Sutter District School.

~. A Visitor" sends the following ac-
count of the entertainment ait the SUIT
ter District school:
Last Friday evening was invited by
one of the patrons to attend the eXhi-
bition given by the pupils of Sutter Dis
trict school. 1t was, indeed, an even
ing Well spent One would almost i'm
agine some fairy had waved her magic
wand and hi presto. changel The COM
monplace schoolroom is suddenly meta
moIphosed into a fairy bower. The
front of the rostrum was one mass of
flowers, showing our national flowers
off to perfection, While above was dis
played a large picture of Admiral
Dewey, decorated with flags, a silent
declaration that the lads and lassies
were not deficient in patriotism.
1t is impossible to describe minutely
the decorations, but there were flowers,
flowers everywhere, intermingled with
the loveliest of ferns and grasses. But
all these were forgotten when the bright
faces of the children appeared and we
listened to the finely rendered program,
consisting of recitations, songs and
dancing
An address by Assistant State Super
intendent Job Woods. Jr., was greatly
enjoyed, and brevity was the only fault
to be found With it. Specialties by Sac
ramento talent was very much appre-
ciated. In fact, the whole program was
good. 1 must not forget to mention the
three rousing cheers we gave for
Dewey and also for Professor Hun
ter, who has done so much, mentally
and morally, for the children of Sutter
