CLOSING W EEK AT CH EM AW A
(C o n tin u e d from pag e 1)
the bakery had hundreds of loaves of bread, as well as
fancy baking, on display; the students’ kitchen and
dining hall were in gala attire, and all in condition to
invite an eager crowd; the engine and power house,
ice-making rooms, and plumbing shop, were equally
interesting and well worth a visit; the carpentry de
partments, shoe and harness, and tailor shops all made
splendid exhibits.
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.

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. Following is the
program in full:
