So on during the evening these with the help of three othersâ€"Mr. Woodward, Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs. Poehlmanâ€"all Skilled in song and trained in the arts of the chief musican. singly or in groups of two, three or four, made the evening a delight and one to be remembered. 9. Not a little of the enjoyment was due to the dainty touch of Miss Stone on a new-{angled instrument called a piano. She has learned the soft tones that become the accompan- iment. over, a native of that city. 3. And after the peOple had gath- ered together, and a few words were said by one of the fathers of the Assembly by way of foreword, the entertainment began with a. piece of music from four men-singers of the Pity. Messrs. Armstrong, Schwindt, Hallman and Ross, singing together. They sang so well the people would not let them go but clapped their hands till they had come forth to sing another son". 4. One of the sisters of the Assem- bly, Miss Boddy with goodly presence and sweet voice sang a sad song, “Alone on the Raft”. It was so 6. Now, Smily was a famous man anda great artist from the Queen City and his chief business is to make men laugh. This he did so VveN. that the sourest, saddest, straightest face in the hall relaxed, softened, smiled and finally gave way to broad open-mouthed laughter. The simplest story, touched with the magic wand of his irresistable humor, became a living. moving picture, which ino variably brought peals of good-natur- ed laughter from all parts of the house. -u-vâ€"- 10. Not a dull number was ren- dered during the evening and all received a. hearty clap ofethanks before the Nation’s Anthem closed the meeting. 0. Then came before the people Mr. O. A. Smily, a skilled professor in the art of amusing: others. CHAPTER V. 1. On the morning of the becond day, the last great, day of the Assembly, the meeting opened with a paper from Mr. R. J. Scott on Order. _ ' " If“ CAALL U1 2. Among the brethren, Mr. Scott did not claim to have a. long experi- ence or severe trials but his thoughts were right. and his words were true. A time for everything and every- thing in its time. A timeâ€"table 7n too, consider her ways and be "'ise. CHAPTER Iv. The Evening Meetin’r. 1. In These in hath become the custom to provide social entertain- ment for'the members of visiting bodies such as this Assembly of the of old time that “Drink first diins. then claikens, then dead ens,- then (.atnns, ” so, drink like a fishâ€"water only. 14. When the discussion over this burnino question ended Miss Ida F. Irwin, a beloved sister £10m tne far East, read aloe-dutiful storv of how to deal with “' I'he Dull Pupil.” 15. This good Woman with her sweet voice and kindly manne ris the true. fxiend of unfortunate duli pup ls. 0, sisters deer will you not fol low her example? 0, biother go thou W i l3. \Vhen the hand-clapping had ceased Mr. W .' I. Sharp was asked to tell what he had learned from years of teaching Temperance. His grip of the question is good, his Knowledge full, and his application to the point. This brother is one of the fathers of the Assembly, and like the seer of old he raised his voice for higher morals and better Christian princi- ples. It. hath been well said by them of old time that “Drink first dims, then darkens, then deadens, then daznns,” so, drink like a fishâ€"water _-â€"â€".-r. -‘U methods were due to education, and surely proved the impo tunce cf the teacher’ 3 work. 12. These both Spake words of welcome to the members of the As- sembly. They counted it a privilege to be present and to hear what- was said. The great proyress of, and im- provements in the world angl its THE DURHAM ‘ h ls Wisdom and '5. Then followed a concise, welf- written story on the Teaching of Lit- erature by one Margaret, whom other name is Scott. Now be it known in the land, that Miss Scott hath a great name for much learning and profound wisdom, insoxnuch that the high and learned professors did reward her therefor with handsome ornaments of gold and silver, and be it hereafter known that this fair woman hath a gold medal for her great skill in the art of instructing. The paper was bright, the points pointed, analysis logical and diction well phrased. in- asmuch an her modest Speech hath won for this fair sister the admira- tion and esteem of the brethren. 4. The President then called on the August Ruler of the Assembly, I\. W. Campbell, surnamed the Inspec- tor. For a Spell this great and learn- ed chief discouised eloquently on the correct way tozpronounce worls and the best way to use the language Spoken by the: Assembly. The teachers being the priests of the profession should be care- ful of their speech in smal things as well in great. This was surely not asking too much. Ii they were too idle or indifferent to covet earnestly the best gifts then they should withdraw themselves from membership in the Assem- bly No other occupation and no recreation should cause them to neglect such things as would raise them in the goodwill of the [people who know and think. \Vith a print- ed list of words and sentences taken from themselves he enforced the saying, “Out of thine own mouth etc.,” 6. One of the wise men of the East was then called to his feet by the President. This was Mr. \V. J. Blakeston whose name is among the great and honored in the Country round about. Active and humble, the fame of his work has gone abroad in the land, and his words are dili- gently sought after. Many things did he desire to impress for which there is not now room even so much as to speak. but one thing is needlul and should be known to every trustee, that every teacher worthy of the name will attend the Assembly and trustees should see to it that their teacher does attend. 7. Now, the whole matter is ended. A new President, Mr. Geo. Slaughter 'of Flasher-ton, was appointed. The o. my. men 161101 rellowed on "The American Constitution.” The question is broad, the treatment was broader still, and as the speaker wax- ed forth with much eloquence he kept the members entranced for a great spell, inasmuch as they were not wont to hear such wisdom and Show of learning from a member of their own Council. Moreover their much cheering and clapping of hands showed great joy in the assembly. After this great oration was ended the common doings of the other members seemed tame when compared thereto. On reasembling in the after- noon, without preamble or prologue. the President called on Mr. Deutscb- man to show his way of getting quick and correct answers in simple reckoning. 2. This he did with much detail and great clearness. It: would be well if all followed in his. way for great good would be done thereby to all now growing up in this fair and goodly land. 3. Mr. MoNichol followed “The American Constitution.” 5. Now this brother with much humor and much vigor entertained and insrructed the Assembly for a. brief Space. He delighted his hear- ers with racy illustrations of his methods of saving time. Truly it was his happiest effort and his willingness to help as attested by the Scribe, will always keep him a favorite with the Assembly. He was accorded three hearty claps and a tiger. 6. The next was a learned paper on Composition from a scholarly but unassuming brother, Mr. Brgugh, from the North Country. The paper was so good, so appropriate, so full of wise words of direction and counsel, that it is to be printed in pamphlet form and a copy sent to each member of the Assembly. 7. Rev. Mr. Bray, another of the “ Liohts of the City” in a few words expressed his pleasure in being present and in recognizing the importance of the Teacher’s work. 0’-- v vâ€"‘. 8. When these things were ended, the clock showed that it was nigh unto the time when men adjourn to eat and so forthwith the Assembly adjourned and did eat. 3.
