SCHOOL EXAMINATION A
representative of the BANNER
visited the public schools on
Thursday for the purpose of
witnessing the examination.
The first room visited was that
of Prof. Estell, being the high
est classes in the schools. The
exercises were problems in
geometry and algebra, which
were worked on the blackboard
with the greatest facility and at
the same time fully explained
by the pupils, giving the rules
and an analysis of the working.
A number Of prominent citizens
we're present who spoke in the
highest terms ofthe proficiency
of the pupils. The next room
visited was that of Miss Eliza
Baker, who has charge of the
primary department. The lit
tie children were recitirg les
sons in the second reader. The
proficiency exhibited was quite
marked as some Of the scholars
only commenced their A B C's
last September and who now
read in the second reader. Miss
Baker is painstaking young
lady and deserving of great
praise. Mrs. Louise Wilkins
has charge of the next room to
Miss Baker, she was examining
classes in elementary arithme-
tic, reading spelling, etc. The
pupils appeared to be well up in
their lessons and acquitted
themselves very creditably.
Samples Of writing on states
were also exhibited which show
ed remarkable progress. We
learn from persons who have
witnessed the examination in the
other rooms that the pupils
have all made highly satisfac-
tory progress. The cXamina-
tons are very rigid and the
answers given by the pupils
prompt.

The picnic at "Campbell's
Lake" took place on last Friday
evening. The company arrived
about 9 o'clock, but as the
moon did not rise till about ten
an hour was pleasantly spent at
Mr.,,Campbell's residence. The
moon having risen in al her
splendor the company repaired
to the Beautiful lake" We
amused ourselves il boa;-riding
and talking. Miss Jessie Carter
and Mrs. Bledsoe favored the
company with delightful music
on the guitar. Mrs. Rutherford
gave us a sentimental song and
Mr.. A. G. Carter all instrument
tai piece. DR.. H. B. Hill proved
himself the most expert oarsman
and blistered his hands. The
ladies bestowed many compli-
mclts on the doctor, and SYM
pathised with him on the bis
tiers some having had a similar
experience, gained in Smelling
corn for mill. Some of us were
from the tackwoods and had |
never seen a boat before. Sew
eral fell in the mud but none |
fell in the water, which spoiled |
the fun. For all this pleasure
we are indebted to Messrs. w. |
7. Hunt, and J. L. Jones. We
hope we will again have the
honor of attending another
moonlight" on the lake. The
company dispersed at II
o'clock; all enjoyed themselves.
We arrived at our destination
in the backwoods at daylight,
and spent the next day in
sleep. WILDCATS.

good.
