School Notes
Last Friday evening the school I
was crowded almost to
is capacity with interested parents s
md friends of the school, who came i
tut to hear a program sponsored by
he school and rendered by the peo- I
Die of the community. Though the Z
program, composed of rhythmetic v
lances, solos, duets, quartets, in
music, recitations, read 6
ngs, talks and a playlet, lasted for ]
learly two hours, it furnished such
plendid entertainment and enjoy I
1ent that the audience was held n
pellbound throughout the entire n
vening.
Since an invitation had been ex- h
ended to the parents to come early a
nd visit with their children's tea h
hers, many parents took advantage
this opportunity to become better d
with the teachers of the is
chool IC
In his remarks Principal Bennett
ointed out that the program was, r.
18th one exception, a community a
rogram gotten up entirely by the
ONES. He also expressed a pleasant
lrprise at the great amount of tall
Mt available in the community, and
lie opinion that a number of sue
essful entertainments could be rem
cred without using the same par O
cipants twice. "
The program seemed to be so we'll 1,
