SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT. — Quite a
merry time was spent at the Friday af-
ternoon entertainment of last week in
the school in Section No. 8, Master
Robert McTaggart in the chair, when
some very interesting and well selected
readings were given by Catherine Mc,
Taggart, Jessie McNair, Eliza McIntosh,
Annie McNeil, James McTaggart and
Ed. Fulton. There were also a number
of good recitations, interspersed with
vocal and instrumental music, the latter
being some very pretty and lively
month -organ selections by Addie Bower-
man and Weil McNair. A change like
this from the ordinary duties of the
Behoal room is much appreciated and
enjoyed. by pupils who have been closely
applying themselves to hard study
during the -week.

Horse Markets.
MON'TREAL.—February 18th, Sales for week
have not beeaelarge ; a fair number of horses
sold at the commencement ofethe week, but for
want of buyers, trade was very dull during the
latter part. Prices are no higher and prospects
for the coming week are not very. encouraging,
there being but few buyers expected.
TORONTO, February 19th.—Although the fact
that some large sales were to take place this
week would have been supposed to have put life
in the market, it has not done so. It is true,.
indeed, that the few who were in want of horses
held off until this week in the hope of making
cheap purchases, but even the low prices that
were ruling were the high for them, and, as a
consequence, a good many would not bid at all.
The sale so far has been a, poor one. The class
of horses offered—geneial purpose and heavy
draught—were an exceptionally fine lot, but
they were sold at' prices that could almost be
called a sacrifice., The market appears to be al-
most entirely in favor of buyers, and they are
making the most of their opportunity. Some
Manitoba buyers were on the market to -day,
but they would not bid even up to the prices
that were going, and so about all the sales were
made on local account. The sales will be held
all weak. At Grand's to -day 105 horses were
offered of which fifty-three were sold. The
average sales are as follows: Pr greys, 7 yrs.
15.2 lids, 3265; pr g mrs, 7 and 8 yrs, 16.2 hds,
3195; ch g, 7 yrs. 16 hds, -8130-.; pr g gs, 6 yrs,
