Conclusion.
do not wish to close this report
without expressing my deep apprecia-
ton Of the assistance rendered me
by my tseachers.
There is no factor connected with the
school that is of more Importance
than its corps Of teach 'rs In this
respect, Pearl High School has been
especially fortunate. All of her teach
ers, both men and women, hold de,
grees from colleges and are experience
ed teachers. This greatly enhances
the efficiency and reputation of the
school. To You, also, Mr.. Superinten-
dent for your sagacious advice, mag
unanimous direction and unfaltering
support, l feel deeply obligated. To
the members Of the Board of Educa-
lions, for many acts of courtesy and
l wish also to acknowledge
my indebtedness.

Moving Time,

Again the season arrived and has about
passed when many families throughout
this county make change of abode. In
1hurmont moving has been in progress
for the post two weeks and it is scarcely
yet finished.
Generally, we are interested in know
ing whether or not our town has lost or
gained in population at this period of the
year. After looking about we can say
that at this time there are eight more
families in town than had been several
weeks ago, namely, those of George Bus
sard, of near Catoctin; "Dick" Miller of
Graceham; George English of Frederick,
l.. C. Barnes and l.. j. Kemp of Union
Bridge; Arnold Willhide of Eylers' VAL
ley; l.. C. Smith of Walkersville, and j.
d. Fietz of near Woodsboro, and Theo-
dore Beard, of near Middleburg.
Other new people in the community
are the Messrs Ahalt who purchased the
Measell and Bussard farms, and Mr..
Brandenburg who purchased Geo. Will
hides farm east of town. All three of
the above families are from the rich ag-
ricultural country of Middletown Valley.

FORD'S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week April 7th. The remarkable play
Of American life
"THE GOVERNORS LADY"
A play in three acts and prologue in
Child's an entire season at the Republic
Theatre, N. Y. Original Company.
1.-The Governors Lady," which proved
the dramatic sensation of the season at
the Metropolis during the run of an entire
season, is announced for an early pro-
duction in this city.
There can be no doubt that in ''The
Governor Lady" We have at last the
great American play. In no drama has
the divorce question been so deity, deli
cately and strikingly handled as it has
been by Miss Alice Bradley. The play
indicates a moral without preaching it
and too obvious attempt to drive home
moral.
David Belasco produced Miss Bradley's
play on the assumption that in "The
Governor Lady" both of the dominan t
characters were right and both were
wrong, and how this is worked out with
its truly Belascoan admixture of tears
and laughter is a story of marvellous
holding power.
In scenic equipment, in remarkable at
tention to detail. Mr.. Belasco has never
done anything more wonderful, and in
casting the play both he and Mr.. Elliott
are to be congratulated on having
achieved a triumph, for there are few
better players gathered anywhere in
America in one company than are En-
nett Corrigan, Emma Dunn, Gladys
Hanson, Terese Maxwell Conover, King
Walker, William II. Tooker and every
one of the thirty others in the long cast.
