nesday evening, everything 60
ing off smoothly. The building
was filled to overflowing and all
enjoyed to the fullest extent the

gave a forcible address, after
which w. e. Ball, chairman Of
the school board, presented the
Class with their diplomas.
There were seven graduates
this year, being as follows: Will

Of seventy-two. The largest

for more school room.
The School this year fulfilled
all the requirements for a STAN

well rendered showing the
teachers had taken great pains
in training the children to per-
form their respective parts.
Where all did well it would be
invidious to make comparisons.
Each pupil that took part
showed careful training by the
teachers. Idon't think Newport
has ever had as good a school as
during the past year. 1t takes
lots Of money to run the school
and there ought to be good
work. Prof. Dawkins has la
bored hard to bring the school
up to high state of efficiency

ers has succeeded. Mr.. Daw-
