B Education Week was noted at the ome Public Scheol by a special inviâ€" ation to parents and friends to attend on Friday afternoon and look over the schcol, the pupils‘ work and make the acijuaintanes of the teachers. The Dome School, like â€"S. Poreupin> Sschool, is friendly and homelike, and the invitation was accepted by nearly every parent at the Dome and Dome Extension. ‘ They were received by Miss Lynch and her staff of teachets and made most welcome. One point noted by all was the patâ€" riotism displayed everywhere in posâ€" ters and placards made by the pupils. Miss I. Smith‘s kindergarten pupils were having a lovely time ‘"acting‘" a little story for the benefit of their proud parents, and Miss Dean‘s room was the centre of another group who were amusedly and interestedly segsing the story of Snow White put on by the pupils. Costumes, singinz. and the children‘s delight in their own perforâ€" mance marked the little play with imâ€" portance. Little Magdalen Smith made a charming hersine and the curâ€" tainâ€"raisers were by n» means the least important personazes in the play! Laughter from Miss Lynsh‘s room proved that the reading o; the j;erssonal jokes in the school paper were mefting with the approval they deserved. Muâ€" rals in this room, too, were wond?râ€" fully well done. Some excellent specimens of needle and wood craft were on exhibition, and gained her share of admiration. Miss Hammond and Mr McDermil had their share in the teaching of this. The final event of the interesting afternoon was a Scottish programme put on by the senior pupilis. A little sketch Oof the life of Sir Walter Scott was given by Mildred Mitâ€" chell and Beulah Lang gave a life of Robert Burns. Some really sweet â€" singingâ€""Flow, gently Sweet Afton," and "Bonnie Dunâ€" dee," followed and two boys Jack Philâ€" lips and Jim Macdonald, gave some really good violin playing of old Scotâ€" tish melodiesâ€"‘Auld Lang Syne‘ ‘Comâ€" in‘ thro‘ the Rye‘, finishing with "Wish Me Lauck" and "There‘ll Always be an England." To the piano accompaniment of little Clara Campagnola, who played reâ€" markable well, six smaller girls gave a Six little dassies in Scottish plaid kilts did an excellent Highland Fling: Phyllis Leiterman Mona Richardson, June Allan, Virginia James, Doris Mitâ€" chell and Pauline Burke.
