In reading, defamation, music and com
position the masters and misses acquitted
themselves well. All of them were sp-
plauded, and several received floral fayors.
At the conclusion OF the exercises the visitors
were Invited 10 The various class rooms to ex-
srniae the examples of drawing placed on the
black boards by the pupils. These examples
were very numerous. They all showed re-
markable proficiency in the pupils. Drawing
wss only introduced into the public schools
here two years ago. For one year there was
a special teacher. 1t seems scarcely credible
that slch progress could have been made In
that tine. Some Of the examples were phen-
omenal in their originality and spirit. Inc
designs in bordsrs, and the most OF the ex'
amples If industrial drawing, however, at
tracted the attention Of the more thought
full. These were in nearly every
Instance exceedingly well executed, and
give strong testimony in favor oil
the popularity and usefulness of the
study. They Illustrate one other thing also,
the competency oil the class teachers TO in
struct in this valuable educational branch.
1t had been feared that when the matter was
given over to the ciass-teachers they would
prove less successful than when there was
special teacher of drawing, but it has not so
proven. Some Of the borderwork, pattern
designing and geometrical hgure-designing
shown yesterday would have commanded
good ulace in the advanced schools of design,
and have received complimentary recognition
by professional designers.
