Mentioned and the Prize Winners,
Moro than 500 ladies and gentlemen
Witnessed the closing exercises OF Will
mtngton's Public Evening Draughting
School In Institute, Tuesday evening.
The honorably mentioned, prize and
other meritorious drawings OF the
students were displayed on the walls.
Thomas O. Dill, assistant street COM
missioner, thought this one OF the
grandest schools. He emphasized the
usefulness Of trades. The man wanted
to-day is the Instructor, foreman or
superintendent. The man you can
learn your trade from Is also In great
demand as q journeymnn. The man
wanted Is tho 'top-man." He thought
1t would not DO many years before
everything Of Importance in wood or
iron would first be drawn, and all APP
prentices should learn to both make
and read drawings. His remarks were
excellent.
Bishop Coieman's ornate address
was OF the standard idea in setting
forth to young men the Geographic
examples and moral inspiration to
greatness and success. 1t was first
class and showed the Bishop, Just as
% years ago, heartily devoted to the
promotion OF popular education.
The principal, Vincent G. Hazard,
appears to be model teacher. He Is
personally attractive, unassuming of
cultured speech, ptilosophic, instruc.
tive and briof.
He was gratified to SEQ tho ladies
there and hoped they would often en-.
, courage the school by their presence.
He trusted the young gentlemen would
review their drawings at home even.
ings and keep ON in their practice and
studies. He gave the highest com
incubation to his assistant teachers
whose names appear below.
The young man II years of age,
| Charles Green, from tho draughting
department of the Harlan and Hol.
lingswolth Company, had made the
practical drawing of, and actually CON
structed the working model, an engine
that could make 500 revolutions per
minute. This appeared to be q popular
achievement with both instructors
| and students. Mr.. Green and all
the speakers and teachers were heartily
applauded. There was high enthusi-
asm, manly and neat appearance on
the part OF tho young gentlemen them.
