Show Millard Academy Notes. The program rendered by the student body last Wednesday morning was educational as weil as interesting. A number of the girls and Miss Eryring are busy organizing organiz-ing an Economics club. A debating debat-ing club has also been organized and is now busy. Nearly all of the examinations for the last quarter of this year are over and most of the students seem to realize that only two months of the school year of 1914 and 15 remains, and appear to be determined to get all the good possible from the short time re. maining. The girls are waiting with great expectations for the next Student body program as the boys are to entertain them during dur-ing the Theology period of that day. The girls have made an excellent ex-cellent demonstration of their entertaining en-tertaining ability a number of times, and are therefore anxious to see what the boys can do. One would judge by observing the actions of a few however that their minds are far from their school work, but we are glad that these students in the Millard Academy are not many and that a great majority of the students are deeply interested and are enjoying their mork. We feel that thus far the school year has been a successful one and that it will continue to be so until un-til the last. Mr. Cosgrave entertained the students in a pleasing manner for an hour Tuesday morning by a lecture on the works of Shakespeare. Shake-speare. He recited many very beautiful extracts from the various vari-ous works of this great author. The students were especially interested in-terested in the speech of Mark Anthony and other selections from the play of Julius Caesar as most of them have studied, and are studying this classic in connection con-nection with their school work. Owing to a rush of business in the office this week, we are unable un-able to print a number of news items, and write-ups, among which is the play given by the Junior Class of the Millard Academy on Saturday evening. The play was very entertaining, and we invite the Juniors to give us more of the same kind in the near future. |
