VI ocuOOl, presented Dy Lne puplli
of Mrs. Hester Dunn, in the higE
school auditorium ON Tuesday eve.
ming of last week was thoroughly
enjoyed by those who were privileg-
ed to attend. The recital was pre-.
sented in the form of an original
musical comedy and consisted ol
two acts, with about so children
taking active part and more than &c
of them having performed at the pi-
ano. In the first act, Miss Virginia
Long, the "old maid teacher" and
her pupils had some great expert
ences getting ready for that wonder
full eVent-the closing exercises on
the last day of school. The second
act depicted a scene on the final day
when the pupils did their best to en-
tertain their guests in Guiding men,
bers of their families sand the local
school board, with a spelling bee,
some recitations and music, both vo-
cal and instrumental. In the March
of the Wee Folk" by the rhythmic
orchestra, in the first act, George
| Elmer West acted as director and
Leland Dunn was director of the
RED Bird March" in the second act.
During the intermission between the
two acts the audience was highly
entertained by little Miss Marlyn
Greenberg and also "The Boy Who
Suffered and the Girl Who Lisped," !"
by Miss Rachel Morris and Vaughn
Moore, Jr., was much enjoyed. "At
the Circus" by Miss Doris Long and
Armell Long in the last act was al
so very much enjoyed, and we would
like to give the full details of the re-
citaI, but as that is impossible, will
say each one did remarkably well
showing a great deal of hard work
on the part of both Mrs. Dunn and
her pupils. AS we stated two weeks
ago the recital was for the benefit
of the Selbyville and Frankford Vol
unteer Fire Company and the pro-
ceeds amounted to about $37. The
box of candy to be given to the pu-
pil who sold the most tickets went
to Miss Louise Brasure, she having
sold 40. The people of the cOmmun-
ity join the fire company in ex-
pressing their thanks and apprecia-
tion to Mrs. Dunn for the liberal do
nation and for her untiring efforts
during the past few weeks in order
to make the entertainment a sue
cess.
