BEAVER DAM. February 9. 1875.
GOOD WORD FOR OUR HIGH SCHOOL.
Mr.. EDITOR 1 visited your pleasant
town some days since, and having few
moments leisure, called at the High
School, of which Prof HAYNES is Princi-
pal. l was astonished to see such large
number of intelligent students, and more
so, to see their facility in solving the
many difficult problems given by the
teachers After remaining as long az
possible with the Professor, l passed into
the apartment of his accomplished assis-
tant, Miss Emma Haynes Here for
while my eyes feasted upon the loveliness
of some of Ohio county's fair daughters,
whom we find possessed of the same ease,
dignity, and thorough understanding as
the first. l predict for this school bril-
liant future, and regret that every yicini-
ty cannot boast of instructors like Profess
sor Haynes and Miss Emma,
OhEAI hAfECIAilONS.
We expect ere long to have completed
beautiful building devoted to educa>
tional interests in our own little town,
one that will fill our hearts with pride,
and in which knowledge can be impaired
to the rising generations for all time to
come.
DOMINATION SENSIBLE.
A slander suit was spoken of short
time since by Colonel Doom, be-
cause he had been called the oldest man
in the town, but after proper correction
he declined to sue. The Colonel has been
considered the most gallant man in the
place, bnt another young man has far sur
passed him, who by name is uncle B
c..
PERSISTENT ROMEO.
Sunday beng regular preaching day in
the neighborhood, he, at an early hour,
called at the house of one of our fairest
daughters, ATTENDED her to church, re-
turned for dinner, and remained till 10
P. M. He was in town next morning, feel
ing better than he has for years, and say
ing-to use his'own expression-Colonel
D. aint no Uhar."
THAT LOST LOVE LETTER.
Your correspondent of last week, ad-
vised certain Mr.. B to examine the
rubbish in the post-office for his lost love-
letter. Procuring a search-warrant, he
opened the trunk OF the postmaster, and
there, to his astonished gaze, lay his lost
letter, and uerbatim copy in the writing
of the official. The truth of the matter
is, both Mr.. BIS are loving the
same lady, and the junior not being as
we'll versed in the art, and seeking to seY.
er the attachment of the couple, laid the
letter aside, and intended to forward with
his signature. Taking into consideration
his early years he will not be prosecu-
ted.
UNCLE JACK BARCLAY.
That affable and congenial gentleman,
has been elected City Assessor, and has
commend a faithful performance of his
duties.
A BEAVER DAM NICE PUFF.
Our town is always on the improve,
and belie.e it is q conceded fact, that
in few years it will be the most im>
portant point on the L. P. IL S. w. rail-
road. We have good business men, who
keep large assOrtments of dry goods on
hand; our groceries are well supplied, and
we have one of the best regulated drug
stores in the Green River country. We
have good Police Judge, a prompt and
efficient Marshal, and Deputy County
Clerk for the town.
PIoUs LABOR THAT DESERVES REWARD.
We are endeavoring to raise large
club for the HERALD, and when we get
this in our midst, will feel confident of
success.
Wishing you profitable year, will
close for the present ANXIOUS.
