From the Teachers.

An interest in the Public School
prompts me to say few words about
the unfortunate controversy that has
arisen in regard to the behavior at
tendant upon the public exercises Of
April Oath.
Exaggerated reports have been cur
rent. The behavior may be aptly de-
scribed as excessive applause between
the acts, too prolonged, noisy and dis
agreeable"-"talking in undertone,"
1t was after the close of the program
while the committee, consisting of the
Mayor, Boardmen and others) were alb
sent from the aall, making their de-
cisions, that the enthusiasm, tattribu,
ted at the time to the contest between
tine Athenian aud Qlympian Societies,
eliminated in an impatient outburst
This outbUrst consisted in whistling
stamping, cheers and pounding on
desks.
According to my observation, moth
ing occurred that could be styled "dis
graceful" and there was no actual in
terruption of the exercises.

You Will Be Happy if Well.
Paine's Celery
Compound
Bestows that Health and
Vigor that Makes Liv-
ing a Pleasure.

II you are sick and out-of-sorts, it is in your
power to make yourself healthy, strong, and
happy.
There is not the slightest reason why you
should go through life feeling sickly, miserable,
languid, and melancholic. To be well and
strong, means happiness and true JOY.
If you are sleepless, rheumatic, neuralgia,
dyspeptic, or have the shadows of disease
lowering over you; if you are not as bright,
energetic, and strong as you were some weeks
ago, the use of Paine's Celery Compound will
tone up and fortify your whole system, cleanse
the blood, correct digestion, sharpen the
appetite, and conduce TO restful sleep. Thous-
ands once in a half-dead condition owe their
present good health to the use of Paines
Celery Compound. Mr.. VIM. S. Gibson, of
Pleasureville, KY, who, through sickness and
suffering, was brought near the dark grave,
writes as follows, regarding his marvellous
cure:-
"I have been broken down in health and
strength, nervous system shattered, kidneys
out of order, had nervous and trembling spells
off and on for the last ten years. l have taken
three bottles of your Paine's Celery Compound
and all of the above mentioned troubles have
left me, and can now do good days work.
l go about my business all day long and it
don't worry me, and now feel better than l
have in ten years. l have good appetite,
and can eat and get around on foot as active
as when was boy. My age is 65 years."

From the Public School Pupils.

Feeling that there has gone abroad
wrong impression as a result of our
resolutions recently published, and
that this erroneous idea is doing injury
to the school, we, the pupils of the
higher grades in the Brookhaven Pub
lie School, take this method of correct
ing the error.
The resolutions were prepared as a
result of report that there was going
to be published in one of the local
papers a very radical article censur-
ing the pupils of the school for the
disorder which occurred here on the
evening of April oath. The purpose
Of the resolutions was to defend the
pupils against mistaken criticism and
to explain to the public that the dis
order which occurred was not prima
rily due to pupils of this school. It
was not our intention to convey the
idea that this disorder was rowdy,
outrageous, debasing, or even dis
graceful in the stronger meaning of
this word. The disorder mentioned
consisted solely in some low toned con-
versation during exercises and in
noisy and too prolonged applause be-
tween parts of the program. 1t GER
tainly was not disgraceful in the usual
sense of this word, nor was there any
actual interruption of exercises ex-
cept by conversation and too pro-
longed applause.
