CLOSING EXERCISES OF THE PUB
Lie MISUNDERSTANDING the
Indictment weather, quite number of
the patrons aud friends of the school
assembled at the school building on
Friday evening last, to witness the
closing exercises. The exercises, con-
Quoted by the principal, Miss Lizzie
Gordon, began promptly at one O'Clock
and lasted about two hours. The pro-
gram which consisted of songs, verses,
fecitations and dialogues, is too long
for particular mention. Each pupil
in the school had some part to take
in it, and many of them appeared sew
eral times. The children performed
their part very creditably. Much
credit is due the Principal and her as
sistant, Miss Mcknown, for their success
full teaching and training during the
past term. Mr.. Edgar Bowers, with
a few appropriate remarks, presented
the following prizes, given for head
marks and perfect lessons in spelling
and mental arithmetic: BY Mr.. Nc
Kown to Torrison Shade, Bessie Nc
Cormick, Calvin Peery and Richard
Aiken, each book by Miss Lizzie
| Gordon, to Rosa McFillin, British Fe-
male Poet, To Minnie Graham and
Nellie Croft, each double slate, and
to Jennie Sirbaugh, Irsing'S Sketch
Book.
During the last two weeks of school
written examinations were held in
Geography, Grammar, Physiology,
Arithmetic, History, Reading, Or
biography and Penmanship, in which
many Of the pupils made high grades.
We are glad to hear some of the
patrons speaks ofextending the school

would certainly be to the advantage
of the school, and we hope all the
patrons will advocate it and that the
board will grant it.
