The Jacob Tome Institute closed Wednes-
day for the summer vacation. Tuesday
and Wednesday the parents and friends
OF the pupils from far and near focked
into town to see what progress their little
ones had made. In each room pupils were
placed to explain everything to visitors, to
pupils for certain length of time, and SO on
all day. Each teacher was present all the
time and no visitor could feel neglected. as
every attention was shown each one. Special
mention should be made of Miss Barnard's
room. She was summoned hastily home, and
could not prepare her room for exhibition, so
her little pupils got everything ready with
care and exactncss. Do the people appre-
ciate the great privilege they are enjoying:
Could the benefactors hear the parents aq
they speak in praise, and hear the eager
expressions of gratitude that come from full
hearts It would rest like q bcnediction upon
them as they are enjoying with the pupils Il
rest from so many cares.
