Young Prize Winners.

Notice was given at the opening of
the fall term of school that prizes were
offered through the liberality of citi-
zen of the town, for excellence in the
writing of compositions. The contest
was open to any scholar in the public
schools and the prizes were to be award
ed at the close of the term. Thirty of
the pupils entered into the contest and
that number of compositions was hand
ed in. After careful examination the
first prize of So was awarded to Stella
Gondell of the west village and the
second Of 50 to Annie Spaulding of the
east. Several others were of almost
equal merit and il is desired to name in
particular those of Helen Campbell,
school No. l; Charles Gorham, No. q;
Edna Wright, No. and Alice Atcher-
'scsiy Nc. S: ne~xaffiiifters wish to say
that the compositions were all neatly
written with very few mis-speIled
words or grammatical errors. In no
one were more than three words wrong
ly spelled and the division into SEN
fences and the use of capital letters was
generally excellent. They were much
pleased with the work of the pupils and
consider that the benefit to them all in
the competition is Of far greater worth
than the money value of the prizes.
