all waiting for the speakers. This
was only a summer school, and the
teacher, Miss Conyers Allen, did
not have time to follow the usual
custom Of giving an exhibition. The
purpose was to have a day and ex-
~perienced speakers to arouse inter-
est and help the school along to bet

The people we're disappointed that
only II of the irvited speakers was
present. That speaker did the best

that Is sweeping over the country,

They have good farms and
pretty good crops even in this unfav-'

children-indeed they appear to be.
a most prolific people-and will in.
the course Of time have a large and
ftourishing school.
After the speaking-there was
only one speech-came the dinner.
That generally brings merriment and
good humor-and what q dinner
those people had! Other communi-
les might profit by their example, in
n respect at least. There was no
dividing off into squads. No, it was
all together-a big, long table, and
1t would hardly hold the good things
to eat. Then the hammer in
