Closing Exercises of the School.


he closing exercises of the school
were held in the Congregational
church and were of unusual interest.
A large platform was built extend
ing across the entire church and up
to the front pews The back of this
stage was filled with solid bank of
evergreen eight or nine feet high,
which proved to be most beautiful
decoration and filled the house with
fragrance. 1t was also background
against which all participants looked
their best. The exercises opened
with piano solo by Miss Jennie w.
Chase. Miss Chase, although only
thirteen years of age, is already a
fine pianist, and her brilliant execu-
ton of long and difficult piece was
so well appreciated that she received
an encore. The next was fine reel
tation by Charlotte E. Chase. Then
came Mother Goose quadrille from
the primary pupils, dressed in elabo-
rate costumes representing their
parts. The quadrille was long one,
including many movements, and was
taken By the children from the piano
Accompaniment without hesita ton.
Then folio we'd recitatiOns and music,
among which was a cornet solo by
Lorenzo Q. Eaton and a very fine
flag drill by ten young ladies IN the
costumes of various countries, &C
companied by the piano, and the
national songs of the countries they
represented.

years as the late A. S. Bowker's shop
has been moved back and is being
finished for a barn and connected
with the buildings owned by B. F.
Rollins Of St. Johnsbury. This is
great improvement to that part of
Chapel street, as the shop stood
within a few feet of the sidewalk and
so near Mr.. Rollins house that the
caves of the two buildings could
barely be supposed to drop each side
an imaginary line, and effectually
shutting off all light from that side
of the house, which now becomes a
very pleasant cottage and is occu-
pied by E. McGennis.
