The city schools closed last Friday
for the Christmas vacation. Work will
be resumed on Monday, January 3.
Some appropriate exercises marked
the closing of the fall session at the
different schools The exercise at the
West End school was particularly at
tractive, consisting Of Well-planned
and Well-rendered program Of an nour
and half. The exercises were held in
the large hall upstairs in the school
building. The primary department at
Speers Street school, consisting of the
first four grades, alsorender ed a very
beautiful program. More than thirty
mothers were present to enjoy it. 1t
was so good that it was repeated by
request. Most of the grades in all the
schools were impressed in some in
structive way with the spirit Of the
Christmas season, and its many val
liable lessons.
At the High school on Thursday af-
ternoon an informal recel tion in the
nature of a bazaar and Christmas tree
was given. A most enjoyable feature
of the occasion was cake walk. AL
together the children made $14.10,
which will be used in paying for an
up-to-date, standard unabridged die
tionary.
Friday afternoon at the High school
joint debate was held between the
Waverly and the Athenean Literary
societies on the subject: Resolved,
That our army and navy should be ma
terally increased" The Waverly, rep
resented by Misses Annie Kinard,
Kathleen Wendt and Irene Hunt,
championed the affirmative, while the
Athenian, upheld by Messrs. Joan Hig-

Tended the negative. The affirmative
won.

recital at High school.
