Douglas Tomlin | The pupils of the fifth and sixth grades, with the help of pupils from other grades, gave a Christmas program on the night of December the 18th in the school auditorium. The theme of the program brought out the real meaning of Christ- mas. Dolls from all countries of the world explained to the Clown what Christmas meant in his country. No satisfactory explanation was made until the Angel doll explained the birth of the Christ Child. | Miss February’s Birthday Party | The pupils from Mrs. Richburg's room gave a very enjoyable val- entine program. The stage was the setting of a large cake decorated with valentines. When all the guests had arrived, streamers were pulled, one at a time. Out of the cake came a famous person whose birthday is in February. 30 Junior-Senior Banquet Invocation Reverend J. M. Thomas “At the End of a Perfect Day” Melody Belles Introduction of speaker A. J.
