Atteuu&lnce III NuTAl SCHOOLS.
The Gazette is indebted &c
Superintendent Alleman for the
average percentage of attend.
ance in the rural schools of the

contest made for winning the
large United States flag offered
by the Lacoste Hardware store
at the beginning of the session to
that school showing the highest
average of attendance during the
year. The showing made by the
schools indicates the very high
mark attained by some of them,
and the creditable percentage in
general.
Thanks are due the Lacoste
store for it's practical manner of
showing interest in the public
schools.
The list is as follows:

morning at $50 o'clock, at the
residence of his father in Lafay-
cite. He was buried in the
Catholic cemetery on Monday at
10 o'clock a. m. The funeral
services were held in St. Johns

one. The sympathy of many
friends is extended to his family
in the loss of devoted son and
brother.

one who has been a dutiful
daughter, a kind sister, a faith.

friend.
May she rest in peace.

1t is with pleasure that I can report :,
steady improvement in the public roads of
the parish during the past two years. We
now have the foundation of a good system
of public roads and the foundation of a good
system of public schools, and these two in
situations are SO important and closely inter
depend INT as to demand the support of all
citizens in order that each system, nigh, be
built up 10 its highest standard of excellence.

On the Canadian side is the well
kept Victoria Park Through this a
driveway winds along the river to the
Dufferin Islands, which are formed by
rebellious branches of the Niagara
that have sought to avoid their fate by
going round about only to come out a
little nearer the crest of the torrent.
These islands are most attractive and
here every song of the mind may find
it's accompaniment. There are bridges
which span some of the swiftest cur
rents of the river and there are also
some safe and enchanting brooks
where children may play or poets
dream.
The shores of the islands are skirted
by the most delightful of lovers lanes
which are made safe as well as beauti-
full by rustic ratings along the waters
edge. Some of these walks lead back
into the more shaded hooks and all
along, Ipretty summer-houses and COM
Portable seats invite the strollers. s.-From
