A Sunday School Entertainment.

1t wasn't a picnic and still it was
picnic in one sense of the word. and
especially to those fortunate ones who
tasted the fruits of its genuine amnse.
ments and spiritual comforts. The
occasion was the entertainment given
last evening at the lovely home of
Prof. and Mrs. J. b. Sanders tn the
Bible class at the Baptist church, Of
which Mr.. Sanders is teacher, and Ed.
A. n. COUGHS class and a number of
invited friends.
An elegant program of games and
scriptural quotations had been arranged
which was highly amusing and in
structive. 1t seemed that everything
had been happily planned and elabo-
rately conceived for our enjoyment.
II would seem that the amiable aud
generous hosts had consulted the tastes
and lnclinatiOns of each individual
guest and had prepared especially for
his or her enjoyment from the varied
methods of entertainment employed.
The lawn was beautifully lighted with
softly tinted japanese lanterns and
other lights, and under the trees happy
groups OF boys and girls participated
merri!y in games and bright converse.
Delicious refreshments were served.
There was music, and the air was full
OF melody and harmony and the sound
or rich voices in song. There was
euphony and rythm about it all and
the spirit of love and good fellowship
reigned supreme. 1t was good to be
there and the charming influences of
the evening will be cherished long and
fondly by the handsome company.
Miss Alice and Miss Lucy and Mr..
Jno. T., and Hall, seemed to be every
where At the same time-always So
licitous and painstakiDg for the en-
joyment Of others, and the professor
and his good wife sat by and talked
through 1t all, craving their pleasure
from the jolly capers and happy say
ings of the young folks, thinking, no
doubt, of the days when they were
boy and girl together. Those present
were: Ed. and Mrs. A. n Couch,
little Mary and the two baby boys,
Arthur and Edmond, Mrs. Jas. San
ders and little Anna Clay, Mr.. and
Mrs. Y. Il. lizard, Mr.. and Mrs. w. T..

WINCHESTER SCHOOLS PRINCI-
rs.

PAL.
1t is hoped that the rumor which is
about that Principal Hurd of the Win
chester school is to be removed at the
close of the present school term by the
retiring superintendent Is untrue, and
that this parting shot will not be fired
by the superintendent, who has been I'M
derstood to be hostile to Mr. Hurd for
some time Mr.. Hurd has made an ex-
cellent record as an educator, and as a
faithful and unwearying principal
whose enlightened work has been pro-
ductive of strikingly successful results
in the Winchester district, which he has
had charge of for years. He enjoys the
respect and confidence of parents. pupils
and teachers for his efficient services as
principal. Over five hundred pupils
have been successfully ftted for the
high school under his charge He has
two grammar schools in charge and
sends a class of sixty to high school
this year. 1t is not believed possible
that the board of education will permit
such a change to be made against the
judgment of the large number of par
ents and pupils, who know of Mr..
Hurd's successful work. Two of Mr.
Hurd's strongest supporters are college
professors of prominence, who have had
children in Winchester school during
several years, and took pains to watch
their work very closely. The general
public should be deeply interested in
any matter of this kind since the order
ly control and direction of district
having over forty teachers and register
ing upwards of 1,700 children is mat
ter that affects the whole community,
and that control Mr.. Hurd has proven
himself very competent 70 exercise, be-
sides being an expert in educational poll
icy on lines of common sense develop
ment. Visiting teachers from ont of
town and in town have spoken in very
positive terms of the excellent work seen
in Winchester schools, while a large
company Of Mr.. Hurds former pupils
are very decided in their testimony to
his ability as a manager and teacher
and also to their respect for him as a
gentleman and citizen.
