 to Be Congratulated.
 Last evening brought to a close the Lincoln school entertainment. To say that this affair. like all others given under the direction of this popular corps of teachers was success, soclai- lv and financially, is putting it mildly One would have to be an eye witness of the crowds which thronged the four rooms in which the entertainment was held and the delight depicted on the faces of those who witnessed as well as of those who took part, attestad freely the appreciation by the public of the work accomplished by those eIi- ergetic and progressive teachers. The following program was rendered.: Chorus-''Best of All" Grades V. VT When Mother Looks. Harold Miller Thanksgiving Dinner. Grade "ShoemakerS" ....s.. .5.. Sub primary "Reverie in Il Church.

 To cap the enjoyment of the evening was an amusing little farce from Louisa Alcott's book. Little Men and I Women" The various characters were handled in a manner which be trayed the professional rather thar the amateurs hand. Following is the | cast:

Edith Speerins Teddy. ................. Fred Kilduf Denny. ................ Sidney CrelliI Bessie. ........ Florence Webste
 To say that any number deserve, more credit than another is hardly jus tifiable. but that some should catcl the interest and approval of the audi ence more than another is reasonable This was especially shown in the shoe makers chorus by the little tots of tn sub-primary. Gowned in the shoe makers apron and armed with hi hammer they presented a pleasin; spectacle as their sweet little voice echoed through the room. The hit o the evening, however. was made b, the Rival Orators" The rivalr was shown in such a perfect manne that the audience forgot for the mo ment that the participants were onl making believe"
 By means of this affair. Mis O'Neill, principal of the school, is abl to realize a sum to entirely pay fo the school piano and have large SUI plus which will be put to the best us possible.
