WILLOW GROVE SEMINARY.

From late afternoon until after DARK
of Wednesday it seemed that many OF
tbe neople of Edinburg. Woodstock and
surrounding country had but one OBJ
iective point and that was Willow Grove.
And most amply were they repaid after
reaching there. for the closing exercises
Of Mrs. McGinnis' Willow Grove Semi
nary were very interesting and beautiful.
The large and nicely shaded yard was
filled with tiers of seats that faced large
stage erected along the front OF the
building, which being well lighted gave
every one fine view.
Tn the crowded condition OF our col
umns we cannot give even part OF tle
program. which was admirably gotten
ND and carried out.
The pupils of the music department
show careful training and reflect credit
upon their teacher. The selections were
all good and were enjoyed by the small
army of steners.
The class in elocution gave very fair
rendition OF Poe's Bells" an exceed
inglv difficult piece. The vocal music
was also very good, showing some very
fine and well trained voices.
The calisthenic class appeared in a
Japanese fan drill that was exceedingly
attractive, the participants being bril-
liantlv dressed in japanese garments,
and going through all the difficult evo-
lutions with graceful precision.
A vocal solo. a cradle song, was very
sweetly rendered by pretty little Jessie
Mantz.
By request Miss Price, the teacher OF
vocal music, sung "Narguerite" to
the great enjoyment of every one. her
sweet and finely cultivated voice sound
ed clear and distinct, although it was in
the open air.
1t was during the singing OF this eX-
ouisite song that some persons, both
male and female. who were on the real
seats. could not refrain from showing
their bad manners by loud talking and
singing, much to the annoyance Of
all others.
We do not think there couldhaye beer
less than five hundred persons present
all of whom seemed greatly pleased.
Mrs. McGinnis and accomplished corps
of teachers are to be congratulated upon
the great success Of Willow Grove Semi
nary

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES.
SHENANDOAH FEMALE INSTITUTE.

The Shenandoah Female Institute, OF
this place, under the careful administra-
ltion of Mrs. Genl. Williams and her
trained and efficient assistants has be-
come an institution of learning OF which
our people can we'll be proud, and the
high reputation Of which is spreading
wider and wider with each succeeding
year, although its unpretentious modesty
has never been advertised by flaming
posters and brazen flourish OF trum-
pets. From the very first the commence
ment exercises of this school have been
of very high order Of merit, and have
aroused an interest among not only the
people of this place, but Of other sec
tions. until they are now looked for
ward to with the most pleasant antici-
patiOns.
The commencement this year was
opened with the art exhibit OH the after
noon of Friday, June Ord, and embraced
the work of the students of Miss Sallie
Anderson's art class. While the exhibits
of the year before had prepared the
spectators in a measure, yet they were
completely surprised at the great ex-
cellence of the work and the wide range
of subjects embraced, showing conclu-
sivelv that the course of instruction and
study was not confined to one beaten
track in which repeated attempts had
secured mechanical success.
Among the most successful efforts OF
the class was a large crayon portrait OF
the late NJ. Geary. by his daughter, Miss
Lizzie. 1t is speaking likeness.
On Tuesday evening, OF last week, the
large school room was literally crowded
with the relatives and friends of the pu-
pills to witness what proved to be the
best and most enjoyable of these eXer-
cises that the school has ever given. We
regret that our limited space will not al
low lis to give but brief account. The
musical portion of the program was in
deed a treat. the selections being OF the
highest order and the pupils displaying
a proficiency and skill that reflected
great credit upon their instructor and
must have been highly gratifying to the
patrons.
The presentation of the work OF the
ChronOthanetoletron," an invention
by which any of the great characters OF
the past can be brought back in the flesh,
was very interesting, and as Sarah,
Abraham's daughter. Queen Elizabeth,
Mother Bickerdick, PocahOntas, Joan OF
Arc. and many others, walked out from
the dim vistas of those long dead ages,
accurately costumed, and with their con-
versation giving a decided flavor OF the
times in which they lived and moved,
the effect was striking.
There was much other that was inter-
esting but we have reached the end of
our space much to our regret.
That the training of this school is most
thorough and efficient is now too well
known to need any commentator here.
Why our people should send their chill
dren to distant and more expensive
schools when they can be under the best
instruction and training in our own
county, is strange to say the least.
We congratulate Mrs. Williams, and
Misses Ackley, Anderson and Williams
upon the gratifying results OF their labors
during the past session.

Anybody can make his own ice cream
IN FIVE minutes, and for an expenditure
of two or three cents, says correspon-
dent. If the preparation desired co be
frozen is placed in tin bucket or other
receptacle it can be readily CONCEALED by
putting in pail containing weak dilu'
ton Of sul2huric acid and water. Into
this throw a handful of common Chamber
salt, and the resulting cold is so great
that bottle of wine immersed in the
mixture will be frozen solid in few min

to repairing the Hall.
The festival held on last Friday and
Saturday nights 10 the new Boyer store
room. for the benefit of the Methodist
parsonage, was most literally patronized,
many persons from the surrounding coun.
try being present on Saturday night. Tie
net proceeds amounted TIA little over
forty dollars.

Twins to the front this time. A baby
carriage, however, will not be needed. as
these two interesting and profitable
Youngsters belong to Mr.. llisey's COW,
and can already furnish their own means
of locomotion.
Although Monday was blazing hot
quite a number of our people went
to Woodstock to attend court. If any oil
them were in debt to the HERALD we hope
they called to see you and paid MP like
men. as the HERALD is too good paper
to be read without being paid for.
The ladies festival, the proceeds of
which are TO be used in cleaning M the
old burying ground here, will be bell on
both Friday and Saturday nights, 18th
and 18th, and from all indications Will be
one of the best cond acted and patronized
festivals of the season. Along with other
dIlicacies and refreshments lunch table
will be kept supplied with good and sub
sfantial food at very moderate prices.
This is a cause that appeals most touch
ingly to every one in this section ana Il
is surely not necessary for rs to urge our
people to respond with open hands and
pockets to this noble effjrt Of our lad les,
God hlfss them.
