CROWN POINT INKLINGS SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Some very entertaining, as weil as educational features on our pro¬ gram this year included lectures on magic, health, Indians, and other interesting events . Among our noted visitors was Mr. Edgar C. Raine, who lectured and showed us some picturesque and historical slides of Alaska. Another interesting lecturer was Leon Albert. He brought with him beautiful furs of animals found in Venezuela, as well as many inter¬ esting facts about that country. He evidently left an impression on some of us (perhaps some of you girls noticed the boys staring at you). Mr. Wysong also gave an inter¬ esting lecture on conservation, illus¬ trating his talk with slides. Many of us have learned how to take better care of our health after the impressive lectures by our own EVA DUTTON Junior High School English and Mathematics Ypsilanti State Normal, Valparaiso University, Chicago University. “In her tongue is the law of kind- HAZEL SMITH Junior High School Arithmetic and Social Science, Tri-State College, Indiana University, Chicago University. “Whatever you do, do wisely, and think of the consequences.” ELLA BLACKSTONE “A work of kindness is seldom rpoken in vain.” FRED MECKLENBERG “He enjoys the luxury of doin; good.” Dr. Weis. He lectured and showed us moving pictures on preventing disease and preserving our health. Our Indian friend, whom we went to the Community Building to see, tried to interest us and make us more acquainted with his people. He brought with him many Indian Costumes, weapons, utensils, etc., and told us of his tribe’s life, gam¬ es, ways of making a living and so forth. The famous magician, Hoffman, who also entertained us at the Community Building, amused us all Both the high school and the grade school enjoyed his performance. By pulling live rabbits out of empty hats, money out of the air and off people’s noses, and many other such tricks, he succeeded in keep ing us all mystified but merry. A member of our faculty, Mrs. Seamonson, also helped to enter¬ tain us on Lincoln’s birthday. She gave a delightful reading of the play “Abraham Lincoln” by Drink- water. “The Singer of Naples” was a ro¬ mantic comedy which took place in Italy. Fred Krull had the lead¬ ing role as the “Singer”, Gladys Liffick was a poor little gypsy girl in love with Fred; Jane Thompson was a rich society matron who gave Fred his “chance”. Others who did a very good bit in the play were, Joel Davis, Allen Danks, Jim Louis, Walter Yurgilas, Caroline Johnson, Elizabeth Rettig, Doris Rose, Gil¬ bert Wright. “A man without a country” visit¬ ed us and told us of his unusual ex¬ periences. George Elias was his name; but what his country is, ho does not know. He has just been made a citizen of the United States and has been re-united with his mother after years of separation. His talk was very effective and was enjoyed by every one.
