School Closing.

Mr.. j. w. Dupler, of near Rock
bridge closed another very sue
cessful term of school at Pleasant
Valley, last Saturday March both,
The forenoon was spent in the
regular recitations, when they
were all dismissed for while un-
til dinner was prepared, when
they were all called in the house.
And, Oh, such a dinner. 1t just
hurt our eyes. Bread, chicken,
pie and cake and oh my, 81 many
other things to numerous to men
tion. Mr.. Samuel Nihiser was
the champion cake eater. He eat
one whole cake, 40 they say, we
! don't know how true 1t is.
Mr.. Erwin Ball was the cham
pion pie eater, We couldn't find
out how much he did eat. We
havn't heard from him since, may
be he is dead, we don't know.
After dinner, the boys had a
small game of ball, which was
fine after they got started Gro
yer Nihiser was the champion ball
player. He would steal bases like
some people steal corn; he would
do il on the sneak.
The afternoon was spent in
declamations and dialogues, which
was very, interesting to all, They
said the best dialogue was, "Goin
Somewhere" by boy and girl,
and several others. They said
the most comical part about ii was
the way the old man and woman
was dressed.
Another good dialogue WAS by
two boys in which one asks the
other what he was doing. He
said she was speeulating In pigs.
The other said show did you come
out" He said ~ came out on the
hog" The music on the "Talk-
ing Machine" by Mr.. Weltner,
