On the .evening I'f Washington's birthday, ,lhe I-Jighth Grade of the Uockville Centre Grammar School beld its mid-year graduating exercises at the Clinton Avenue School Audi¬ torium. The crowded condition ot the hall, the enthusiasm of the au¬ dience and the disappointment ot those unable to see the exercises ow¬ ing to the lack of standing room in the hall,—all testify to the success of the graduating exercises and the Interest felt by the community in the work of the school. The only regret of the evening, If we may speak of regrets in connection with such a hap¬ py occas|)n, was that the auditorium was too small to hold, not to mention seating, the number of friends and
orchestra's cripaljie hamliing of tlie piece.
When tho curtain rose (it rially parted in the middle and swept to eacii side—l)Ut we all understand) theie was a burst of appiaust- from fhe audienre. Behold,—the school [llatform had been translormed into a delightful old Dutch street before the snu,ggest of village Inns.

The New "Kantturn" Umbrella, 98c.
Intiroduced in Brooklyn by Abraham & Straus.
There have been Umb.'-ellas which when they turneid inside out were rendered unlit for further use— then there have been Uinbrelhis which wiiile they nii^ht turn inside out in a hi;;h wind could l)e turned back a^ain nnd be as jii^ood as ever—but it remained for this invention to go just a step farther—to make an Umbrella that could not blow inside out—made so with a double ri^Li^id frame that, while it adds init a few ounces to the weight, adds to the strength im¬ measurably.
The most tempestuous wind fails to blow this "Kantturn" inside out.
The covering is of good rainproof material, fast color; good assortment of Nat¬ ural and Mission wood handles.
We guarantee frame and covering for one year's wear and also that these Um¬ brellas cannot be turned insids out by the wind.
