If theye are any in this city who believe the scheol appropriation should be cut or neot inereased they had better at- tend this pageant tomight and leagn the reason why this should not ke done. Two persons aro the leads in the entire pageant, one ealed’ Any City whose part is tuken by Dwight” M- tha and the other, Education, with Virginja Slade depieting this charac- ter. Any-City is studying the pro- poted tax levy for the year and con- sidering the question of gutting down the appropriations. He finally de- cides to cut the appropriation for eduycation and then falls into a deep slumber. In his slumber Education appeary carrying a light Through the following eleven glimmers in the play Educatiem shows Any City im- portant developments of edueation. Of partiewlar interest is the one in regards to the upderpaid teacher who i= employed to teach the children and instead veritably turns the school room into a roughhouse room where the children rule and not the teacher. It has*been strongly emphasized with- in the past few weeks during _the “Save Our Schools’” campaigns that many teachers are not' eyen High school graduates but must be em- ployed as the profession has not been made attractive. Upon awakening from his dream, Any City, realizes that the cost and dangers of ignor- ance are far greater in the end than the cost of cdueation. Much credit should be given those who worked to secure the pageant for New Britain and to Mra. A, C Gulilford Miss A. E. Townsen and | Miss Ella Fallon, who were in charge of selecting the cast and responsible for rehcarsals. Through their untir- ing efforts the pageant was made the greatest edueational feature ever pre- sented in this eity. The Grammar sehool hall was taxed to eafacity last evening and should be tonight. Music for the pageant was rendered by the New Britain Symphony orchestra which voluntarily offered its services. Tickets for the affair may be bought {mm; the sehool children or at the door “SKINNAY” CONTEST WINNERS ANNOUNCED Besse-Leland Company Makes Awards to Four Boys for Neatly Com- piled Cartoon Booklets., Announcement has been made the Besse-Leland company o prize winnely in the “Skinnay" test that has been In progress wmeveral months.
