Show E. S. A. NOTES F. M. Reynolds, Sr. and wife visited our school Tuesday afternoon. Bro. Reynolds has always been a loyal supporters sup-porters of our school. The visitors were considerably taken up with our pedagogy peda-gogy clnss. Hyrum Rasmussen and Clarence.Clair visited usThursday. Mr. Rasmussen is an old stuientof this institution having attended at-tended school at the time Bro. S. A. Harris taught. Ha said here we might gain a testimony of the gospel. We are enjoying good healthy athletics ath-letics these days. The large auditorum has been converted into a gymnasium We will be prepared to meet any neighboring neigh-boring basket-ball team in the near future, as well as neighboring wrestlers We have a good mat 12 by 14 feet, and are making daily use of it. The faculty played basket-ball with the school last Saturday. We are sorry, but they were beaten by a score of 13 to 19, in favor of the school. Bro. Dyches got a black eye but he skinned the other fellow's nose in return. Come again, faculty, we will teach you how to play. If work will make anything a success, the opera will be successful. Bro. Driggs begins at seven in the morning and is busy every hour of the day and until 9 o'clock at night drilling the different choruses of the production. Musicians depend nore upon the support sup-port and appreciation of the public than do the members of any other profession We expect the people to patronize the opera to a greater extent than any entertainment en-tertainment which has previously been put on in Castledale. Probably no undertaking of the kind has ever been put on here which has required so much hard work and drilling and so great an expense. All told the production will cost over $200. Some ot this is being met by the Btudents themselves in the purchase of their own costumes. They are willing to do this to pay for the training they receive. Is the public willing will-ing to attend the opera not only ot.ee but as many times as it is put on in order to show their appreciation of the great artistic uplift which it" is giving to the community life? When a man of Bro. Driggs' ability comes to work among us the public should encourage him and make him believe that he has struck the right field. Those who do not follow him in hislong day.s walk from 8 o'clock in the morning until 9 and 10 at night do not realize how he is overworking himself in order to perform the great task that is before him. Make up your mind to see the opera twice. You cannot absorb half the beauties of the production by seeing it only once. Remember the dates, Saturday, February Feb-ruary 10, and Friday, February 16 i . . |
