creditably to themselves and teachers. The

The Delaronde school exhibition was held
at the schoolhouse, commencing at seven
o'clock Z. M. The place was altogether too
small for such purpose, but it was difficult
to obtain at the time larger room in the
town. A partition was taken down, making
two rooms into one; but even then it was
impossible for the very large number of
visitors to find accommodation. The ban
Duet in front of the building was crowded.

stopped UP with spectators. We never saw
so large an assembly before collected in AL
giers. The room was delightfully."- decorated
with rosy wreaths, and Notwithstanding the

men kindly assisted the singing of the
pupils.
