,atriotic program, which consisted
f recitations and plays. The seventh

tiled "The Revolutionary Masquer-

vas the turning point Of the Revo-
War, in which Mr.. Farley
Ised some splendid thought ques-
ions. He followed this demonstra-
ion by an address on the value of
eaching history and geography in

ace hatred will disappear. There
