THE CoLORED SCHOOLS.
The Examinations at West Broad stree
aud FairIaED

The Examinations at West Broad Street
and FairIawn.
At both of the colored schools-West
Broad street and Fairlawn-the class
rooms were crowded with visitors, and
the exercises were of an interesting char
acter. The programmes were much the
same as at the other schools, and the pu-
pills did their parts very satisfactorily.

of II. G. FlOyd. the exercises We're unu-
sually entertaining and instructive. The
