SCHOOL DRILLS
AREVERY FINE
TWO PERFORMANCES NECESSARY
EnierUlnmtut Praised by Large Audi
ence m the Rest of Its Kind
Y.str UlTtn He-e.
One of tbe Bnest exhibition of drill
ever given in Oregou was presented
at tbe opera bouse last Friday after
noon and eveuing. At first tbe date
was tet for the evening, tut tbe tick
ets were all sold and people were
clamoring foi more, ao tbe commit
tee in charge deoided to have mati
nee to aooommodate the great crowd
which came. Ibe opera house was
packed at botb performances.
Word ounnot etptesi onougb praise
tor the teachers lu charge ot the play.
Ibey worked haid with untiring labor
aud success is surely oertaiu when tbe
work Is so perfectly planned. Credit
Is due to tbe following instruotois:
Misses Hicks, Willis, Eaileand all the
teachers of tbe primary grades.
Hood River orchestra gave a abort
musierle before the curtain went op
and wbeu It did to show four small
children readlui rhymes out of a
Mother (loose book.
In a short time Miss Vera WillUnis,
lu the cotume of Mother Uoose, ar
rived and promised tbe children a
peep of the people ot whom tbey bad
been retdiug. So with a wave of ber
niagio wand tbe different characters
cams fortb all dressed to represeut
their part Jack Horner with bia pie,
Jack with bis bumped bead and Jill
with the pail, Little Ro Peep with
her shepherd's crook, little liny lilue,
Jaok Spiatt aud bis wife, tbe Queen
ot Hearts and her husband, tbe Knave
of Hearts, Simple Simon, the Bride
from London hi ought borne In a
wheelbarrow aud the old woman with
all her cblldreu were there, and what
a bappy lot they all were. At tbe
end of the act the children all snug
song, the different verses of it all be
iug nursery rhymes.
The seooud drill was oue planned
for rosn buds and, Indeed, tbe 16 chil
dren resembled rosea with their tittle
pink dressos and pink ribbons in
their bair, and tbe skill with wblob
tbey preseutnd tbetr ruler drill show
ed the wise, careful and judioious
training of their teacher, Misa Helen
Dietz, one of tbe lavorite primal y
teachers. Tbe little girls all sang
tbeir motion toug and demonstrated
it well. Miss Rradley acooinpauied
them on the piano,
To Misies Stewart aud Ulynn un
stinted praise should be given for tbe
exoellnnt way in which twelve girls
taken from tbe fourth aud fifth grades
gave a tainhorlun drill, iu time with
tbe music played by Miss llragg.
Ibe girls all wore white dresses, white
shoes aud stockings and white rib
bons, all looking very dainty and
sweet.
The next was an exhibition ot Ten
nyson's favorite drill, winding tbe
May pole, lustexd of using the colors
of tbe rainbow, tbe girls were pa
triotic and used red, while aud blue
streamers, wearing white dresses. The
perfeot winding of tbe pole in the
many dillerent ways showed incessant
tutoring under tbo capable instruc
tion ot Miss Eby. Viola Niobolsou
accompauied them on tbe piano.
The exhibition following tbe flag
drill showed plainly that the sixteen
gills bad been very carefully trained
by Miss lllnkle, aud was exhibited
witb military perfection. The girls
were all gowned in white with red,
white aud bluo suslics across their
ohests and tied underneath tbolr arms
at tbe waist. Each gill can led two
American (lags. Every motion show
ed tbe girls graceful and obedient,
tor no ouo unlets of an obedient na
ture could have performed each move
ment so perfectly.
The next drill, under tbe splendid
leadoiebip of Prof. Crouse, forced the
audience to hulieve that after all boys
oau be graceful if tbey try hard
enough. Fourteen boys were dressed In
khnki colored overalls witb sunflowers
made ot green, yellow and brown tis
sue paper pinned on tbeir ankles.
knees, shoulders and chests, and their
faces wore tbe liveliest looking sun
flowers tbe reporter baa ever seen.
Each boy wore a rudle of sunflower
petals around bis face, bad a sun
flower at tbo back of bis head and
cartied green wands witb sunflowers
at the top of them. Tbe drill, which
was marched to music played by Miss
tiragg, was perfeot.
Tbo fan drill exhibited so beautiful
ly showed tbe audienoe that even
though uone of tbe sixteen girls iu it
were old enough to he voted upon as
belles of Hood Kiver, in a few years
any one of them can very easily be
chosen for queen. Miss blte cer
tainly deserves hearty thanks for the
excellent way in which the girl shew
ed her good training. Xberu were
eight paiis of girls dressed in the tul-
lowing colors, eacn carrying a Ian io
match her bowii Pink, oreen. blue J
yellow, red and white. The graceful
motions made with tbe fans, tlm har
mony of the dilterent color mil tbe
fc fleet nf tbe lights thrown on them
was a thing ot beauty. Mis- Nuwtoo
pl-iyed tor them.
The laat drill was one wl M Ih.Iimi
cluhs given by Ave w ll-drilifd
gut, taught by Miss 'i-hntk
llicra was not a single - our h.i :
demonstrated what excella- t :ii :
will do. The girls gave a ti,i.- xh'.l.i
tion and kept perfect tiuir t.i ti.it-if
