The public school held their entertainment on Friday and Saturday evenings and cleared about $75. The money will go toward paying for the new piano.
The entertainment given by the pupils of the public school last week was the best ever given in this place. The Mulligan guards fan and good night drills were exceptionally fine. The school under Prof. Whitenack and his assistants is in a flourishing condition.
