After a chorus, Superintendent

Tide procession of seventy-five
marching children made a. pretty

every number was due to the
painstaking care of Mesdames

ing and Miss Esther Hickman,
under whose direction the pro-
gram was arranged and carried
out.
Two selections which gave es-
'pecial pleasure ymre the recita-

wonderfully talented in elocution,

Fold,” by Inez Snow, whose voice
shows promise of great things.
