point that in education as well as in

is the means of acquiring the other.
The diplomas were presented by the
county superintendent after which
the class address, which was practical
and encouraging was delivered by
Prof. Rose.
The program and each of the eXer-
cises was short BETTING the season

The Rock of the Lion. By Molly Elliot
Seawell. New York: Harper q Bros. /;
Portland: Loring, Short q Harmon.
The period Of this story for boys is from
1779- 1873, and the hero is an American
midship1nan who has served under Paul
Jones; but he IS a prisoner-of- war, and
the incidents arezconnected with the Brit
ish navy, especially with the tremendous
struqgleEfor the Rock of Gibraltar.
Archie Baskerville is the orphan son
of gentleman who had migrated to
America OH account of a quarrel with his
father, Lord Bellingham. When the boy
lands in England, hesgoes to his grand
fathers country house in Yorkshire. The
old lord is attracted by him, and well
comes him as heir, Notwithstanding that
his father was, as he considers, rene
gade. But Archie is Eloyal to his own
country, and his ambition is not to be an
English peer, but the captain OF an
American man of war He is seized by
a press-gang and taken on board the
Royal George, flagship of Admiral KEN
penfelt and before the mistake is dis
covered the vessel is under way to join
and convoy provision fleet sent to the re
lief of Gibraltar. In this way he is pres
emit at the naval battle Of Cape Vincent.
On reaching Gibraltar he is handed over
to the commander of.the beleagured gar
rison, Sir George Eliot, and spends sew
eraI month there before he is able to get
beyond the Spanish lines, and eventually,
after many adventures, to reach Paris.
Here he meets Benjamin Franklin and
his old commander, Paul Jones, and is
living with the latter when the news OF
the surrender of CORVALLIS arrives. The
war with the colonies being over, he
crosses to England. and again resists his
grandfather's entreaties that he will
abandon his country. The next of kin is
