blei here this Evening The Programme
consisted Of spelling before recess good order
prevailed during this time At recess two
young men had little racket which caused
some excitement among .he ladies but this
was soon all over and the teacher called the
audience to order afterwhich good order pre-
vailed again And then proceeded with the
programme which consisted of songs, reci-
tatiens. speeches. and dialogues. which could
not be surpassed By any common school in
the county. The manner II. +. conducts his

this respect but also that he is successful
