The matter of "The Irish Character," 'He entertainingly discussed by Mies Mar- aret Veronica Burns. The Irish people, he aaid, are frank and warm-hearted. 'hey love mankind, and none are more tOBpitable. They are lovera of music and lave unbounded admiration for heroes. ?Uoy are also imaginative and witty. Burns' pertinent citations added to he charm of the composition. Miss Caroline Louise Pierce chose for ter subject, "Classic Prose for Children." Ihe plead for the studying of the classics by children, thereby giving them a fund of valuable historical information, a love for the beautiful, and a knowledge of jure Eaglish. She thought Hawthorne ;he best for this purpose. In her essay on "Tennyson's Songs," Miss Florence Eliza Barbour in a most pleasing manner gave her audience a good illustration of the music in eong. Tennyson's, ahe said, was the clearest, sweetest and strongest voice of the cen- fcury. She quoted from his words to more clearly show her meaning. 'The Influence of Surroundings," was ;he theme of Miss Abbie Cecile Miner's essay, and it was handled in a very hap- py manner. Choice language was made to do dutytothe practical end in view, viz: the influencing of children by har- monious and pleasing surroundings, es- pecially in the school room, The closing essay was by Miss Jessie Davenport, who spoke on thfe"JE5allads of War." Miss Davenport said that wars In 18BB4, the registration was 176 with 15 graduates. ^ This year the registration has increasedto226, and the graduating class to 31. These figures, Indicating a steady growth and a growing popularity, are most gratifying to all the friends oi tbe school. But the figures quoted not the only evidences of prosperity. There is a corresponding advance along educational lines, is the direction of a fuller and more complete equipment of the pupils for the work of their chosen profession, So pronounced is this im- provement that it has already become understood that graduation from the Platteburgh Normal is synonymous with the possession of all the requisites for suc- cessful teaching—in short, that gradua- tion means something more than a for- mal passing through the curriculum. Much, if not all, of the advance in the two directions mentioned, the numerical growth and educational excellence, isdu< to Principal Jones and the hard-working and efficient members of the faculty, many of whom are pre eminent in their respective lines. Dr. Jones has been fortunate in his assistants, and the school has been fortunate in its Principal. Dm ing his three years' service in that capa- city, Dr. Jones has been indefatigable in behalf of the school, bringingtohis & winning personality and tireless en- ergy, a wide acquaintance in educa- tional circles and with educational mat- ters, an adequate conception of what th school should be, and finally a capacity for much work, He combines the ele- ments of the progressive and enlightene< . educator and the executive ability of th< business man—a combination which i rare, and which has proven invaluable tx the Platteburgh Normal. The indications point to a continuance next year of the gratifying prosperity which has thus far attended the cll'orte of the present management. The Normal commencement, held the theatre Tuesday, waa most enjoy able. The attendance was large, and al who attended were favorably impressed with the exorcises. More elaborate prc grams there have been, but none of moi uniform excellence. The orations an essays were evidently constructed on th theory that "brevity is the soul of wit, especially with references to closing ej ercisea. But the productions, by reason of brevity, lost nothing but words. The ideas were there, clearly, succinctly ar; beautifully expressed. Even tho cap •tioua critic, intent upon diacriminatioi •would bo emb:irraBHod in his work. Tli fair critic would limi in tho manner ;in umtUirof each ^pcultor HISOII^ point', f< cunum'ndiitioii.

Wars have ever furnished inspiration for the pen of the poet. Several famous war songs were •ecalled, among these of our country wing "Sheridan's Ride" and the "Battle Cry of Freedom." After an excellent selection by the orchestra, Dr. Jones presented the diplo- In doing so, he said he had hoped the President of the Local Board would be present to address the graduates, but imperative public business had made this impossible. Continuing, he congratulated the graduates upon the completion of their term at the Normal, and commended them for the zeal and industry they had displayed, at the same time admonishing them that it is no time now to relax their efforts. The education they had received was with reference to their chosen pro- fession. Work had been conducted on three main lines, he said: 1. Scholarship thorough, accurate and broad. You cannot teach what you do not yourselves know. 2. Some knowledge of the best meth- ods. 3. The principles which underlie the art of teaching. Another element in successful teach- ing, said Dr. Jones, which is not acquir- ed by study, is the spirit of a teacher, which he hoped they had acquired. They were pledged to teach in the public schools, and he was satisfied they would do so. He urged them to teach in such a manner as would reflect credit upon themselves and honor upon their profes- lion. The. program being concluded, the graduates ceived the warm congratula- of their friends. .. 8CIIOOI, 1,1/JINI, Iteiinion and O r a 5 E H ELLS BROTHERS I E a CO co H < (.(t.-i i:i«-(tloa <>» Officers-Wemoriul Io HI.

Burns' pertinent citations added tohe charm of the composition.

Miss Caroline Louise Pierce chose forter subject, "Classic Prose for Children."Ihe plead for the studying of the classicsby children, thereby giving them a fundof valuable historical information, a lovefor the beautiful, and a knowledge ofjure Eaglish. She thought Hawthorne;he best for this purpose.

In her essay on "Tennyson's Songs,"Miss Florence Eliza Barbour in a mostpleasing manner gave her audience agood illustration of the music in eong.Tennyson's, ahe said, was the clearest,sweetest and strongest voice of the cen-fcury. She quoted from his words tomore clearly show her meaning.

'The Influence of Surroundings," was;he theme of Miss Abbie Cecile Miner'sessay, and it was handled in a very hap-py manner. Choice language was madeto do duty to the practical end in view,viz: the influencing of children by har-monious and pleasing surroundings, es-pecially in the school room,

The closing essay was by Miss JessieDavenport, who spoke on thf e"JE5alladsof War." Miss Davenport said that wars

In 18BB4, the registration was 176 with 15graduates. ^ This year the registrationhas increased to 226, and the graduatingclass to 31. These figures, Indicating asteady growth and a growing popularity,are most gratifying to all the friends oitbe school. But the figures quotednot the only evidences of prosperity.There is a corresponding advance alongeducational lines, is the direction of afuller and more complete equipment ofthe pupils for the work of their chosenprofession, So pronounced is this im-provement that it has already becomeunderstood that graduation from thePlatteburgh Normal is synonymous withthe possession of all the requisites for suc-cessful teaching—in short, that gradua-tion means something more than a for-mal passing through the curriculum.

Much, if not all, of the advance in thetwo directions mentioned, the numericalgrowth and educational excellence, isdu<to Principal Jones and the hard-workingand efficient members of the faculty,many of whom are pre eminent in theirrespective lines. Dr. Jones has beenfortunate in his assistants, and the schoolhas been fortunate in its Principal. Dming his three years' service in that capa-city, Dr. Jones has been indefatigable inbehalf of the school, bringing to his& winning personality and tireless en-ergy, a wide acquaintance in educa-tional circles and with educational mat-ters, an adequate conception of what thschool should be, and finally a capacityfor much work, He combines the ele-ments of the progressive and enlightene<

. educator and the executive ability of th<business man—a combination which irare, and which has proven invaluable txthe Platteburgh Normal.

The indications point to a continuancenext year of the gratifying prosperitywhich has thus far attended the cll'orteof the present management.

The Normal commencement, heldthe theatre Tuesday, waa most enjoyable. The attendance was large, and alwho attended were favorably impressedwith the exorcises. More elaborate prcgrams there have been, but none of moiuniform excellence. The orations anessays were evidently constructed on ththeory that "brevity is the soul of wit,especially with references to closing ejercisea. But the productions, by reasonof brevity, lost nothing but words. Theideas were there, clearly, succinctly ar;beautifully expressed. Even tho cap•tioua critic, intent upon diacriminatioi•would bo emb:irraBHod in his work. Tlifair critic would limi in tho manner ;inumtUirof each ^pcultor HISOII^ point', f<cunum'ndiitioii.

After an excellent selection by theorchestra, Dr. Jones presented the diplo-

In doing so, he said he had hopedthe President of the Local Board wouldbe present to address the graduates, butimperative public business had made thisimpossible. Continuing, he congratulatedthe graduates upon the completion oftheir term at the Normal, and commendedthem for the zeal and industry they haddisplayed, at the same time admonishingthem that it is no time now to relax theirefforts. The education they had receivedwas with reference to their chosen pro-fession. Work had been conducted onthree main lines, he said:

1. Scholarship — thorough, accurateand broad. You cannot teach what youdo not yourselves know.

2. Some knowledge of the best meth-ods.

3. The principles which underlie theart of teaching.

Another element in successful teach-ing, said Dr. Jones, which is not acquir-ed by study, is the spirit of a teacher,which he hoped they had acquired. Theywere pledged to teach in the publicschools, and he was satisfied they woulddo so. He urged them to teach in sucha manner as would reflect credit uponthemselves and honor upon their profes-lion.

The. program being concluded, thegraduates r» ceived the warm congratula-

of their friends.
