Probably as interesting a departm ent, or rather, as much enjoyed as any by the visitors, were the horse and dairy barns. The teacher of agriculture, as well as the dairyman, had their respective details on hand and went to a great length explaining the working of the two departments. Especially interesting was the dairy. Then the large farm, garden, orchard, berry patches, etc., with hardly a weed to be seen, fence corners clean, well cultivated land and splendidly growing crops, all made a splendid showing and a “ h it” with the sight-seers. Immediately after dinner the girls and visitors made a tour of the boys’ quarters, with each boy “ at attention” by his bed. The three dormitories were at their best and every room and departm ent looked well. All of the athletic and other trophies were on display in the parlors of Mitchell Hall. The cleanly and immaculate condition of the buildings, together with the Mission furniture in the parlors and halls and music-rooms gave a cozy and pleasant appearance. The school building was visited by all. In every classroom an exhibit had been prepared and the time allotted to go through this department was all too short. The room of Miss F lint had an especially large and worthy exhibit. All of the teachers, how ever, did well. B A N D CONCERT T he school band gave a concert in the auditorium .

E N T E R T A IN M E N T On Tuesday night the regular annual entertainm ent was given in the auditorium , which consisted of a play, “ Rip Van W inkle,” and a vocal esthetic ensem ble. The auditorium was filled. Mrs. Brace drilled the play and Mrs. McCrosson the ensemble. This en tertainm ent was hurriedly arranged in lieu of an operetta which had to be postponed by reason of those who had practiced for same enlisting in the army and navy. It was well rendered, however, and up to the average of school entertainm ents. Mrs. Rosenberger acted as pianist. The colored lights and general ef fect was very pleasing and artistic.
