Editor Banner :—Bear Sir :—It w*» the pleasure of the writer to at tend a picnic at Oak Grove Academy, Clarke Co., on Friday, June 25th, which was a most enjoyable affair. Le iving our starting point, we em barked in a two horse wagon, (which only had ten souls on board), and af ter a jolly jolting ride, over a very new tough road fora few miles we arrived ai Oak Grove about nine o’clock, and fnnnd a large crowd of happy boya and girls, young meu and maidens, and older ueaus with others still ar riving. All seemed to be in a immor and high spirits. A fine er coming on about eleven o’clock, caused a general stampede into the house, tinder wagous and umbrellas, into top buggies etc. As the rain was needed very much all seemed to enjoy the shower and none seemed to care how long it poured. As there was to be no regular examination, the exer cises o}«ned with speeches by the small scholars of the school, both boya and girls, which was followed by read ing some, select pieces by a few otthe young misses. The speeches and readjug were both delivered in a very creditable manner, especially for such young heads,|and reflects great credit upon the teacher for hi- energy and perseverauce in training the minds of the young. But the most pleasing feature of the morning was the spell- iny; match, which was engaged in by I believe almost the entire school, divided into two classes; each scholar two trials at the word. All of uitled themselves in a most ;t manner; but I must ma’ce especial mention of the little Misses, Hattie Smith, Ida Cbeny and Louie Bradherry, who were the three last to leave the floor; 31iss Louie, being the last one of the three. Sue con tinued to hold the floor by herself for sometime. She- is certainly the best speller in the school, aud she is only about ten years oi age. The teacher Prolesior Harris, is a gentleman ol fine personal appearance, aud from wliat 1 can learn is a scholar of iio small reputation, by Ihe way, he seems to be quite a lady* man too. As I observed that he was very at tentive to at least one ot the fair ladies among the large number who graced the picnic with their presence. After the exercises ot the morning were over dinner was announced, aud to a hum gry man, the sight that the ladies spread upon the tables, was really temptiug, suffice it to ray, all got plenty to vat and theie was a g eat deal left. Alter dinner, all weic left, to.piuii.se themselves in Midi ways as they chose. Some of the young men and ladies playing croquet, while a few men and hoys engaged in a reg ular old iashioned game ot marbles. All present were very much dis appointed on account ot Mr. Thomas, ot Alliens, not being there to make the speech which wa* promised, bus iness calling him to Atlanta I believe was the reason. With • ongralula- tions to the patrons of Oak Grove Academy, on their success in secu ring such a valuable teacher, aud with tha hope that we may all live to sec many happy returns of the picuiu of Friday June 25th, 1880. 1 respect fully subscribe myself.
