To the Editor of the Journal. The following is a notice of the last day of school of district No. 35, Union township, of which Walter "Breaks is teacher. The programme of the morning was to get the patrons together for the purpose of preparing a pole on which to hoist the flag. By this time the ladies had begun to swarm in from all sides with baskets jammed full of that which satisfiees the appetite. Soon after the noon hour was declared and a table was spread with everything good. C. Lewellen then took charge of the school and placed Mr. Breaks at one end of the table with Miss .Flora Harwood and Miss Dora Beck on each side of the worthy young teacher, and so on until all of the school were standing around the table. After dinner was over in presence of the teacher and his pupils and friends a pole 55 feet high was raised and then C. Lewellen began pulling, up a beautiful flag 5x10 feet. After the hoisting rope had been fastened three cheers were given for the flag of American independence. Walter Breaks is 19 years of age and this winter was his first school and was a grand success in every particular. He is worthy of place any where the trusteee may see fit to send him. Success to Walter. C. Lewellen gave an interesting talk to the school and teacher, painting a bright future for the teacher and also for the pupils that would apply themselves to their studies. Mrs. Breaks, her son and Mr. Jones were present. Noble Lewellen was the only pupil that went every day to school this winter. C. LEWELLEN.
