YI our lNNi Hun The Junior Class Presented this pageant of music, drama, and dance in the Enfield School Auditorium on November 11, 1948. The pageant was the work of Mrs. Bellamy's history classes, and was directed by her. About one hundred characters were used, including the dances and the choir. The entire town cooperated in the production. Some costumes were rented while others we re made by the mothers and high school girls. Much research was done in order that the characters might appear au- thentic. Since this play depicted life in the Enfield of colonial days, much history was taught bythis project, and there was interest, for the pupils will long remember it. The audience was the largest ever to attendaplay, the reason being that it was about their town, community, and was pro- duced and acted by their boys and girls.
