specimens of the engravers art, to
which we invite the attention Of our

Our correspondent is in error in stat

by the Scholars of the Woodstock
High School. They have given many
excellent exhibitions heretofore

ure that we learn that the students of
the Woodstock High School have de-
cided to sweep away the monotony that
too often characterizes the closing term
of school, in which all have diligently
laborcd for an education.
They announce that an exhibition
which eau hardly fail to be of profit,
aud the source of much pleasure,
will by them be given. A truly noble
object prompts the action, and shows
that they are earnestly working for the
advancement of their School. This, we
understand, is a matter wholly original
with the students, and something that
they heretofore have been strangers to,
but is an advancing step from the slow
old system, and we trust that now aud
forever the stone is cast from the bag
1t certainly reflects much credit upon
those who have ventured step in front,
and not step to the rear: and we
hope soon TO see the Woodstock High
School take stand second to none,
for truly no place, to our mind, can offer
to the earnest student more desirable
spot, where quiet, and beauty are ever
to be found. We trust this little enter
prise will receive the attention it will
certainly merit. w. c. A.
