EXAMINATION A^D CErvTll-’i- C.ATES.- The examinations will be held, the first Thursday .™d Friday in April. It is the plan ti:is year to hold all ithe examinsitions at the same tirce. If there be schools that can’t use the diiys here named we will make a few exceptions to suit them. All teachers who have students to take tlie e;am- i nation will notify the superintendent of the number in time to have the questions sent in time. The examin ations on .\rithmetic, Geography, U. S. History and N. C. Hi.story will be on Thursday; and on Grammar, Sa;^ itation. Agriculture a(nd Civil Govern ment on Friday. All the papers are to be sent to the Superintendent’s of fice and graded by one board. An average of 75 per cent, on all the sub jects, provided no one mark is below fiO, is the minimum for graduation. All graduates will receive a beauti ful certificate of graduation on Com mencement Day. This certificate e!i- titles the graduate to go to one of the State High School? free of tuition. The certificates of graduation will be preset^d from the rostrum. The students who have been neither absent nor tardy for the entire school session will receive each a certificate '-.f honor on Commencement Day from ’he Superititendent'.-i oifics. and rot from the rostrum. • ’r the people arrange to start home after {not be any business transacted in thi j the floats have been filled with chi!-! country at ali. dren to start home, at the Court [ —^^— House Square, a parade will be made, j A girl ^vho has three pairs of ex- The Court House bell will be rung as j pensive silk stockings doesnot care a a .'ii'jnnf foi-.the parade.

Dii'iier will not be served from one united table, the crowd inay be too lar"c to nu*ke this plan convor.i- ent. But it is sujr|;c:~i.cd th«*\t each school arranjfC! a picnic dirmar togeiu- or. This can easily be made a sue- and a pleasant feature. Have a starting place from home —the school house or some more con- venieTit cetitet or cross reads. Have a time to start. All be there with wa^ns and baskets, put up your col ors and all come together. No bitching will be allowed on the scSiool grounds, except on the south side, but vacant lotK and grovc.s can be ^'ccured elsewhere in town. Selt^et are of these places and then it wij be easy for aU lo retire to that place for your school picnic dinner. The Street Car Company very kiud- ly divide.*? proceeded of the day with thc' cntsrpribe. Any schools rominjf from Burlington or. Haw River by the car line w!! contribute bath to tha Cosnpany and to the Commencement, and may easily arrange to serve their dinner on the school grounds aft«r picnic fashion. Wo hope a nunsher wilS ride thee nrn. CONTE.ST iN BECITATION A.VO I.1ECLAMATI0N. .A.11 graduates who care to do so may contest in recitation or declama- tioii If they send their names to the Superintendent on or before April 15. if the number sent is too many for three contests, then a preliminary con test will be held on the evening of the 2ith, to rsducc the number. T!ie prizes ofi’ered will be Histories of American tnd English Literature. It is hoped that we will have contestants enough for three contests at the same time—one in the Opera House, one in the Court House and one in the School Auditorium. THE FIELD DAY PROGRAMMB.

The following prizes are to lie awarded on Commencement Day: Ten prizes will be given to those schools that give the most to im prove their own equipment,, to in- creAse supplies and to len^hen the term. These prizes range ip value from R good clock up to $S0 in casn. A gold pin a.".d a silver pin will be given respectively to those two grad uates making the best and second best marks on English Grammar. A stove will be given the cooking class making the l>est exhibit. A sewing machine will be given the sewing class making the best exhib it. The graduates will be divided into groups for speaking, in recitation a.id declamation, and eaph group will be given a Hi.storj- of American Liter ature and a copy ei the Histoi.v of English Literature, as ore prize for the best speech. Ttj'o prizes cf $1-5 and $10 will be given for the best and sscond be; floats brought to the Commencement by schools. A FEW FINAL V.'CRDS. Sever.ll songs will bo sung during the day. We would call your atten tion and ask you to prepare “A!l Hail tbs Power of Jesus’ Name,” "Alamance/’ “Ho for Carolina,” “The Old North State,” “Dixie,” and “An’erica.” If the weather viili permit, wc will ask that the girls all wear white f«;r the sa':e-4>f uniformity. The parade will be made by all on foot, except the Chief Marshal. We trust several - graduates will tako part in the speaking contests. The prizes arc treasures of literary knowledge, and there never was a time when public speaking vas with out value. We ask that ail pictures and school products be brought to the office lie- fore Commencement Day that they may be arranged in time for the l-x- hibition. A Correction. After the most careful investigit- tion the Remonstrator finding that the article on “Why Wayland Killed Him- •leif," w«s quite emtfieovs desires lo hereby inform its readers. This it does in juetice to the dc*ceased and bis family, for this paper is abo'rc will ingly injuring even an enemy unjust ly- The article was made up from sim ilar dispatches appearing at the time in the Live Issue and other New York papers and in.formaticn supplied by dispatches some of which were from Kan.sas, and the writer hereof never doubted their truth. We find that these reports were Actions, and made evidently in malice. Inquiry among several of Mr. Weyiand'a neighbors reveals that they never heard of the crime charged against him in those dispatcheL I consider that in that matter he was assaiiled unjustly and his family wronged, and ..therefore make this correetiOB.
