Berkeley Female Institute,
Mr.. Rnines

Mr.. Raines:
DEAR S1R:-The writer had the
pleasure of attending the third an
nual commencement at the Berkeley
Female Institute, of Martinsburg,
lMissWiltshire, principal. } on Thurs
day evening, June 3. Though the
weather was extremely warm and the
large opera house was packed to its
utmost capacity, yet the verdict OF
all vas that a most enjoyable evening
had been spent. The exercises be-
gan with a march on the piano by
three young ladies to the strains of
which the school, numbering about
forty young ladies and girls, marched
from the stage to the body of the
house and took their seats. After
this several instrumental pieces we're
rendered by the pupils and then
came a charming little operatta,
"Bonny Bell, !" a cousin to Cinderella,
rendered by the pupils. Benny Bell
was truly beautiful and her voice ex-
quisite in one so young. We wonder
not that the Prince lost his heart at
sight of her, and then when he had
lost her for u time, lost also his peace
of mind until the fair one with win
ming smile and lovely face was found.
All of the several parts we're excel
lentiY rendered and received well
merited applause, especially the
Princes Foul. who was wise enough
to play that part to perfection. Fol
then the calistheuics. In this all the
movements with dumb bells, vans
ana rings were perfectly executed,
while the marching and figures would
have done credit to military regulars.
When first we began to think of this
it appeared that it had but little to
do with education, but it is certainly
excellent exercise, and method and
regularity can be taught in no better
way, and surely these three are not
to be considered lost in teaching and
training the young. The pupils wore
beautiful suits of white trimmed with
red, having white toboggan caps with
red tassel. After these exercises
were concluded the medals and
prizes were delivered by Rev. F. p.
Robertson to the successful competi-
tors. All left for home saying and
thinking only words of praise for
Miss Wiltshire and her assistants,
Misses Jennie Crane. Bessie Bryant,
and Bertha Sharf, who have had q
most successful year and gave us q
most delightful entertainment.
