THE INDIANA CENTENNIAL The year 1916 marks the first milestone on the trail over which the State of Indiana is passing, and as a recognition of this milestone nearly every city and town celebrated in some fitting manner. Auburn observed the anniversary in the early part of October. The impcrtant feature of the celebration was the Pageant, given by the High School and Grade Schools of the city at the Ball Park. Pupils from the Grades took part in the first five drills and the last four numbers were given by the High School. Mage on the Cree and Hungarian Grief, two very interesting Folk-Dances, were given by girls from the Freshman class. he Gottland Quadrille, one of the cleverest of the Folk-Dances, was presented by boys and girls from the Freshman and Sophomcre classes. Twenty four. girls from the three upper classes took part in the “‘Goddesses,’’ which was probably the prettiest drill of the Pageant. The last number, and probably the most popular, was the Sword Dance, given by sixteen boys from the upper classes. Several High School girls also took the parts of the Queen’s attendants. The High School and especially the Senior Class can feel proud of? the fact that Miss Mary Baxter, for two years class Principal of the class of 7217, was chosen to play the part of Queen of the Pageant. Kach night the Pageant was closed with the Human Flag, formed by six hundred pupils from the eight grades. For the excellent work done in managing the production and in training the participants, credit is due Mr. F. A. Pribbenow, Physical Director of the Y. M. C. A. and Miss Agnes Jeffrey, instructor of Music and Art in the Public Schools, and Miss Bonnie Seiler, instructor of Domestic Science and Sewing. They were ably assisted by all the Grade Teachers. Mrs. Nellie Zimmerman-Weaver and Miss Lucile Hebel had charge of all the costumes. Altogether the Pageant was by far the finest production of its kind that Auburn has ever seen.
