CLOSING EXERCISES
Rebel Creek School End Of
Successful Term


Dear Sir-Think.ng a few lines regard
ing the close of the present term of
school at this pace may be of some in
terest to some of your many readers will
tention.
The winter term closed Friday, the 18th
inst, Miss Pear Snapp, teacher. Owing
10 the sparseiy sett.ed condition Of the
surrounding country the attendance was
small; but like many things met with IN
our experience, should not be judged by
quantity or number" but should be esti-
mated by merit.
The exercises were very interesting.
without any effort at display. Some
worthy of mention were the foAowlng:
Me.ody, which was very interesting and
delivered in very cred.tab.e manner.
Dande.ion, by Miss Alma Hoskins
reciiation), was delivered in manner
which stamps the young lady as one en-
dowed with more than ordinary talent
in s.ocution and mim.cry, and under "a
vorable circums tances she will elicit more
than passing notice.
THE Watch of the Eag.e' Gecitation)
was delivered by Master Tommy Mel
ody in manner leaving no room for
criticism.
Prominent among the exercises was the
Tin Roof Band" by Caroline Melody.
This was an interesting recitation and de-
ivered in a pleasing manner.
But by far the most interesting and
creditab e part of the exercises was a
brief review of the pupils in their several
studies of the term ending with this re-
view. Fiattery would be superfiuous and
il--timed on this occasion. A careful 10
view in each branch with each pupil
showed wonderful proficiency, and in lieu
of a superficial Gaming thorough and
practical course has been pursued by the
very efficient instructor, A problem in
geometry was so4ved and thoroughly
demonstrated by Master Tommy .ody,
WHICH Wouu 10 circuit 10 pupii IN
graduating c4ass in the University.
Interspersed with the exercises were
some fine musical selections rendered by
he teacher, MISS Snapp, and Archie
Stone, Miss Snapp paying the guitar and
Master Stone an instrument something
ike an ACCORDION, but in lieu of the bel
.ows a mouthpiece supplied the wind.
To the writer it looked like cross be-
tween an overgrown grasshopper and a
centipede-but regard ess of appearances
it got there al the same"
The final piece. "C.ose of Term" by
Archie Me ody, will long be remembered
by both teacher and pupils.
There were several visitors present,
who. upon the invitation of the teacner,
handed out some wel-deserved compii-
ments to the teacher. who, in the humble
opinion of the writer. is deserving Of
more than passing notice for her ability
and the apparently faithful manner in
which she has discharged her duty.
AS the Stone Hatchet," freshly ground.
will inform you of the dongs of Rebel
Creek, / viii leave the task to him and
assure you he will do it justice. Will only
add that our old friend Snapp is making
extensive improvements and is still May
or of Rebel Creek. Yours truly,
JACK PLANE.

Auto Races
at the Central

The following letter is being sent OH,
by President Mayo Of the Central
Maine Fair Association to automobile
! owners Of the State:
The management OF the Central
Maine Fair Association purposes hold
| ing an automobile contest during its
fair. which occurs the third week OF
September, in this city, and desires to
make it a prominent feature OF this
great event.
This contest will be run eff in the fol-
| lowing manner: Eight machines will
be arranged back to back. making four
| in row. They will start from tn,
judges stand in opposite directions.
with their normal load Of people, sim
| ultaneously. and drive around the track
three miles. The cups. three in num-
Der, will be awarded to those who make
the time nearest to Is miles per hour.
At the end of each mile cach car will be
brought to a full stop, Dut the engines
will not stop, the passengers will alight
and Renter the car. when it will be
again started. An entry fee of 81 will
be charged for each contestant, which
will entitle him to free admission to the
grounds and proper storage for his car
during the fair.
We enclose you under this cover an
entry blank. and hope to have the
pleasure Of your assisting us in MAX
ing this. the arst automobile contest in
the State to be ona of sufficient I'M
portance to merit its continuance.
If you do not care TO enter the con-
test, this is to inform sou that we can
give you storage for your car on the
grounds at the nominal sum OF so
cents per day. A Waterman will be in
constant attendance day and night. If
any owners should desire n speed con-
test, and a sufficient number should
signify their wish, we will do all in our
power to arrange the same.
The track will be sprinkled sufficient.
ly to lay the dust. and the races will
begin at . =. NJ, on the opening night
of the Fair, and continue each night,
or until such time as all cars have had
the opportunity to compete. To this
end we would suggest If you have
preference for any particular evening
that you would signify the same to us
when you make your entry. The trace
is brilliantly illuminated by large
number of electric lights, so there need
be no fear OF an accident.
Any suggestions in regard to this
event, tending to make it popular with
Maine automobilists will he gratefully
received by the management.
Yours respectfully,
Z. P. MAYO.
President.

1t will be seen from the above letter
that the Central Maine Fair is to make
the evening feature automobiles in
stead of the usual matinee racing. AL
ready Mr.. Mayo has received assur-
ances from large number Of automo-
bile owners in the State that they will
enter their machines, and practically
every one Of the local owners has
agreed to. The contest will be unique
in that nothing like it has ever been
attempted in the State before. There
have been speed contests and things
Of that kind, but this is the first one
where the skill and knowledge of his
machine by the owner will win the
prize.
1t Is expected that there will be auto
mobiles enough entered so that several
of the contests can be run off each eve
ming. 1t is probable that after them
there will be at least one matinee race
but the features of the evening
are to be the automobiles. There
is now some talk by the members
OF the automobile clubs Of Maine
OF having runs to the city at the
time of the fair. If the clubs do, it will
mean that there will be over a hundred
machines present on that day. Prac-
tically all of them will be entered in
this contest. so that some will remain
over for another day,
There is also good prospect of q speed
contest, and several men in the State,
including one or two local owners, have
spoken about one. If there are men
enough who have machines that they
want to enter in sucn a contest to make
1t interesting. suitable prize will be
hung up. II there is a race, it will be a
good one.
The machine owners Of the city are
very much interested in the meet. and
dong all possible in the way of sug-
| Niio ohClS VI ttlu " MAKE tn1S
part OF the fair success. Everyone
VINO comes here with a machine will be
sure that he will be we'll treated for the
matter will be in charge of local auto
mobile owners who will do for the
visitors, just what they would want
zone for them if they were going some-
where else. 1t cannot for these reasons
