Miss Magdalene Carter will carry So

prominent visitors last week, who
came especially to visit the Manual

the last week of actual classroom work
and Prof. Smith was very anxious that
the twelve colored citizens who so gen
erously contributed toward the gas and
coal ranges used in the cooking de-
partment should be present and watch
the pupils at work and observe the
methods used in the department. An
agreeable and palatable surprise await
ed the guests as they were served to
cake and sherbet in the dining-room of
the department. The day was very hot
and the guests were very much re-
freshed by the sherbet. Miss e. B.
Moore, the head of the Cooking De
partment, presided Under her instruc-
ton the pupils have done excellent
work, which reflects credit upon their
teacher. Among the visitors present

PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The first rehearsal of the commence
ment program took place last Friday
before the entire school. With the eX-
ception of a few minor criticisms, the
practice was satisfactory. The saluta-
torian and valedictorian acquitted
themselves creditably. Neither have
made any large pretentions to oratory
during the High School course, but by
constant and frequent drill, they have
reached a high state Of perfection and
will be able to interest their hearers

The game throughout the drst half
was a hammer and tongs AFFAIR, marked
by pretty passing and accurate shooting.
This % the last hrne that these two
teams VIII play this season, as the Tri-
city schedule Is fast coming TO a close.
The fight for hrst place honors and
the Old rivaly between the two teams
was also responsible for the swiftness
OF the play.
The second half was much slower than
the first. the Baltimore team being al
ways the aggressor. The team play of
the visitors was the finest seen in the
local gymnasium this season. difficult
passes and shots being handled with ease
by the Baltimore enthusiasts. The work
of Jones and Williams was also of the
noticeable variety.
