Address and Presentation. Address and Presentation. THE DURHAM REVIEW Dear Teacher:â€" RISH LAKE. Edge Hill. It is with feelâ€" la=t Tues Probably, one of the most successfu concerts ever held in this vicinity was that which took place ir Dornoch Beparate School, Friday evening Dec. 19. Long before the beginning of the program, which was unavoridably delayâ€" ed a few moments later than announced the school house was crowded to its utmost < t[mcity a cirecuauwmstance which ever stimulates performers to their best efforts. This monster is known as the Scott Straight Line Sextuple Insetting and Folding Machine. Its enormous capaâ€" city of 72,000 papers per hour, printed, Kasted. cut anrd fo‘ided, will enable The lail and Empire to publish news an hour and a half later than at present. This mammoth press is one of the most upâ€"toâ€"date and complete machines ever manufactured. Part I of the program was rendered by the pupils who did themselves credit in solos, duetts, quartettes, recitations, diolog, arills and calisthenic exercises. All were good but we mention the * Good Night " drill, by 8 little tots, the Wand Drill by 8 girls all prettily costumed as being particularly good. Thegiris were Misses Ni Vasey, C Barry, M McKenna. M Gillen, H Dargavel. J Gillen, M Vasâ€" ey, N Barry, The singing was highly praised the quartettes being, boysâ€"W Drew, J Mckemm. W McDonald, W Vasey. Girlsâ€"N Vasey, C Barry, M McKenna. N. Barty, The soloists from form I were Misses H Barry C Vasey, H Vasey, Johnny Barry. from form V Miss Nellie Vasey. _ Among many good recitations were those by Misses lvy Dargavel and Mary Cumings. 4 One of the largest printing presses in the world, and undoubtedly the largest in Canada is shortly to be installed in the premises of The Mal and Empire, Toronto Part II was rendered by local talent and was of great variety and all enâ€" thusiastically encored. The comic singâ€" ing in costume by Messrs Barry, Uasey, Vasey, Dargabel ; the minstrels Messrs Mays, Barry, McKenna, Casey, Vasey. Lister and ‘C Casey, (all genuine coons), the dialogues * Frightened Lodger" * Census Collector " and * Saved," were all of a high class and creditably perâ€" formed. i nd J Sullivan, the accompanist for the evening was K M Ryan the teacher, and the instrument used was an elegant new parlor organ, kindly loaned for: the occasion _ by _ Domnoch _ Presbyterian Church. At the close of Part II Mr Staples in a very efficient manner auctioned off the pies, etc. His success is seen in the results: the cheapest pie was 65c and the hightest $1.50. The total receipts were $57.85, and when expense is off there remains $54.27 to an organ fund. Excellent orchestra music was fur nished by Messrs P Malone. J Coffey The duties of chairman were most pleasingiy and gracefully performed by 'meliclmm. A Ledingham, of Williamsâ€" ford. The teacher and friends of the school heartily thank all who aided in making this concert such a success. Corm. CHRISTMAS CONCERT AT DORNOCH SEPARATE SCHOOL. MARVEL OF MECHANISM.
