To the Editor Of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The distinguishing features of this lady
whose death We record were such as to in
spire sentiments of the most heartfelt sorrow
at her untimely exit. Unknown to fame. yet
she possessed those sterling qualities of heart
which endeared her to all with whom she
came in contact. Possessing bright and
happy disposition, and endowed with that
rare gift, a beautiful voice for singing her
society was often sought by those who loved
to hear the songs of Zion. Having calm
and abiding trust in her Saviour. she was one
of those rare spirits who was willing TO per-
form the little duties of life, trusting Him to
lead her step by step. When in health she
was rarely absent from the sanctuary The
class meeting was her especial delight, and
her testimony for Jesus, given with that sim
pie, child like confidence, showed her faith
TO be matured beyond her years She was
one of whom it could be truly said the angels
loved. She has gone from us to JOIN that
plorifed host to sing redeeming love. The
memory of her life win not soon beforgotten,
and the cheerful trust in her Saviour viii
ever be an incentive to holy living to those
who knew her best Y. &. Y.

Public Schools.

Two receptions were held yesterday after
noon at the Greenwich avenue school, in
rooms 3, Miss Kate Smith teacher, and 4,
Miss Edith E. johnson, teacher both largely
attended by parents and friends. Among
those present were Superintendent Parish,
Mr. Zunder, of the Board of Education, Rev.
G. H. Williams, Attorney J. P. cleveland
The exercises were most creditable to the
ladies in charge and the able principal, Mr.
Burton. Mr.. Burton informs us that he is
having three of these receptions per week in
the schools under his charge, viz, the Wash
ington West, Carlisle, Greenwich avenue and
Hallock, which have sittings as follows
Washington 600, West 200, Carlisle 200,
Greenwich avenue 200, Hallock 3Oo-total,
1,5o0. The average attendance at this sea-
son of the year is somewhat less At the
exhibitions yesterday the interest and eager
ness eyinced by the children was highly
pleasing feature. The teachers seem to have
made study attractives, wholesome emulation
Is excited and all are wide awake in the high
way of knowledge A method of teaching
which does away with routine and machine
business and enlists the hearts of the pupils
is something worthy of praise. Mr.. Burton
made some remarks at the close of the exer-
cises and called upon Mr.. Parish He was
glad to see such an array of parents and
friends of the pupils, the room crowded to
oVeriowing. He was much pleased to see
such proficiency in writing among the young
folks. Two years ago, we are Informed,
writing was not taught to very young pupils
In our schools. 1t was withheld until pupils
had attended school for several years. Now
pupils in school year or two begin to
learn to write. Specimens of the writing of
the pupils in these rooms were exhibited to
the visitors Some of the pupils had attained
surprising proficiency The Oldest pupils in
the rooms are not over eight or nine The
| best work was very fine and would put old
heads out of conceit with their handwriting
| Mr.. Parish spoke with satisfaction of the
practice in various of the rooms of having
pupils memorize and repeat short familiar
| quotations from the writings of eminent
men, poets, sages, etc. 4; also of the Ian
guage lessons, in which the teacher takes a
topic suited to the age of the pupils, makes
| enquiries and stimulates the pupils to talking
on the subject the exercise being profitable
and enjoyable. Remarks were also made
by Mr.. j. P. Cleaveland on the proficiency
shown in writing by such young pupils as
| those before him. and commencing the early
| instruction of youth in penmanship.
Mr.. Burton added a few remarks,
calling attention to the value of enlisting
the heart of the pupil in his studies and of
| the value of the DupiI's MISUNDERSTANDING the
| reasons why and wherefore of facts taxing
the memory. Receptions take place next
week on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday in
the Hallock street school At the close of
the session in room 4, a little girl, Lila Fish
er, in very charming fashion gave two reel
| tations
