During the course of a year our people have opportunity of wit nessing a great'diversity of en tertainments, but nothing is ever presented to an Edgefield audi ence that is more thoroughly en joyed or more rapturously re ceived than the commeccement exercises ol the graded school. The children are so devoid of the' vainities and vainglories of life,so natural: and unassuming in their mauser that they provoke the highest admiration and commen dation' from tbe -large audiences that attend these annual occasions. The 1907 commencement exer cises of the graded pchool will held on Thursday evening, May 16*b, beginuiogat 8:45 sharp. The doors will positively close at th*t hour. The exercises will cons-ist chi-fly of a beautiful little play entitled "The Queen's Surprite." More thau a score of little folks have been assigued parts.

D F Dre i corn is a painter in Hol yoke, Mass. John J Donohue is an ar- ? shitect, Springfield, near-by. . Donohue was building, at Holyoke, trie Hely Family Institute, letting the work by bids, as usual. Dreicorn got the paint" job; the paint wai to be lead-and-oil. But Dreicorn said to himself: 1 lead- j and-oii isn't half so good as Deroe md it costs more money, what shall [do? He painted Devoe; and. after] the work was dene, told Donohue, saying: ''if that isn't better than any J lead-and-oil job, I'll make it so." Was Dreicorn right or wrong in painting a lead-and-oil job Devoe? You ask bo w it turned out. This was I ?ix years ago. Now Donohue has an other job there, a big addition to the Catholic Hospital; and he doesn't ask bids for the painting, but says to Dreicorn: ''Go ahead Dreicorn and ?rive me as good a job as you did on th? Institute. That's the best paint ?ob I ever saw." The question ls ''Wa3 Dreicorn right in painting Devoe when he had agreed to paint lead-and-oil. That isn't quite all. Lead-and-oil is expected to last three years. If Drei corn had, used lead-and-oil, there would have been another job for bim or somebody else three yenrs ago. Was he right in losing that job for himself or somebody else three years | igo? The Institute took 200 gallons De voe and cost 1,000; the paint had worn ?ix years, when Donohue says "it's the best paint job he ever saw." If he had used lead-and-oil, it would have sost about 2200 for the two paint jobs ?ix and three years ago aod go hungry for paint again. Dreicorn lost 1200 of business and took the risk of making Donohue mad and losing his business, forever: all to save the "holy family Institute 12001 besides the fuss of a paint job "Was Dreicorn right or wrong asa painter; and which would you paint your church, lead-and-oil or Devoe?
