Wallace Gray, Of room 8, IN an aifray
with ED. Smith. n fellow school mate,
one day last week had knife thrust
into the bicep of his right arm. We
we're informed that the deed was done
Intentionally by Smith, who seemed
rather careless of the manner in which
he fiourished his weapon. 1t would be
advisable for the pupils to be very care
ful what instruments, and how they use
them, for defence on such occasions, as
they ofttimes create serious results.
One of the teachers from our rural
sections while on his way to Reynolds
vile last Saturday to attend institute,
accosted a Dutch lady, who happened
to be passing at the time, with this
question, MADAM, how far is it to
Reynoldsville?" "Shoost a leetle ways"
was the reply. "Yes, but how far?''
again queried the pedagogue, whom
the lady now thought rather inquisitive,
"Shoost Il leettle ways" more emphat-
ically. MADAM. is it one, two, three,
four or five milesY" The old lady in
geniously replied, 81 dinks it is" The
fellow arrived.
The literary program rendered last
Friday proved an entire success and all
those who participated in il deserve
great praise for the manner they per-
formed their duty. The appearance
they made on the stage is evidence that
their literary talent has been greatly
developed during the last term of school,
and we can safely say that it is the re-
suit of continual practice in such work.
Our literary workers will hold mock
trial next Friday afternoon. Very care
ful preparation is being taken to make
the trial as interesting as possible for
those who attend.
Miss Amelia Morrow has ceased to be
a member OF the High School.
The educational meeting held in AS
sembly hall last Saturday will prove q
memorable affair in the annals of our
school The morning exercises, though
of short duration, were very interesting
and well conducted. There was large
attendance in the afternoon, both Of
teachers and patrons. Many important
facts to aid the teacher were disclosed
during the day, and if they are remem'
bered and practiced, we are sure fruit
full results will be reaped. We Offer
but one criticism, which is that mum
ber of the teachers present did not pay
the attention required of them. Theil
minds may have been dwelling on more
important subjects, but we doubt it.
We are aware of the numerous critic:
who are constantly searching our col
umn, and the conspicuous signs of theil
serious remarks make it quite evident
that no other opinions are current
Though the contents of our article on
the stereoptican affair coincded with
the original report Of the bout, yet we
gladly received the 'trifling corrections
which appeared on the local page O
| this paper last week.
