in Composition were under Miss G,,nder-
son the second and fourth hours. Prof.
Kiehle examined but one class. This was
the A in School Economy, the fourth hour.
The classes all passed very satisfactory
examination, showing the resultsof ca reful
teaching and faithful study. The exercises
we're varied and enlivened by songs and
choruses under the direction of Prof.
Rhys. AT the conclusion Prot. K;ehle an
nounced that the different classes had been
graded 40 that only those whose work dur
ing the term had been reported by the
teachers as unexceptionable would be grad
uated or promoted to higher class Some
fell but a little short of the necessary
standard, and by persevering study during
the long vacation, will be able to
sustain, at the beginning Of the next term,
such an. examination as will secure their
promotion step higher. We understand
that three out Of twenty of the A class
failed to come up to the requirements
necessary to graduate. The effect Of this
grading down" will be to secure greater
thoroughness in the teachers sent out from
the school.

ercises were interesting throughout, being
ljudiciously varied, and that their perform.

engaged. 1twould require too much space
to refer to all of them in detail. The essay
'tInfant America" excited almost universal
expressions of commentator for its origi.
nality. The calisthenic exercises we're
quite interesting.
