I'm Appreciation.

Editor Rerdid:
Allow an old reader and subscriber
of your paper to say i'm its print anony-
mously but in good faith, that he
deeply appreciated, as did many others
who were present, the exhibition given
by Miss Walters class in Calisthenics
at the school-house chapel last Monday
night. IT was Beautiful Exercise in
fact: it showed TO us the brightness,
the value and the capabilities of the
children of our town, and that we have
no cause to be ashamed of them; and
it further showed Ito me at least, and |
hope TO all the rest of the attendant
seniority more clearly the Importance
of bestowlng very careful observation
upon the education of the irresistible
misunderstanding and fun-loving brats
who are now coming up around us, i'm
order that every blessed one of them
may be developed into healthy and adj
mirable manhood or womanhood
Their Interesting performance went
somewhat to remind one of the Peda-
gogic Province in Meister's Trareis, and
entitled themselves aud their teacher to
a great deal of favorable OPP inion.
Miss Walters recitation of The
Wounded Soldier was no inferior act,
either. She seemed a modest proficient
in the meritorious and culturing art
which so many robustious, and senti-
mental, bunglers have rendered to a
degree distasteful sss
