annual exhibition given by the SCHOOLS.
The performance throughout exclteo
unusual interest among those present,
who listened attentively TO the efforts OF
the scholars, and the frequent rounds OF
snnlause which greeted the little folks,
proyed beyond doubt that they nave
been in good hands the present term OF
the school, and that their training mas
been in no wise neglected At one end
of the, auditorium q stage had been
erected, from which the pupils
delivered their oIstions, recitstions,
etc. which was plent,tully pro-
vided with curtains, after the style
of a modern opera house, though on
smaller scale. To crlticise the perform
ance would not, perhaps. be just, wnen
we consider that the parties to be crltl-
cised are but school children, and not be-
ing acquainted with their school lives,
we might possibly discriminate in favor
of persons not entitled to such disc'iml'
nation, or might c,nsure scholar VINO
was we'll up in his or her part for the
opportunities they had had, and who
really deserved praise instead OF censure,
Therefore we de,ist from any attempt at
criticism, but merely give the pro-
grsmme, with slight mention Of some
few of the scholars whose efforts, perhaps,
are deserving OF special mention.
