Navy Hill School.
The final exercises and distribution OF
awards to the scholars Of this school, OF
which Miss N. E. Knowles is principal,
took place on Saturday afternoon between
and O'Clock at the First African church.
The building was crowded, and the eXer-
cises very interesting, although the evening
was quite warm. Mayor Kelley, Major AL
fred R. Courtney, OF the School Board Mr..
r. VI. Manly, of the Board Of Aldermen !;
Rev. DR.. Dickinson, Mr.. George D. Wise,
Police-Justice White, and other well-known
citizens were present.
The exercises were very interesting, and
the children displayed degree OF training
that was astonishing. The music was par
ticularly good, especially the duet OF Estellc
James and George Anderson. The soprano
| voice in the duo is doubtless the best in that
group OF schools. There were many fea-
tpres of the programme that were striking
and amusing, but it would take the whole
side OF a newspaper to relate all that the lit
tie ones, and the grown folks too, would
doubtless like to see in print.
