NORTH LAKE SCHOOL,

--—

The eemixanaual examination of this Schooi took place Dec. 31st,

Quite a number of rate-payers and visi~ tors were present to witness the progress of the school underthe efficient manage- ment of the teacher, Miss Nellie McNeill.

The examination was conducted by Rev. Father McIntyre, assisted by Mr. Stewart Andersen, Mr.Angus Mc Donald of St. Dun~ es an’s College, and Mr. Everett Fraser, of P. W. College, who are at bome spending their holidays with their friends.

The subjects, in which the pupils were examined included, besides the three R’s which in old time school were thought euflicient, History, Geography, Geometry, Latin, ete.

In every subject the pupils showed, by their readyanswers, that they had been well taught. The compositions written by the pu ils were especial)y good.

Several! recitations were well delivered by the pupile at the close of the examin ation.

The examinere and ratepayers present com plimented Miss McNeill on the success of the school and the neat appearance of the schoolroom, while the pupils expressed their esteem for the teacher in a more substantial manner.

This was one of the best examinations ever held in North Lake school, and teacher and pupils are to be congratulated on the exce}lent showing which it made.— Com.

ORIGIN OF THE KEW GARDENS.

Couriers could be despatched to the ends of the land for her floral boquet, but meanwhile sbe had to wait. un'ess some obscure owner of acho ce plant came forth to sacrifice her possesaion to the gratifica- tion of ber ruler. Queen Elizabeth received many sach voluntary eontributions of flowers from her subjects, but the uncer- tainty of the time, manner, and quality of the flowers was irritating to a queen of the English. In the wioter the wildtlowers of the fields and gardeus withered, and the flower-loving gueeen felt the loss more keeenly than those less favored with the fortunes of life. With the wealth of an imperial pation at her back, she could not command tbe choice of flowers that a day- Jaborer can obtain to day.

Out of this royal necessity grew the most fameus garden of tue world. With herown banda Queen Elizabeth laid out the grounds that were to produce and fructify the flowers for her drawing-room. She started to raise flowers for her own personal gratification, and ended by pro- ducing flowers aud plan's for the millions. No single devire ofan impetnous queen ever yielded better fruit. On Queen Elizabeth’s little flower garden the nation

original purpose of supplying the royal table with cut flowers is still observed, but that is a small incidental feature of the Kew. The garden belongs to the nation, and it is the nation, the ignorant and unsettered as well as the wise and studious, that enjoys its fragrant flowers, its graceful trees and palms, and its bal- samic herbs and plants. —George E. Waleh, in lanuary Lippincott’s. = Conghs, colds, pneumonia and fevers may be prevented by keeping the blood pure aad the system toned up with Hood’s Ssreaparilia.
