LOCAL AFFAIRS.
The Academy Exercises
AT THE TOWN HALL, LAST
FRIDAY EVENING.
Exercises of A High Order
AND ENJOYED BY A LARGE AND REPRE-
SENTATIVE AUDIENCE.
Exercises of A High Order

The closing exercises of the Newtown
Academy, last Friday night, brought
out an audience which completely filled
the Town hall. The doing away with the
admission fee was the proper thing and
gave many chance to attend who other
wise would have been denied the pleas
ure.
The stage was very handsomely deco
rated. The entire front was covered
with laurel, and above the stage was the
inscription, "Esse Guam Videri, ITO
be, rather than to SEEM" On the plat
form were seated, Principal Mac Farland,
Rev George T. Linsley, president of the
Academy Board of Trustees, and his
associates on this board, Henry G. Cur
tbs, Daniel G. Beers, Homer A. Hawley
and Charles S. Plat.
TO the credit of Principal Mac Farland
it should be said that the exercises were
of high order, exceptionally so, and
were the best ever given by this school.
The selections were admirable, the parts
carried well by the pupils, and those in
the audience at the close felt that they
had passed profitable evening. At the
close of the exercises diploma was
awarded the single member Of the gradu-
ating class, James Milton Belts. A most
enjoyable feature of the program was the
singing of the Sandy Hook quartet, Mr.
and Mrs Ezra ]. Hall, Mrs Nellie Tucker
and Harry Orgelmsn. Their selections
were pleasing and they were repeatedly
encored. Dancing was enjoyed by the
young people after the audience had dis
persed, music being furnished by DAN
bury parties.
The program was as follows:
Prayer.
Music, Trio.
Original Essay, Modern Chivalry,"
James Milton Belts.

bel Emily Morris.

4 GENTLE HINT,

a GENTLE HINT.
There are several young men who at
tend the Flat Rock Methodist church
who seem to have very good opinion of
themselves. But those VINO witness their
proceedings during the evening prayer
meetings, and are annoyed personally by
them. have very poor opinion Of them
They seem to think they are far superior
to the uneducated Italian. OF course
they are as far as education is concerned,
but when it comes to good behavior in
the house of God, it would be we'll for
them to take q few LESSONS from him.
His idea of the house of God is, THAT it
is not the place to go to have sport, that
there are other places where people can
play" "No good" he says "for any
one to 20 to church for fun" Another
thing he says,'I no like TO see so MANY
turn 'em head around and look back, t.
see every one who come in back to them
Keep e N, turn 'em head around all time
What good in that? Why don't they
look 'em straight in front all the time to
the minister? Spain no right behinu
them to fight! Course IL Spain be righ
back to them to fight they have to l0ok
back once in awhile, or they get knock
on top the head. and be dead. but when
no Spain be back to them in church
| the right way is to look in front to them
all the time, tel-le myself" This i.
good for many to bear in mind. Nov
young men it will be well for you, and
much more to your credit, to think anc
| act az he does in the house of God, and
it is hoped that hereafter he will be treat
ed with more respect from you than he
has heretofore.-CA Friend to Both.
