What right has the school Board to have separate
schools for lads and lassies2 We shall see.
1t Is also stated that the same awful authority

children. Here are two terrible wrongs existing
and yet not single city journal has dared to
raise its printed voice in opposition.
Seriously now: Have not the authorities as
much law to separate the colors as to separate
the sexes? Undoubtedly. Let our recalcitrant
colored people over this proposition leisurely

that their rights have not been alb idged by a

passed from the grade Of individual profess

The next step, the foundation Of colonies, so to
speak. and the transm ission OF the hereditary
trait from one generation Of tramps to the
next, has even been taken in several different
portions of the country.
This is very notably the ease in q nsighbor-

Of that city represent that in IL Immediate Vi

Thanksgiving Day, and which, upon that occa-
sion, is rendered homage not less rsverentisl
than that the old Egyptian gave to his ibis.
There are sometimes Incidents resulting from
the feast, in which paregorio and ginger, and
other such drugs, are used but these are neither
necessary nor have they sacramental chars cter.
From the dullness that possessed the streets
and public places yesterday we assume that the
day was thus celebrated in the majority Of house.

to observe it. Now that we have put on record
all that is necessary to enlighten the coming
''Ssndwich Islander," we will write for our con-
Temperatures. There was service in all the d fer.
ent churches, which were visited by respectable
congregations in pout OF numbers. At Trinity
Church a new departure for this city was made,
under the direction Of DR.. Thompson, the rector
in charge. He introduced there the custom pre-
vsng in the North of decorating the church
with flowers. fruits and vegetables, and the dis
play was very tasteful and beautiful. The idea is
good one and the decora ions were very appro-
pirate.
Now that the days of our humiliation are pass
cd, and that OF deliverance has come, we know
that Thanksgiving Day will become one that our
people will religlo1sIy observe The change Of
popular feeling was shown yesterday, and with
our increasing prosperity this will grow stronger
with the years.
