School colsed last Friday. May Z,
at this place with examinations by
the pupils Of Prof. NJ. l.. Parker's
room and songs and recitations by
the little boys and girls Of Miss Cor
della Bearden's department.. Owing
to the busy season the school had
greatly decreased in numbers, which
prevented a more extensive program.
At the noon hour a sumptuous repast
was spread beneath the shady oaks,
to which all had free access, and it is
needless to say that all did justice to
this most important feature OF the
days program. Superintendent w.
G. HuShs was unavoidably detained
from coming, and while it was q
great disappointment to the assem-
blage in not hearing one of Mr..
Hughs' good talks, his place was ad-
mirably supplied by S. u. Stribling, a
former teacher of this school, and
one of our hearty supporters in re-
gard to all educational advantages.
Mr.. Stribing talked along the line
Of school discipline and school work
in general, and like all his previous
addresses, this was no exception. Our
country needs more just such men.
