WILLIAM WEBSTER, At Beatty's Store, Port Perry A SUCCESSFUL "OPEN NIGHT" Wednesday evening, April 17th, was a red letter occasion at the Port Perry High School. Every phase of the work of the school was open to the in- spection of the public, and a large number of people, young and old, took advantage of the opportunity to see what the school offers to the students. The teaching staff, under the leader- ' ship of Principal Gemmell, had taken a great deal of trouble to make a good exhibit of the school work. Notable among the exhibits were Art, under direction of Miss L. M. Harris; Latin, taught by Miss L. Spooner; Physical culture, by Miss Greenbank (girls), and Mr. Kerr (boys); Domestic Science, under the direction of Miss Greenbank; Farm Mechanics, taught by Mr. Gemmell, who 'was also responsible for the de monstrations in the Science room. Particular care was taken in the aaaanaaaalof2,aaaaaaavbgkqjrfdwlyp Domestic Science display; and the first and sccond year students are to be complimented for the good work done in sewing and cooking. A neat and informing exhibit was that illustrat- ing the source from which we secure our food supplied. It is somewhat startling to see how far "afield we travel in order to provide simple meals. The following list will give a good idea of this fact: __ Cinnamon from Batavia Tapioca from Java Raisins from Australia, California. Cloves from Zanzibar |. STRAND THEATRE, UXBRIDGE.

Some exhibits of good workmanship were made in the Farm Mechanic's display. This field is one worthy of every development, as it has a bearing on the life of every boy who can take his part in the work-a-day world. It would be a real advantage if some elementary lessons in the use of tools could be given to advanced pupils of the Public School. Of course the athletics were the centre of attraction. They always are. The students do excellent work, and it is a constant source of wonder how much endurance is developed by these strenuous means of exercise. The' Danish exercises are particularly interesting in their suitability for all round physical development. The "Open Night" idea is a good one. It will be a great advantage if the people become thoroughly ac- quainted with the work the school is doing. It is a good school, and has an excellent staff.

BN ETF Pps i A MOST PLEASING ADDRESS * Very interesting was the address given by Miss Laura Hambly, re- turned mission from China, on Thurs- day evening of last week in the United Church, Port Perry. The pictures which illustrated the address were of unusually good quality as a basis of information, particularly those of the Yang-tze River, and the various methods of transportation by land and water. Miss Hambly is thoroughly familiar with Chinese conditions and is hope- ful of good results from Christian missions, having had many evidences of the good accomplished in the past by this work. An intimate picture of life among ordinary Chinese revealed the fact that they have excellent qualities of charcater, and show the greatest loyalty and kindness in their dealings with each other and with the Christian missionaries. One of the most beautiful marks of appreciation by the Chinese for the work of Miss Hambly was seen in the gifts she received when leaving the field for a furlough. These gifts in- cluded pieces of needlework upon silk, that were of exquitite beauty. It was difficult to believe that such lovely pictures could be obtained by thous- ands upon thousands of finely stitched threads of silk. The. panels looked like paintings. Grove.

The president, Mrs. James Shunk, occupied the chair and led in the opening exercises. The devotional was taken by Mrs. F. Watson and Mrs. A. L. Orchard.
