult one to give
and required a great amount of act
ing. The parts were very we'll chosen
and every one did credit to them
selves. 1t is hard to draw line any
where, but we feel that special men
ton should be, made of Mrs. Ralph
Mayo and Ellis H. Parker, who had
very difficult parts. The play was
under the management of the school
faculty, with Miss Flossie Demeritt
as chairman.
Miss Joslin's training class put on
two specialties with good deal of
merit.
We wish also to make mention of
the scenery and makeup so well cared
for by Mrs. William Laporte and
Morris Hill. Music was furnished by
Chaffee's orchestra. The club realized
$500 net. The play will be given in
Jeffersonville on Wednesday evening
of this week.
The Dread Club wishes to thank
Miss Demeritt and the members of the
cast for their generous gift of time,
strength and talent in putting on the
play. Also Mrs. William Laporte.
Morris S. Hill and Frank Jones for
their work on the scenery and all
others who so kindly assisted when
ever called upon.
