The exercises in this class were opened with
singing, followed by "Welcome," extend

As usual we found the various class rooms
of this school crowded with visitors, and
everybody was pleased. The exercises were
very creditable in the main, though In some
instances the presence Of so many visitors
confused the boys and girls at the black
board, and some were rather slow In work
ing out arithmetieal problems which any
other time would not have given them the
least trouble. The great feature was the
exhibition of the talents of the scholars in
dialogues and declarations. We condepse

This school has been regarded as one of the
very best In the city for the past several
years, and the scholars who have passed in
70 the high schools from the
first classes have ever been
found proficient in their studies. The
accomplished principal, Miss Florence Bour-
or1in, who has done so much to raise the
standard of the class, is, we regret to say,
compelled by Ill health to abandon her
place temporarily. Since the opening of the
session Miss j. A. Muslin has been acting
principal. and has most admirably maintain
ed the reputation of the school. The exhi-
bition Yesterday did her credit, as the pro-
ficiency displayed by the class showed that
they had been thoroughly instructed. Miss
Muslin has given particular attention to the
study of arithmetic, and her scholars, boys
aud girls, are well up in mathematics. The
several grades of the school can also be
highly complimented, and the members of
the Board of Education who were present
were well satisfied with all they heard and
saw. The children participating in the dia
Iogues and those who acclaimed, without
exception, did well. We give this portion
