TOMBSTONE ACADEMY.
Closed Last Friday-A Successful
Session-Prof. Holloway Gave
.1:Wo Prizes for Spelling.

The closing exercises Of Johnstone
academy, taught for the past year
by Prof. J. B. ONeal Holloway,
were held on Friday afternoon.
Short talks We're made to the
pupils and a few of the patrons, who
were present, by E. II. Aull, editor
of The Herald and News, and
President Harms, Of Newberry COL
lege. Prof. Holloway also gave the
pupils a parting talk, and stated that
it had been very pleasant years
work for him, that there had been
absolutely no friction and every
thing had moved along smoothly.
The school was in session for seven
months, and during that time for sew
eral months there was an assistant
teacher. The people of this COM
munity are fortunate in being able
to secure the services of so excellent
a teacher as Prof. Holloway, and it
would be well for them to increase
their income and run the school for
eight or nine months.
Prof. Holloway is a teacher of
long experience and takes great in
terest in the work.
He gave during the past session
two prizes, beautiful gold initial
pins, to that pupil in the fifth grade
and seventh grade respectively, who
made the best mark in spelling. The
prize was awarded in the fifth grade
to Miss Ruth Wilson, who had miss
ed only one word during the term.
There were two other members Of
this grade, Thomas 'Cromer and john
ME Buzhardt, who had stopped school
some weeks ago, and, therefore, were
not considered in the contest, who
had up to that time made perfect
marks in spelling: The presentation
of the pin to Miss Wilson, was made
by Mr.. E. 81. Aull.
The prize in the seventh grade was
won by Miss Bessie Boozer, presen-
tation being by President Harms.
