The Amateur hour program which
was presented last Friday night was
a real success. There were some
stiff necks, sore backs and noses the
following day, but most of the girls
who participated are not over the
after effects. All the dancing and
singing was done under a spotlight
which added very much to the beau­
tiful setting. The Tumbling was
peppy and well done and the girls
enjoyed doing it as much as the
audience enjoyed seeing it. The girls
want to thank the audience for
showing so much interest in the
activities of the school and for at­
tending their Amateur hour pro­
gram.
The High School girls and Miss
Denney wish to thank Mr. Frost for
the spotlight used at the Girl's Pro­
gram Friday night. They also thank
other patrons who loaned costumes,
etc., that helped make the program
a success.
