Tuesday and yesterday were the two public days of the closing ex ercises of the CaGersville public schools. Tuesday occurred the elocution contest and yesterday was Commencement day r . The exercises on bith these days were very interesting, and were well attended by the public. The elocution contest on Tues day put the best declairaers of the several grades of the schools on their mettle, and was a spirited contest, each contestant evincing creditable powers, and making the task wf naming by the judges those entitled to the medals a difficult one. As explained last wees, the contestants were divided into two divisions, the junior and senior, and one medal was awarded in each division. The junior‘division em braced contestants selected from the first four grades of the schools and the senior division from the sixth grade and high school. The contestants were selected from the participants in general declama tion exercises at the rooms two "weeks ago. The judges were originally un known, even to one an >ther, and immediately after the u -dest met and made their decision, which was sealed and handed to the su perintendent, to be opened and announced at the close ot Wednes day’s exercises.
