THE YEAR BOOK Lower School Notes HE Lower School has been unusually active this year. A delightful Valen- tine Party which was most kindly given by Miss Smith, was enjoyed by the First and Second Grades. The afternoon was spent with games, refreshments, and a Valentine box. The play which the Third and Fourth Grades successfully presented, displayed the effort they must have put into it. The scenes from Ivan- hoe presented by the Fifth and Sixth Grades in the spring, were done with a great deal of spirit and ability. In the fall, the Seventh and Eighth Grades enter- tained their friends with a very finished production of What Men Live By by Tolstoi. Each part was portrayed with remarkable poise, and Betty Wood, who took the part of the Devil, was exceptionally good. Many of the costumes were made by the girls with the assistance of Mrs. Howell. On April 15, Miss Head's School challenged the Lower School to a basketball game, and, although our girls were defeated, it was after a good fight. There is promising material in the lower grades and many signs of good acting ability which will be of value in the future Shakespeare plays. We are looking forward to their entrance into the High School and we wish them all kinds of success. YVONNE WINSLOW MARGARET MCKINNEY l72l
