Monday April II, 1S97.-The farmers
are getting quite bit of rest, owing
to so much wet weather.
Our school closed last Thursday with
a big dinner which was surprise to
the teacher. Matte Horn; although it
rained quite hard all the forenoon, the
patrons gathered with well filed bas-
kets, the men brought boards and
erected table the whole length of the
school house and from the number of
chickens, pies, cakes, pickels and other
good things provided, one would pro-
nounce it fit for the king. There were
forty partook of the dinner, and still
there was plenty left. After dinner
we listened to recitations, songs and
ETC., by the pupils, after which the
prizes were distributed. The members
of the'schOol board were then called up
on, each complimenting Miss Horn on
her efficient work done. So ended
very pleasant and successful term of
