Owing to the two weeks vacation, given
last summer, that the children have an OPP
portunity to pick hops, the fall term Of our
public school did not close until yesterday,
Friday, although there was vacation of two
weeks during the holidays. There were in
tereStiug exercises in many of the rooms,
consisting of Rotations, singing and in>tru-
mental music. In the infant class the dolls
of The little girls were invited to attend and
IL Was Il most pleasing sight to see the sweet
tile bright-eyed tots with their daintily
dressed dolls fockiug into the schoOl-room,
where their amiabe teacher, Miss Head,
met them with her winning smiles. Miss
{ ara Head who is graduate of the Wash
iugton ID. c. kindergarten, Is an excep-
tiuuul teacher, and has won her way to the
leurts OF the parents by her devotion to her
little pupils. She has a wonderful way Of
gaining their confidence and drawing them
cut and 1t Is surprising how fast the little
ones learn.
The spring term begins next Monday. The
inreaSei attendance has made the work very
hard for the teachers. We have now ten
teachers III our public school, and there
should he at least two more. Some OF the
rooms have from fifty 10 fifty-siX pupils ELL
rolled, too many by far for one teacher to do
justice by.
The Star-Spangled banner that so proudly
waves over the HealdShurg public school
floats over one OF the best-conducted schools
in the State of California. The hiEh-SchoOl
department, the grammar grades and the
primary classes are thoroughly taught by
educators that cannot be eXcelIed.
Speaking of the stars and stripes reminds
me that this magnificent flag was presented
10 the Headsburg Scnool Department by
Rod Natheson Post, g. A. r.. with appr0-
PIRATE ceremonies, on last Memorial day.
This post is in a very tOurishinE condition,
and, IN conjunction with the ladies Of
Roanoke Circle, held public installation OF
officers last Saturday evening. The affair
was most enjoyable and the pleasant hall
was filled with a very appreciatlYe company.
Post Commander JOIN Favour, installed
Tie officers of the post, and Mrs M'ry
,|-Wctt. Past President OF Roanoke Circle,
installed tie ladies' in their respective
Offices After the installation, which was
Very interesting, there was singing and
genera. good time, everyone seeming 10 be
ll The happest mood. While this was
going IN certain mysterious proceedings
seemed t. Indicate that there was some
dining yet to come, which something proved
10 ue a most appttliug supper, consisting OF
all the good things the ladies' Of uedldSbuTg
know 50 well how To prepare.
