Mr.. Superintendent Bourges and fair crowd of

final charge upon the six hundred of the Fill
more School. The Juveniles however, were not in
the least scared, but faced the music boyfullycame
off without the boodshed and more than the success
Of the Inflated six hundred at Balakava.
The first page of learning had been opened to
them by Miss Page, and its lessons kept in them by
the hammering Of Miss Cooper. After that they had
hard row to hoe under Miss Hoey, and the results
of their labor were carefully stored and kept from

when they came to confront the public, under the

the correctness of their reading and in the readiness
of their answers in grammar, geography and arith-
metic-and where spirit of this kind is visible, it
may be safely set down that all is going we'll The
different classes displayed an admirable degree of
advancement, and the French class, under Nine
