Time and space forbid giving lull details of the program but wo wijl bticfly say that the occasion w.ss one of rare enjoyment and perfect success. 'J be examinations were thorough and gave perfect satisfaction both to patrons aud spectators, showing that the pupils had made rapid progress in their studies and that they had not been neglected by their teacher*. The pieces recited were well selected and most beautifully rendered. The pupils had evidently been well drilled m their speeches and recita tions. The tableaux and charades wore just splendid and the vocal solos by Misses Ada and Sue Lee Goolsby accompanied on the piano by Miss Cora Atkinson were superb We are sorry that time and space prevent ue from giving amors elab orate account of the program as it so richly deserves. The most laughable feature of the occasion was the com ic recitation by Prof. Neal, lie is a perfect mimic and is c'ectnfied with wit and humor, lhs closing remarks to the audience on Tuesday night were however very earnest and appropriate and were touching in sentiment wiich Hillsboro has a school of sho may well be proud and tattlers to whom sho should ieol gratftul.
