Concert At Lake. View.
The LakeView school closed
with a concert last Friday night,
attended by several hunderd peo
ple. *
The stage was tastefully, deco
rated with magnolios and other
beautiful and fragrant flowers.
The teachers, Prof. J. R. Strip
ling and Miss Reynolds, had la
bored earnestly to prepare the
pupils to present an interesting
program, and the result was a
gratifying success.
The exercises were lengthy and
varied as exhibitions at country
schools usually are, therefore it
would require too much space to
attempt a detailed report of the
exercises.
The music, and all the other
pieces were selected with care,
and. the Concert as a whole was
decidedly good. Many who at
tended say they have never seen
it surpassed. The program was
rather long, howeve, and several
of the pieces selected were not
presented, owing to the lateness
of the hour.
The children all acted well their
parts, and reflected credit upon
their teachers and themselves
The school has been well taught,
and as a rule the pupils have been
apt to learn.
Prof. Stripling requested me to
say that he most cordially thanks
the people for the assistance
rendered in preparing for the
concert.
The pupils think a great deal of
the teachers, and it was with sor
row they parted Friday night.
These teachers deserve much cred
it, for the school has never been
taught by better teachers-
I guess my last school days are
over, and with regret I think that
the pleasures of association with
my fellow pupils in the school
room and on the plav-ground are
passed. May you all strive har
der every school day, for there is
nothing equal to a good education,
for it prepares every boy and girl
for future success.
May the same pupils be with
the same teachers in the same
school house next year, but if not,
I hope you will have teachers that
wilrbe as good to you, as Prof.
Stripling and Mis$ Reynold have
been to us. G. M. H.

In Memory of Miss Lannie Means.
When the news reached Elko
Sunday at noon that Lannie was
dead, it caused many a heart to
ache. She had not yet blossom
ed into womanhood, but was a
bud, sweet and tender. She was
the eldest child of Mr. and Mrs.
W. L. Means, and was an elder
sister in deed and in truth. Her
manner and style would not im
press one that she was of so ten
der an age, for she had the care
and thought of one much older.
She was only fourteen, yet if her
little sisters and brothers could
only get to Lannie with their lit
tle troubles, it suited them as well
as mama. Her friends were num
bered by her acquaintences. She
was an obedient and affectionate
child, the pride and joy of both
parents and grand-parents. The
writer is very thankful that it
was his privilege to spend several
nights at her home only a short
time ago. During my stay she
was most attentive and anxious to
make me feel at home. She show
ed me several school reports; 100
was a prominent mark, for she
stood first in all her studies.
We cannot sing with the poet.
“We never prize the music, till
the sweet voiced bird has flown,”
for we have always prized Lannie
and it grieves our hearts sorely to
think we will never see her again
in this life. The blow does seem
so hard, but we will lingly sub
mit to the unerring Providence of
our Heavenly Father, Who does
all things for the best. Lannie is
not dead; she has only gone before
us to that Home beyond the skies
where she stands at the Pearly
gates beckoning loved ones to
come.
May God bless us all and help
us to follow those “Beckoning
Hands,” We’ll meet again* Bye
and Bye, In the realms of endless
Glory. We will meet, yes; Bye and
Bye. Cousin, Zollie.
[This most estimable young la
dy died in Macon, where her par
ents had made their home for
the purpose of securing the excel
lent school advantages of that ci
ty. We join the many friends of
the bereaved family in extending
sincere sympathy in the hours of
their great sorrow.-—-Ed.]

—-Potato .bugs are very destruc
tive to Irish potato plants in and
near Perry, the first ever known
here. The damage has not been
verry great, however, as a very
fair crop of potatoes had develops
ed before the bugs began their
work of destruction. A remedy
must be at hand before, the next
crop is planted.
—Tax Receiver Stafford will
complete his last round of ap
pointments at Byron to-day. He
will be at Perry on a special ap
pointment next Tuesday.
