Dr. Ryan is an easy, fluent and eloquent speaker, and It Is hoped that Dean Kehoe will be able to secure him for another oc- casion in the early future. Misses Maynie Brennan and Lorraine Pe- low in vocal solos and Misses Jean Lutz and Kate O'Neil in an instru- mental duet supped the musical part of the programme. Advantage was taken of this occasion to make the presentation of the twenty-dollar gold plece to Miss Helen Littlejohn, who obtained the highest number of marks in the separate school in the entrance examinations. Dean Kehoe offers this prize each year. Danfel Kenny, chairman of the separate school board, made the presentation. Rev. Dean McDonald, Portsmouth, accompanied Dr. Ryan, and gave a very interesting address also. A vote of thanks to Dr. Ryan was moved by T. D. O'Connor and seconded by Geogre Bauve. T. D. O'Connor acted as chairman. Mrs, E. S. Byers was summoned to Napanee Tuesday owing to the serious illness of her mother. Mr. and Mrs. Byers motored up. Mr. and Mrs. W. T.
