Bradford Academy.

A word from one OF the committee
to those that are interested in its work
The graduating exercises were at
tended by the largest gathering tina
ever visited Village Hall, a hall half al
large again would have been needed tt
accommodate all that came, and sea-
them comfortably.
The graduating class acquitted them
selves very creditably, and reflected
honor upon their teachers
There are some things that need tC
be brought before the public in order
to have fair understanding of the &C
ademic work in the year that has just
| closed.
Under the present conditions it is
impossible to do good work, with the
present number of scholars. The
Academy has had about one hundred
and twelve scholars to handle the past
year, it closed with one hundred schol-
ars. The building has but two good
recitation rooms, third is used that is
too small for the business, and part of
the time the library room has had to
be used that is little better for the pur-
pose than closet.
Three teachers have been employed
for these hundred or more scholars,
with the assistance of a graduate upon
occasions, as many as ninety scholars
have had to come. before two of the
teachers in day. One of the teach
ers falls out from Over-work, the 9TH
ers are glad the term is ended.
Now what can single teacher do
with ninety scholars day that is, the
different classes that come under one
teacher during the day have ninety
scholars in them. Is it possible to do
satisfactory work under such condi-
tons? Then again add to this num-
Der the stified atmosphere the scholar
has to breaUhe in the winter time and
muggy days in the summer and YOU
have conditions that no one can man.
age. In these small rooms heated by
box stove the scholar is asked to recite
he looks up and then down and side
WAYS in the barren effort at remember
ing what is the trouble. Well. not
necessarily the child or his teacher. but
the atmosphere has lost its oxygen and
shut up the little fellows brain box so
that he cannot tell what he does know.
Whatever good the present building
may have done in the past it is now
under demands that it cannot meet.
This Is clearly case that needs your
earliest attention. for you are simply
wasting your child's strength upon
fruitless efforts at gaining all educa-
ton. What is needed is four recita-
ton rooms and four good teachers for
the present number of scholars, and
the future outlook for scholars prom
ises to be as great if not greater than
the past year.
Yours cordially,
J. w. LEES.

DUNG the months of July and August.
Large numbers of these children have
been entertained in Vermont for sever
al years past, some of the larger towns
taking one hundred and fifty or more,
and many of the smaller towns in pro-
portion. None have ever been taken
in Bradford. 1t would seem that this
place ought to keep pace with its neigh
bors in the work. ANY family feeling
inclined to entertain one or more of

Heavy Increase and a Splendid show
once.
Postmaster George W. Beckwith has fur
nished the following interesting statistics CON
corning the business done at the POSSIBILITIES for
the year 1890. A wonderful increase in the
business is shown during the last nine years.
The growing business prosperity Of Bur
lington is clearly shown in this statement
On the first of July next this Office will
go into the list Of first class ofices-the only
one in the Stato-and last June there were
only 1l6 in the United States. We think
there is not another city in tho United
States with so small population under
10000 that can show an equal record
1t may be added that the present amount
of business is done by the same number of
clerks as in 1897 when not over one-third
as much mail matter was handled. The
whole showing is not only fine one for our
city, but is also exceedingly creditable to

A Newfoundland dog owned by New
Orleans lady gave an entertaining illustra-
ton of the fact that he comprehends what
Is said to him. One day lady called on
his mistress, and during her visit Lion
came in rather shyly, lay down on the par
lor carpet and went to sleep. The conver-
sation run on, and the visitor finally said,
"Whut q handsome Newfoundland you
have" Lion opened one eye. YES" said
the mistress, "he Is a very good dog, and
takes excellent care Of the children" Lion
opened the other eye aud waved his tail
complacently to and fro on the carpet
when the baby goes out he always goes
with her, and feel sure that no harm can
come to her." his mistress continued.
LIONS tail thumped up and down violent
ly on the carpet. "And he is so gentle to
them all and such playmate and COM
panion to them that we would not take
$1,000 for him" Lions tail now went up
and down. to and fro and round and round
with great and undisguised glee. But"
said the mistress, Lion has one serious
fault" Total subsistence of Lions tnil, to-
gether with the appearance of an expires
sion Of great concern on his face. "He
will come In here with his dirty feet and
lie down on the carpet, when have told
him time and again that he mustn't do it,"
AT this point Lion would doubtless have
demonstrated II he could; but, being
speechless, he arose with an air of the ut
most detection and humiliation, and skunk
out Of the room, with his lately eXuberant
tail TOTALLY Crestfallen.
