PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.
The sixth grade will have exercises
Friday afternoon. ,
The little people of the primary
rooms remembered their inenua
throughout the building by sending
them dainty little May baskets, which
wero highly appreciated by the re
cipients.
The ninth erade pupils are deter- -
mined to have some graason the school
house lawn. Their latest venture is
putting in four hundred feet of sub
Irrigation pipe. Mr. Brooks, who fur
nished the pipe and placed it, thinks
the scholars are good at digging.
That beautiful May basket left at tbo
borne of Prof. Gregory was one ot the
most daintily arranged masses of
flowers that be has seen for many a
day. The bearers of the lovely tribute
lorgot to leave tneir cards so tnu puo
11c acknowledgement Is rendered.
J. H. Whitman, of the school board.
has spent several days visiting the
school, and has gone over the ground
systematically, beginning with the low
est grade. He was accompanied by W.
D. Beidleman, also a member of the .
board, who has visited us before. The
visits ol our patrons give us much,
pleasure and encourage the pupils.
Tbe seventh, grade was blessed by a
little, bird coming and building her nest
in bne of our house plants qunqg vaca
tion. We loft our plants out on the
outside of the window, On Monday
morning when we came to school the
nest hn3 one pj-f in it, and on Tuesday
.v,ti i'oif Mtt Zdt We are all very
befall the little birds. ; -
Patrons of the school will be more
surprised than were the teachers to
learn that the total of all visits made
in the different grades by parents and
friends of tbe school since the begin
ning of this school year is 005. Each
teacher knew that many friends.. bad:
visited in her room, but not until tbe
total was tuken a few days ago was it
supposed thut there were so many in
all. The calls of our friends during
the year have been very beneficial lo
teachers and pupils. If there is a
parent or friend of the school in town
who has not been in to see us we would
rejoice to welcome you any day and
those who huve been with us will
kindly remember thai our latch string
is always out. Everv member of the
school board tuu visited each grade at
least once.

Will Resist the Surt.
From the Salem Journal.
Secretary of State Kincaid will om
ploy counsel to resist the suit brought to
compel him to issue warrants for claims
ntminnt the stnte. It is understood that
AttorneV-General Idleman has positive
views on the side against Air. Ktncaia. it
is not known definitely who all will bo
lawyers for the state, but N. B. Knight
of Salem has been retained. Mr. Knight
has earnest convictions that Secretary
Kincaid bus pursued the right course
under the constitution. It is probable
that A. 0. Woodstock, of Eugeno, will
also be employed. Tho case will be
contorted to a finish. ; .
Mr. D. P. Dayis, a prominent llvory
mnn nnd merchant of Goshen, Va., has

of one bottle completed oured him. For
