Last Tuesday evening the closing exercises of St. John's Academy was held at the Auditorium which was packed to its full capacity, standing room even being at a premium. The program was a very interesting one and the scholars received well merited applauses from the large and attentive audience.
Much credit is due the good Sisters on their efforts in making the closing exercises of 1903-04 such a grand success. The music rendered on this occasion was of the highest order and showed that each scholar had received careful training at the hands of teachers of more than ordinary ability.
The program was as follows:
Visions of Rest, Baker
Piano A-Misses V. Smith, M. B. Leater and M. Browne. Piano B-Misses L. Thiel and A. Brunner. Violins-Misses L. Brunner, K. Einole, M. Smith, M. Well. Mandolins-Masters S. Benirato, K. Thiel, Clarinet-Master J. Benirato.

"Dobbs' Farm or Rose Fairlee,"
an operetta in three acts, was rendered by the young ladies who acquitted themselves with much admiration.
"Old Glory, or the Boys of '76,"
an operetta in two acts, was participated in by the boys of St. Anthony School who done wonderfully well.
All in all the exhibition this year was a grand success and in some respects superior to any previous effort of the good Sisters.
Among the ladies who liberally contributed their support to make the occasion a successful one special mention is due Mrs. Lilly Satterly.
St. John's Academy, under the management of Sister Antonine, has become one of the leading institutions of learning in Southwest Louisiana, a fact of which the people of Franklin are justly proud. The Academy during the past year has been greatly enlarged and improved, affording much better accommodations to its largely increasing scholars.
The distribution of premiums took place Wednesday morning at the Convent.
