original party and largely by her efforts
most ably seconded by an eager corps o.
versatile assistants it proved itself worthy
of the name. A few Intelligent lockers
on-goOd Judges all-said some pleasant
words commencing the original contri-
buttons. Come with two or three friends
to the next one.
On Tuesday evening we were favored
with one of G. +. Bottoms realistic lee
lures upon Incidents of the War for the
! Union" The illustrations were fine and
the talk given as the views were shown,
both interesting and instructive. Mr..
Bolton has an easy, conversational way
of speaking, and by using simple Ian
guage, carries his audience along with
) him into the scenes presented. We have
| heard only words of commentator from
those who listened to him. This is Mr..
Bottoms second lecture in johnson and
we hope to hear him again. We wish
| him success.
1t is well known by all of our towns
people that during the summer vacation
of the Normal School Prin. A. II. Camp
bell made journey to the Pacific coast,
stopping at points of interest along the
line; going by the way of the Union and
Central Pacific and returning by the
Northern Pacific railroad. With the ex-
ception of few letters which he wrote
for the NEWS AND CITIZEN, there are but
few of us who know of the wonderful
things that he saw and the many things
that his journey taught him. He now
offers us the opportunity of taking this
journey with him in Imagination. He
has prepared three lectures, primarily
for the school, but every one is Invited
to attend. in which he will describe to us
many of the wonders that we never will
know of but by description. DR.. Camp
bell went on this journey thoroughly
equipped to make The most of it. He
had studied well what others have OBJ
served and thought of these same scenes.
He knew what to look for and where to
look for it, and the impressions made up
on his mind by seeing must have been
much more valuable on this account than
they would have been if they had sprung
upon him unexpectedly. His Observa-
lions were not confined to the beauties
and magniicence of nature, but he OBJ
served and studied all things that pre-
sented themselves to him. He saw the
magniffcence and wealth of our country;
he saw the vast unOccupied wealth that
is ready to be given for the asking; he
saw the wonderful feats of engineering;
he studied the great political problems
OF MOrmODlSm ana CnlneSe immigration
at their very doors. Considering all
these things we have reason to expect,
and do expect that the lecture will be of
great interest and profit to all who hear
them. The lectures will be illustrated
by pictures and specimens of work and
ore that will be on exhibition from to
7.45, when the exercises commence. The
first lecture of the series will be given
