SCHOOL HOUSE DOORS ARE SHUT
The Last Bell For This Year Has
Called the Children to Work.
The school houses in Norfolk are
closed. At 4 o'clock this afternoon the
doors of all the buildings , from the
Washington school to the Grant , were
locked up tight and not a soul , except
the janitors , will enter again for work
until a Monday morning in the far
away , distant September. This after
noon flocks of children who go to school ,
from the tiny tots of preliminary grades
to the pretty nearly young ladies with
skirts covering their shoe tops and al
most young men who are learning to
shave , gathered around their teachers'
desks in an informal way and were
given collections of report cards which
have recorded what they did and what
they didn't do throughout the term.
They drew out the rulers and books and
notes that their own desks have con
cealed during the many months just
gone , and went away. The little fol
lows who have dropped marbles ( on the
floor in school hours , were given back
their "commies" and carnelians , which
they really never expected to see again ,
and the girls were allowed to take home
the dolls and toys that they wanted to
play with when they should have been
working.
Last night the juniors of the high
school closed their year with , a nifty
program as follows :
Instrumental Solo Jessie Drebert.
