ANNUAL EXHIBITION.
Given by the Gymnastic Department
Of the Y. w. v. A.--Mem-
bers of the Glasses.

The annual exhibition of the GYM
rasium department of the Young Wo-
mems Christian association took place
last night in the high school audito-
rum under the direction of Miss Mary
Haines Hall. The entertainment was
entirely class work with no effort at
fancy drills, but it was the most inter-
esting and practical affair of the kind
ever seen in this city. The auditorium
was filled with spectators.
Miss; Hall is avery attractive young
woman of the Boston Normal School OF
Gymnastics. Her method includes the
best of the Swedish movements with
an adjunct of alertness and go" which
cannot fall to be of inestimable value
to her pupils. The effect of intelligent
direction of the minds upon the bo''es
of the class is marked. The exercises
given were very complete and sensible.
A military like directress accentuates
the value of the work.
There was one class of little tots,
boys, who were chiefly blousewaists
and wriggling legs. Their solemn in
tentness upon obedience to orders was
as funny as comedy. One little chap,
the littlest of all, was simply the fun
in earnest in his efforts to get the
movements, but not having eyes in the
back of his head, and depending chief
ly on the gestures of his companions
who stood in the rear his antics simply
brought forth shrieks of laughter from
the on lockers. The raglan and the
curtain ball We're novel features.
The charm of the affair as IL whole

done in class and the mistakes were
but part of ordinary experiences. There
are 1876 members in the classes but only

A team of horses belon sing to Jacob

while in the Delaware and Hudson

AS sbe team was about to become en-

wagon tongue was broken in several

That was the extent of the damages,
but there is on telling what would

When the righteousness of the situa-
ton came upon the teacher she en-
joyed a good laugh and after sending
two of the girl pupils to ring the bell
went on with her days duties.
: Once during the morning she had oc-
casion to scan the boys faces search
ingly for a look that would betray
the author of a very audible "scab,
scab." that accompanied the approach
to the teachers desk of one of the
two girls who had rung the bell. The
teachers forboding frown was effec-

tions We're heard that session.
In the afternoon the teacher had
forgotten all about the union. but it
was forcibly recalled to her when
she found occasion to send to Secrc-
tary Fellows office for some supplies.
This chore, above all others. was a.
joy and delight to the one selected to
perform It. So desirable was it to the
boys, that the teacher used it as a
means of rewarding good behavior or
excellence in recitation. 1t meant an
hours freedom from confinement and
made the chosen one the envy of the
whole school.

able hiss, was the extent Of the de-
monstration. It's perpetrator was not

The teacher quite enjoyed the
"union" on Monday and Tuesday. It
was really amsuing to see the strlk-
ers scowl at the girls who rang the
bell, erased the board and performed
the various other little chores about

when the teacher was passing out OF

by those nearly three-score urchins
trying to assume an air of total un.
concern that would say to the teacher.
"Oh, we amt doing anything. just

The teacher came to school the next

"Now-now, say Miss -. Now"
the ringleader stammered. in a vain
attempt to find words in which to
message his mission.
The tone of the boys voice and the
