call him from his earthly home to
a home beyond where he will await
his loved ones to join him.
Dear father, so brave, so good, so
true:
So patient all his sufferings through
To deaths dark tide;
So sweet, so pure, without a stain,
So noble that through days of pain
He soothed our fears with hopes

And yet he died.
AS time still goes his weary round
There's left to us but the little
mound
We kneeI beside;
And as we wet it with our tears,
And talk about those happy years
Ere father died.
And thus the days must come anC

Till borne on times unceasing flow
Beyond the tide.
We see him wave with angel hand
Our welcome to fairer land

Why father died.

table covers. linens, etc. There are also
specimens of dressmaking, handmade,
of the finest character The culinary
branch is also well represented. The
work is all wonderful. The manual
training, the first year for this branch
in the school, is surprising; it is re-
markablc. There are tables, stands,
hook cases cases and porch swings, and some
of them are equal almost to the prod
uct OF the finest trained mechanic. They
are apparently as well done as it is pos
ible to attain. This branch has been
without cost to the school, with no ad-
ditional outlay except the cost of the
material, which was provided for by a
subscription of 50 from each pupil.
Superintendent Mute took charge of the
work of training the boys, and the re-
suits were shown in the exhibition.
The exhibition complete demonstrat-
conclusively that Union City has fine
school. Comparatively we are not GER
tain how to measure, but from all we
hear this school stands ahead of any in
cities OF the same population and even
larger as far as is known in the South
Whether it excels or not matters little
SO long as it brings results. Each year
shows, however, that it is in the march
OF progress. Its methods have been
advanced and its preparation is broader
and better in every way. II is some-
times amusing to hear the Superin-
tendent remark that this is the best
year of the school, but If this were not
SO he had better retire. 1t is true that
the work is better every year, and that
the Superintendent, with the aid Of his
corps of teachers is to be credited with
the wonderful progress the school has
made.

CITY SCHOOL EXERCISES

Another school gear has been scored
by the City Schools Of Union City, and
the High School and Grammar School
have made new records along the line
OF educational work. School work is
like everything else. There is either
progress or retrogression. No business
can maintain standstilI, and neither
can school by any means hold a sta
tionary position. One must go forward
or backward in school work, and we are
glad to say that everything proves for

very large audience assembled to listen
to the baccalaureate sermon by Rev.

Church, preceded by an organ recital by
Mr.. Ownby. On Monday evening the

titled Elmer Muss Heiraten - No old

some comment from the pen of our So
ciety editor:
The German play given in the original
by graduates of the Union City High
School Monday evening in the High
School Assembly Hall was an accom-
plishment that owed the ability Of
these students as German scholars and
as players. The play, Elmer Muss
Heiraten" Zone Must Marry, was in
five acts, and its dialogue, skillfully
handled by Miss Pauline Caldwell, who
played the leading role of Louise, by
Miss Nina Wilson as an ambitious aunt
and by George Miles and Smith Gregory
Allen, suitors for the hand of Louise,
revealed the fluency Of the language
spoken by the players A summary Of
he plot was given by Prof. Mute before
he curtain. 1t was played without
scenery and its claim upon the audience
ay in the expression, which was amply
'evealed. Miss CALDWELL made very
weet and sincere Louise and Miss Will
ION made herself into an ample aunt
and naturally. George Miles
ooked extremely handsome in black
nustache and goatee and Smith Gregory
Allen proved himself fine German
professor. This is the first foreign play
yer produced in the South by any other
chool than an advanced college and it
effects credit upon the students and
eacher OF German.
