The boys of the masonry department have some
nice work also and our flowers for decoration were
mostly furnished by Mr. Carrow. We wish to extend
our thanks for them, as they have added greatly to
the display.
The tailors have placed on exhibit some of the suits
for the boys who graduate.
The details of the shoe and harness department
were without an instructor, but have shown that they
were awake and on the job. The shoes they showed
were substantially repaired and the harness work was
deserving of credit also.
The farm and garden showed a nice line of grains
and field crops, samples of which are a credit to any
farm. We are expecting unusually fine products from
this department when the season is finished.
Owing to a lack of room the dairy department
could not show a demonstration of milking, but if any
one wants to see the job done right all he needs to do
is to report to the dairy at 4 p. m. any day and “ get
an eye full” —of milk—if the cow kicks.

ITEMS FROM THE TRADES
It is said the gardners are well pleased with the pros
pect of good weather for setting tomato plants since
the rain.
The industrial demonstration has received many
compliments, for which all departments are feeling
repaid in their efforts. The articles on display from
the various departments showed a considerable im
provement in design and workmanship over that
shown last year. We have one department that had
its first exhibit this year an^ it was very creditable
both in workmanship and design. The furniture by
the boys of the carpentry department is substantial in
design and well executed in workmanship. The ma
chine shop produced some very fiue tools, which are
better than before shown in that they are of practical
value and can be used.
The useful articles turned out by the forging shop
were a great attraction, and the boys who made them
can be justly proud of them.
The painters have shown that they know how to
finish the various articles turned over to them. Their
work was exceptionally good this year, both on wood
and iron.
The bakers made us hungry every time we looked
at the fine collection of cakes, gingerbread, pies, rolls
and cookies that were to be seen in the case set aside
for this use.
The operetta practice still goes on; we are improv
ing every time.
East week we took our final examinations in reading
and penmanship.
This Friday will be our last letter writing day for
this year. We regret that it is the last.
Herbariums are our main thoughts most of the time.
No herbariums, no diplomas. So there you are.
We’re trying to figure out what on earth made it
rain? W e’ve behaved the best we could. Still it rains.
Isn’t it queer that now we’re having our final ex
aminations we seem to forget everything we’ve ever
learned?
We just dread to see our geometry examination come
along. With all those lines, curves, circles, polygons,
triangles, parallelograms and such in our heads it’s no
wonder we get a little mixed once in a while.
Miss McDowell planted some beans quite a while
ago and put up two slender poles for them to climb
up. The beans were killed by plant lice and to the
astonishment of all one of the poles sent out a num
ber of leaves. Just take a look next time when pass
ing the laboratory.
The seniors all had a chance last week to see the
work being done in the various departments. All
went well and every-one was happy till we hit
the domestic science. Then we weakened. But no
wonder, for there were cakes, pies and pastry fit for a
king. All we did was give one long look and passed
out to look over the hospital.
