The 30th of May came in in all the
beauty of a Minnesota summer day,
clear and bright. The fact that the
children were to take part in the ex.
ercises was sufficient explanation for
the hustle on our streets so early in
the morning.
The program was carried out with
unusual promptitude. In the MORN
ing Overton Post, of Morris. Hunter
Post, of Hancock. and Albert Scheffer
Camp Sons of Veterans, marched out
to the cemeteries and decorated the
graves Of their deceased comrades in
an appropriate manner.
Promptly at 2 o'clock the G. A. r.

Closing Exercises.

Prof. Childs drew the largest house
of the season at the court house on
Friday evening last. The occasion
was the closing exercises of the pub
lie schools, and it was we'll done.
We have often seen the court house
we'll filled, but never to such repletion
as on Friday evening. The infantry
were everywhere; in companies, regi-
ments, brigades and divisions. They
were in the seats. on the ratings, in
every nook and corner; and if there
had been any trees there they would
have roasted on the branches. We
did not know there were SO many
children in Morris. The scarcest
thing in the large hall was standing
room.
The exercises were so good that it
would be hard to say which was best.
and we are glad we are not obliged to
give a verdict; but that Queen Of the
May would make any old heart beat
in sympathy with childhood.
The teachers who trained the
children TO such perfect drill deserve
great credit. We do not usually ap-
preciate such efforts at their true
worth. -.
We would like to know how many
happy heart beats went forth from
the breasts of fond and proud fathers
and mothers present, but that we
will never know; we could, however,
read from the countenances of those
around US that it was the supreme
moment of their lives when their
children came upon the stage. Such
exercises should not he allowed to &C
