Orleans School Notes.

Events were so crowded during the
last two weeks of school this year
that one Of considerable interest new
er received announcement. And so ct
this late date, the former principal
wishes to express the thanks of the
school to Fred Bennett for the en-
graved name plates he presented
them to attach to the pictures and
other gifts made the school, thus en-
abling the pupils to remember their
kind benefactors.
The pupils and patrons will be
pleased to learn that Just before the
close Of school the art appreciation
class selected some more >statuary to
adorn their building. The four mas
terpieces selected are copies among
the best known to American art low
Iers: mike victory Of Samothrace,"
drapery, the "Discobolus," by Myron,
who was famous for his statutes Of
athletics, the bust OF Longfellow,
copied from the famous one in West
minister Abbey,-and the bust of Cen
eral Washington by Houdon. Sun
set on the Meadow, was also. added
to the high school collection Of pic
lures.
In addition to the above purchased
for the high school, the following art
pictures were procured for the grades,
dance of the Nymphs," avenue of
Trees" "Pot of Basil" "Cat and Kit
tens at Play" "Pied Piper of Hame-
ln," 1.-TWO Mothers" and the "Dis-
tinguished Member of the Humane
Society" Five of the above pictures
are in colors.
The former principal regrets that
mention of the above was not in
cluded in his school report for the

made from funds raised by the pu-
pills.
