February 22, that day to which we attribute the birth of George Washington, this country's first president, was observed this year by the scholars of our schools in a very fitting manner, a manner which brings inuch praise and honor to the names of those partaking in the celebrity of such a man.

Shortly after 2 o'clock each room waa dismissed and formed in one long line of march, and to the music by the band, they paraded around the block, back to the school house. We were surprised at the number of scholars. We had no idea there waa such an attendance to our schools, and when we see then marching two abreast, the line extends nearly a block with flags floating and banners waving, we can't help but utter expressions to their praise. We are proud of them In the different rooms there were excellent exercises given, varied in manner and which proved to be very interesting. Seemingly no pains were spared to make this a "big" day long to be remembered, and yet literary -exercises are had in each room twice a month.

But with the large attendance of the patrons and friends upon this special occasion, the matter was more impressive perhaps than at other times. Washington's birthday is being more enthusiastically observed than Fourth of July. At night, in the opera house, the G. A. B.

and its auxiliaries, prolonged the abservation of this great day. Here was a very interesting program listened to. This program consisted of songs by the choir, an essay by Miss Nona Wallace, an oration by Thos. Taylor, and recitations by Misses Clara Holliday and Pearl Parker. J.

W. Forney made the principal address of the evening, followed by Tip North and Elder Arthur. Music was furnished by the Little Phil Band. This was followed by a big sup per, which was heartily enjoyed. We are al ways glad to be present at occasions of this kind and by the interest manifested by the largo attendance wo are sure many others arc of the same joyful mind.

Then when next year shall come, if we be permitted to live, let's add one more link to the increasing chain of events of patriotism and our joys shall be more complete.
