ORATORS OF THE FUTURE
Declamatory Contest at High
School Evoks Much Interest.
The deolamatory contest held in the
High School Assembly Room on Wed
nesday eveniug was very libeially
patronized. The seating capacity of
the room was taxed to its utmost,
every available space was filled with
extra benches and chairs and standing
room about the doors wai at a pre
mium. Though the program was necessarily
a bit long, yet the best of attention
and interest prevailed.
In the Primary Class (1st, 2d, and
8d gradet) there were 18 contestants
for the medal offered, which after a
very close count by the judges, was
awarded to Lesta Redwiue, of the 3d
grade, East building.
There were eight contestants for
honors in the Grammar School class,
representing the fith, 7th, and 8th
grades Emma I.ooghridge, of the 8th
grade, was given the decision in this
class.
At the close of the program the
medals were delivered by Rev. Evan
j P. Hughes, with a vory interesting
and appropriate briof speech.
1 The contestants, each snd all, ac
quitted themselves well; there were
too many good cues to begin to uame
tli e 3i all. The decision of the judges
was necessarily very close. The pro-
gram was further made pleasing by
piano solos by Clare Kremer and La
costa Mangnm and a violin solo by
. Marion Clark, showing that the
schools have exceptional musical
: talent as well as excellent readers.
