The Final Examinations.
3 be McCoy mil public school had its
final examinations yesterday. A larger
number of parents and friends of the
school were out than usual, showing an
increasing interest in the school. But
tho principal thinks there is too little
visiting by the parents during tbe term.
From yesterday’s work one would con
clude that teachers and pupils bavo
done their work well. There were two
features to the examinations that de
serve special mention. The fancy patch-
work done by Mrs. Phillips’ class of
girls, under her supervision, after regu
lar school hours, reliecta much credit on
the teacher and pupils. This is the
second class A.
Mrs. Catiedge's class has among them
a regularly organized literary society
which, every Friday afternoon, had a
programme, prepared by themselves,
consisting of songs, recitations, debate
essays, etc. For this occasion they had
a special programme which they went
through very creditably. Tills is the
third grade.
Americus has no need to be ashamed
of her colored schools and she certainly
docs well by them.
Their concert exercises will be held
tho opera house Monday night.
