SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT.
School Closes with Pleasing Exercises
Given b. the Pupils.

18Th, of this month was celebrated
by very pleasant entertainment
consisting of Music, Essays, Decla-
nations, Dialogues and Songs.
The house was literally packed
with ladies' and gentlemen of the
town and the exercises were very
much enjoyed.
Many of the pupils, from three
to I6 and II years gave their pieces
without hesitation and in a charming
manner. Considering the short time
given them by the teachers, they all
acquitted themselves remarkably
we'll
The week had been passed in
Thorough examination, and not as
some teachers have done exclusively,
to our knowledge, in preparing the
children to make show of them
selves. None of the regular studies
were neglected and consequently
the pupils had but little time in
which to prepare for the ordeal, but
Notwithstanding this they prepared
to givea splendid entertainment and
the parents and teachers should be
proud of the success OF their efforts.
After the exercises several of the
attending gentlemen gave little talks
congratulatory Of the teachers and
the evident success OF OF their efforts
for the year, for the advance of edu-
cation. The Asst Miss Henry made
few remarks on behalf of the pu-
pills. Prof. Bathurst gave q very
feeling talk Of the qualification they
expressed at the result of their years
work, which had been labor oil
love. There has been no occasion
during the year for corporal punish
ment although the Prof, was told
he had lot of bad boys to handle,
In feeling terms he spoke OF the per-
feet confidence in and obedience Of
, the pupils to the requirements Of the
teachers in all cases.
We concur in the opinion of the
parents that both teachers and pu.
pills have done their duty, and have
no doubt that the successful ending
OF this years work will never be for
gotten by either.
