HIAWArHA'S CHILDHOOD
SPLENDIDLY PRESENTED
Indian Operetta Presented by $50

Under Direction Of Miss Whitley
PIeases Large Audience.
BEGINS COMMENCEMENT ExEx Uses

The Commencement Exercises
of the Roanoke Rapids Public
Schools began on last Tuesday
evening. when "Hiawatha's IS
Childhood" an Indian operetta,
was presented by a chorus of
three hundred and fifty children
of elementary grades, under the
direction of Miss Gladys Whitley,
assisted by Miss Marjorie Men
denhai and Miss Myrtle Blake.
The Production was staged en-
a scale large enough to tax the
resources he mammoth audi
torium stage and the effect pro-
duced by high banks of children
arranged in semi-circle around
the stage were very striking.
Discipline was perfect and the
choruses were rendered surpris-
ingly well for children so young.
The Indian war dance by group
of boys and the dance of the
firef1ies by group of little girls
were very attractively executed.
Another very enjoyable feature
of the program were the two
solos delightfully."- rendered by
Miss Mendenhall IN parts II and
III.
The general excellence of the
production was a striking testi-
monial TO the ability and patience
of Miss Whitley and her assist
ants in the difficult work of
training large numbers of small
children in intricate choruses.

Timely Tips For The Home
Gardener

Just now is a most important
time in the home vegetable gar
den. There are the young tomato
plants, the young peppers and
eggplants to be transplanted and
the cabbage and cauliflower to be
looked after. All of these are
much benefited if they can be
transplanted now in a good we'll
pulverized soil that contains hu-
mus or decayed vegetable matter
so that the young roots will not
dry out nor the soil bake about
them. 2. E. Mccall, extension
Garden Specialist for the State
College and State Department of
Agriculture, says that these
things should receive attention
at once. He advises also that
