To the Editors of the Enterprise: You would accommodate us very much by announcing through the columns of your “little sheet” that on the 4th of July the public school this district, No. 45, will have a grand exhibi- tion, consisting of speeches, tableaux, etc., etc., by the scholars at the town of Cooney, to be followed at night by a general round up of the bucks and ladies and a grand ball for the benefit of the school. During the day the stars and stripes will be hoisted over the school house, while the scholars sing “My Country ’Tis of Thee.” This we believe to be the first flag raised over a school house in New Mexico and we propose it to stay as long as the school is in session, ever anon.
