BLOOMINGTON
LECTURE COURSES

Some of the young people or our
sister village of North Andover
have secured a first class lecture
course of FIVE numbers, the first
number being billed for Oct. Is.
On that occasion the Lincoln male
quartette will appear. Miss Sara
Blotcky, dramatic reader and
reciter, will assist in the entertain
ment. 1t is the purpose of the
promoters OF the Bloomington
course to cooperate with the North
Andover folks in promoting the well
fare of the two courses. So it is
expected that there will be much
visiting back and forth. The first
number of the Bloomington course
occurred last evening, when Brush,
the magician, assisted by Stett, the
musician, entertained to the delight
of all. The people should give
these entertainments liberal patron
age, as they are worthy of your
consideration.
SCHOOLS PROGRESSING.
School attendance is the largest
on record. Prof. Aolt seems to be
the right man in the right place,
and his assistants could run the
institution without help. They all
move forward as one man, (Or
woman,) accomplishing good re
suits. Miss Reeds work in the new
department for the deaf is revela
ton to all hitherto unacquainted
with instruction of that kind.
MORE WALKS.
S. A. Hatch has Ibis premises all
neatly fixed up with cement walks.
Oscar Selle did the job. which is pro-
.nounced good by all capable judges.
Oscar learned the trade of Jens
Jensen, and he is now ready to con-
tract for other good jobs.
