“The Windmills of Holland,” an operetta in two acts, will be given by the fifth, sixth, and seventh grades of the Demonstration School of Cullowhee State Normal. This production will be a feature of the Commencement Week in the school and will be given at 7:30 o’clock Thursday night of March 19th.
Thirty children will present a true picture of Dutch Life in the picturesque dress and wooden shoes of Holland. The story centers around the scheme of an American salesman for tearing down the old windmills of Holland and replacing them with modern machinery. The love of home and customs triumphs and the old windmills remain.
