SINGING CLASS.

A few people met in the school-house
last evening for the purpose of starting
a class for the practice of vocal music.
Although worry favogably impressed with
tho Introductory exercises of Prof. w.
P. Colby. when he was here, other con-
siderations made it seem best not to
invite him to take charge of the class
The class has very efficient instruction
however in the person of Mr.. Peter
Joslyn who has kindly consented to
direct the work.
1t seems difficult to fix upon two eve
nings in the week that would be con-
yenient for everyone, but it was agreed
to try Mondays and Thursdays for a
time. The exercises begin promptly at
1880, and all wishing to attend will great
ly oblige the instructor and others by
being punctual.

The heads of the nation judge for reward,
