PARROT SCHOOL CLOSES.
Interesting Exercises Mark End
of Successful Term.

PARROTT, May 4.-W ednesuay night
we had one of the best concerts ever
heard from pupils of such tender age
and such short time in taking music.
Every pupil acquitted herself well,
and it was really surprising to see
their progress, especially little tots
six to eight years of age. We cannot
say too much in praise of Miss Griffith
and her work. She devoted her time
and talent to her pupils. and by her
untiring efforts has won golden Opin-
ions from her patrons, and in fact, the
admiration and esteem of our entire
community
Thursday at 9 a. N. the contest in
defamation by the boys and recita-
tions by the girls took place, 10 which
high order of talent was displayed by
everyone. It should be an incentive
to every parent who witnessed 1t,
showing what boys fresh from the
plow handles can do. We are proud
of our farmer boys, and are only sorry
that each could not have received a
prize, since each deserved one. The
prize was won bv Allen Kenyon, a
most magnetic young orator. Our
girls, TOO, are in no respect behind the
| boys. We are willing TO place them
in competition with any girls in the
state. The prize was awarded Miss
Marie May of COttontOn, Ala. though
the judges said it was most difficult
task to decide. ParrOtt can truly
boast of the talent of her girls Wher-
ever tried.
At IL o'clock the literary address
was delivered by Mr.. W. 2. Sewell of
| NJ -
guards of Our Republic" First, edu-
cation as the basis of all. Second,
modern civilization owes its progress
to education combined with equality
Third, our free institutions are pro,
tected bv the purity and virtue of
home life, and all these three climax
in Christianity. The whole address
was replete with good, sound sense,
and furnished food for earnest thought
| to all his hearers. He closed with a
talk to the school on the fine art of
foe living, which was calculated to
inspire fresher and higher aspirations
in the minds of the young. The whole
address proclaimed Mr.. Sewell as a
Young man of high intellect. a deep
thinker and close student of the needs
of the present time. He will be heard
from in the future.
Thursday night comedy was play
ed by the pupils of the school, assisted
by some of the young people, entitled
'In the Spiders Web" It was a sue
cess, in many lines displaying the ver-
satility of PARROTS young people. 1t
was most enjoyable.
This was the close of one of the
most successful school years ParrOtt
has ever enjoyed, and her citizens are
proud of her schools. To much praise
can not be given to Prof Collins and
his most splendid assistants, Misses
Windsor and Dowd, for their untiring
efforts, both in building up the school
and advancing the pupils. Their la.
bors this year place them in the front
rank of teachers. We wish for them a
pleasant vacation.

The representative took the propo-
sitions under consideration, and
reported to the officials that neith-
err of them could be accepted. A
committee, however, composed of
Messrs. A. H. Merrell of Eufaula, A.
j. Carver of Dawson and r. l.. Moye
of Cuthbert. was appointed TO see what
could be done toward securing cash
subscriptions to the roads in these
towns. Mr.. Carver, with the other
members of the committee, returned
to Dawson Monday at noon, and he
will make prospective canvass of the
city 10 a short time. 1t is not thought
though that an amount even approx

will be secured.
The same propositions were made
Saturday 10 the citizens of Columbus,
but that city also refused to accept
either OF them.
