May Festivities, Newnan Public
Schools.
On Friday morning of last week
Patrons’ Day" was celebrated at the
Temple Avenue and Atkinson Gram
mar Schools, the first, second, third and
fourth grades taking part in the May
Day festivals and interesting exercises,
such as songs and debates, given by
the higher grades.
TEMPLE AVENUE SCHOOL.
At 10:30 Friday morning the teachers
of the four lower grades, Misses Brown,
McCrory,, Condor and Harris, formed
their pupils in groups on the campus of
the school to celebrate with a May
Day festival. A large number of pa
trons and interested friends were
present. The little girls in white
frockB, with blue and pink ribbons, and
the boys in their white suits, made an
ideal picture.
“Kentucky Babe,” and “Scotland’s
Burring Around,” was sung withmuch
gusto and spirit by all four grades, for
the opening number. The regular ex
ercises then followed, led by Miss Mar
garet Reynolds. The perfect time
kept demonstrated the value of their
training in physical culture, as well
as their knowledge of music.
The U. S. flag drill by the second
grade was given generous applause it
being the patriotic note of the festival.
This number was fittingly closed with
the inspiring airs, “Columbia, the Gem
of the Ocean,” and “Dixie.”
The “Dance of Greeting” and “I
See You,” a folk lore song, were given
by the first grade pupils. Everybody
is interested in the pupils of this grade,
and their singing and cunning little
steps in the dance made this one of the
most enjoyable numbers on the pro
gramme.
“The Klappadan’s,” (Danish folk
song,) and “Shoemaker Dance," by
the fourth grade pupils, deserve special
mention. The intricate figures were
danced with the most graceful abandon,
yet keeping perfect rhythm to the
tuneful music, and would have done
credit to older pupils trained in the art.
This number closed the first half of
the morning's entertainment.
Those taking part in the crowning of
the May Queen and May-pole dance
formed in line for the grand pageant-
boys with flags making way for the
queen and attendants, honorary es
corts, and merry maids composing the
royal procession. The queen, Mary
Glover, was lovely in white lace, with
pink ribbons, and her white carriage
was bedecked with pink ramblers
drawn by six handsome little boys clad
in white, who were Masters Salbide
Kestler, Eugene Manget, Hugh Far
mer, Edwin Lovern, Geo. Jackson and
Dan Manget. The honorary escort of
the queen were Alonzo Norris and Da
vid Cuttino.
The throne was lovely and dainty in
white, garlanded in pink ramblers. The
old oaks and weeping willows for a
background enhanced the beauty of the
scene. Master Rawleigh Arnall crown
ed the queen with an appropriate verse,
followed with a response from the
queen. Recitations and songs were
given for the entertainment of the
queen. Twelve little maids carrying
baskets of roses sang, “ We Are the
Merry Maids of the Merry May,” who
were little Misses Annie Bryant, Marian
Arnold, Ruth Stocks, Clara Stevens,
Mary Parks, Mildred Stephens, Char
lotte Dent, Marjorie Seib, Mollie Far
mer, Eleanor Orr, and Lucia Cates.
A recitation by Ellis Arnall was fol
lowed with a song, “The Owl and the
Pussy Cat,” rendered by Mary Rey
nold , Fannie Cole Hollis, Berryman
Goodrum and Alonzo Norris.
This part of the entertainment was
concluded with a May-pole dance, led
by the queen and twenty-four daisy
chain bearers. Before twining the
May-pole with its many-colored rib
bons, a gay folk lore schottishe was
danced around it.
The visitors were then invited into
the building to see the decorations of
the different rooms assigned to the
lower grades. Miss Maggie Brown’s
room (first grade) had blooming plants
grown by the children, and a wall dec
oration of animals in colors.

the programme. It was surprising to
see these little folks dance such diffi
cult figures, with the many changes,
not one getting out of step or tune.
After this dance and Bong all four
grades marched from the building to
the grounds, the third and fourth
grades taking position in front of the
school building, and the first and
second grades forming circles. In
these positions the exercises, combined
with bright songs, were given. A
folk lore dance by the first grade fol
lowed.
The May-pole dance by the third
and fourth grades concluded the open
air entertainment. The attractive
feature of the May-pole dance was
the singing of “0 Where, O Where,
Can My Partner Be.” The third grade
seeking their partners from the fourth
grade caused much merriment. The
May-pole festivities were closed with
the vacation song by all four grades.
The exercises in the building were
well attended. Different programmes,
consisting of recitations, sings and de
bates, had been arranged. The sixth
grade debate was especially fine, the
subject being, "Resolved, That Ericsson
Deserved as Much Credit for the Dis
covery of America as Columbus!’’ The
negative won. Sarah Hudson and
Sarah Askew were among those in the
grade deserving mention for splendid
recitations.
The seventh grade’s programme wai
excellent, and was as follows:
Song, “Summer Fancies,” Agnes
Allen accompanying—By grade.
Recitation, "War Inevitable”—Jas.
Brewster.
Recitation, “An Old Sweetheart of
Mine” —Myrtle Arnall.
Recitation, "A Hero in Gray’’ —
Maurice Wood.
Instrumental solo- Miriam Hubbard.
Recitation, “An Angel Child” —Mary
Crane.
Recitation, "Objection to Mexican
War”—Chas. Griffith.
Violin solo—Thos. Cole.
Recitation, "Devotion to Duty”—
Geo. McBride.
Instrumental solo—Ruth Field.
Debate, “Resolved. That Women
Should Vote.” Affirmative: Mary Barge
and Elizabeth North. Negative: L. H.
Hill and Billie Gearreld. The affirma
tive won. Appreciation should be ex
pressed for the excellent paper and
logical conclusions rendered so convinc
ingly by Master L. H. Hill.
Worthy of mention is that Master
Geo. McBride made the yearly honor
roll, and Master Chas. McBride was
second, missing it by one half day.
All the rooms were filled with at
tractive drawings, beautiful borders,
and a number of growing plants. The
walls in the rooms of the higher grades
were hung with drawings and speci
mens of the year’s work.
The first grade room, Miss Wana-
maker teacher, had a Dutch freize of
wind mills in the background, with
groups of Dutch boys and girls cut and
colored by the children and pasted on
the board in dancing postures. The
second grade room, Miss Powers teach
er, was also decorated with Dutch ef
fects, and was artistic from every point
of view. The drawings were very
pretty, representing seasons typical of
the school months. The third grade
room, Miss Snead teacher, with a field
of daisies to form a freize, and innu
merable butterflies with outstretched
wings pasted among the flowers, gave
a lovely effect. The fourth grade
room. Miss Johnson teacher, was very
pleasing in its decorations of hand
made posters, aside from the regular
school work. Among the posters de
serving special mention were those in
Japanese design, with pink, rose, laven
der and gray making a beautiful har
mony of colors. Other decorative pos
ters were the cocoons, butterflies,
spring and corn. E. S. G.

Beautiful

In Newnan
Burns
V
Only a few days since one of the most beautiful homes in Newnan burned
to the ground. Maybe you were there. I was, and as I mosied from one side to
the other and watched that beautiful residence go up in flames I observed a
friend of mine. I stepped up to ply him with questions, (fire insurance is my
business, you see!) when someone behind me said “it was fully covered,”
It is the business man—the real economist, who constructs houses, builds
railroads, irrigates the waste places, and sees into the future, at the same time
protecting his happy home. If that which labor creates and human hearts hold
precious some day goes up in flames you then, with all sincerity, will say FIRE
INSURANCE is not the most expensive investment the world has ever taken on,
but an absolute necessity.
We’ll Insure Your Home To-Day; It May Burn To-night.
