The school Examinations

Were concluded on Thursday, by the
High School and the A grammar schools
closing the weeks interesting work, the
B grammar schools. having been dis
posed of on Wednesday. The exercises,
as a rule, were varied and interesting,
consisting of a general review of some
branches of study, interspersed with
literary exercises and vocal music. The
rooms, generally, were crowded with
visitors N the afternoons. Our limited
space will not let us particularize, or
we should be glad to do so. Several
schools sang the"Star Spangled Banner" +"
the National Hymn" as we'll as choice
sentimental songs. The recitatiOns
given were, as a rule, we'll chosen and
finely given. The review of studies gave
evidence OF good progress. We were
much interested with the electrical eX-
periments given in the High school
room. In fact, we were interested in all
the rooms visited, and we put in time
pretty faithfully in company with
Superintendent Lehman. The schools
open again on Monday. 1t would be
well if our citizens would more gen
orally visit the schools and witness for
themselves their working and progress.
A few minutes thus given occasionally
would not be thrown away.

The Grounds to BE Adorned with Shade
Trees and Tables for Picnic Parties
J.L. G. Smith is improving his
hot mineral springs and grounds.
One feature of the improvement is a
circular grove of Balm of Gilead trees,
of which IS are now growing finely,
and 100 more will be planted this
fall. This variety of tree flourishes
on Wood River, and the trunk Of the
tree attains a diameter of 30 inches.
The odor is delightful after rain and
the foliage is always a bright green,
The wood is pure white and fine
grain, which affords excellent lumber.
AS shade tree it is unrivaled. The
grove to be planted by Mr.. Smith is
to be used for shade, and large table
will be in the centre circle for the use
of picnic parties. BY next season the
springs will be delightful place of
resort.
