ham helped with the accompani
ments. Each teacher trained her
own group, and the Barrow moth

Singleton was narrator and guide.
His fellow fifth-grader, Mac Ar
nold, painted the striking' mural
before which the children per
formed.
The participants in the festival
must certainly have gained much
knowledge of other countries and
their customs. Unwittingly they
did something else. They furnish
ed the strongest sort of argument
for at least one school auditorium
in Athens where its children can
perform.
This writer was one of scores
of parents who could not get in
to the crowded lunch room where
Miss Julia Smith And Mr. H. M
Kelly To Wed On June Sixth
the show had to be given. Some of
the brightness and charm of the
performance could be glimpsed
ihrough a window, but a screen of
course dimmed even that view,
1t is to be hoped that the Athens
Hl;nsh School, when it gets its new
auditoriwm; if it gets one first,
will invite the participants in the
1949 May Day Festival of Barrow
School to give a repeat perfor
mancé. Such an evening will cer
tainly be welcomed, not only by
the persons who did not get in
last Thursday, but by many
others w(;:o realized that the pa
geant had entirely too much merit
to be given for the families of only
one school. The theme and pre
sentation were worthy of 1 much
wider audience.
Mrs. John Lee Smith announces
the eniagement of her daughter,
Julia Elizabeth, to Harold Malcom
Kelly, of Rochelle. The wedding
will take place on June sixth, at
the home of the bride-elect’s sister,
Mrs. Phillip Harris in Lexin]&ton.
Miss Smith attended eson
Academy, Lexington, and later
went to business school in Athens.
She is now employed by the First
National Bank of Athens. She is
a member of the Entre Nous Club
and the Beta Zeta chapter of Beta
Sigma Phi, of which she was re
cently elected treasurer.
Mr. Kelly is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Ernest Louis Kelly of Roch
elle. He graduated from Rochelle
High School and during World
War Il he served with the Navy.
