Public Schools to Give Washington Program.

The pupils in the south half of the primary building will give a Washington program Thursday afternoon in the Christian church beginning promptly at two o’clock. The public and patrons are cordially invited to attend this entertainment. It was very gratifying to the teachers in charge of the Lincoln program, given last week, to have such a large number of visitors present and it is hoped that even a larger audience will be present at the Washington program.
