As it was a wet day I had to leave the plow, whicn gave me an opportunity to visit the school and hear the program. When he entered ihe school room Thursday morning he noticed that his pupils hud decorated his walls and windows with evergreens and other flowers on the sly. As the pupils assembled, he was presented w ith so many boiiets, the best our gardens could afford, that it took him all his spare time hi take care of them. Mrs. Ward informed him at the last recess that there was a program prepared, and asked him to give thechild ren half an hour to themselves, which was granted, of course. The pragram occupied the time from 3:30 o'clock to 4:30 p. in. and w as a total surprise to our teacher. It ended with an address by him in which he expressed his unworthiness, and thankful ness. On Friday morning his pupils pre sented him with a tine inkstand as a small token of their love and esteem. W. W. Ward, who bought the present did not get back from Portland in time on Thurs day and the pupils and we visitors were disappointed in not seeing the gift presented on his birthday.
