round. The grass is always green
and the flowers bloom all the time.
We have no rain except during the
winter season. The days arc warm
from about 2 o'clock until about ."
in the evening, then it is cool and
one can sleep nicely a great improvement
on Kentucky. I like old
Kentucky, but don't think I should
care to ever make it my home again.
1 have relatives there that I should
like to visit my father, Stanton
Pierce; my brothers, Judge Pierce,
Ahart Pierce and George Pierce.
I have also other friends there I
should like to sec, but I hardly
expect to sver visit Kentucky, for I
am getting old; but I often think of

of a deserving young man who
had been afflicted with typhoid fever
for more than 80 days, that it
would be proper to have no school
in tho evening in order that all

ing tho fund. Hcv. Dr. Johnson
said that was right and that he
thought the children should have
also a half holiday on Friday for the
big show, which met with hearty
npplausc from every one of the five
hundred children present.
Tho deep interest shown in the
school was the great number of the
patrons present and all in a cheerful
mood. Prof. King has the school
well organized and in good w'orking
order, with ofilcicD' teacher and
every teacher at his or her place.
