I'ura- illuf the schulars flaunted miniature rejire- senlatiuns uf f >ld Glory to the breeze as ihey stepped jauntily along, every muvemenl designating huw jm.ud they felt at this ausjiiciuus moment.
The streets all along the line of march were crowded with sightseers, and the cortege was loudly cheered as they stejiped along, typical symbHs uf the veterans uf many a batt'e field.
Quite a number of the resitlents of Baldwin and visitors fi'uin all Uaiitions luuk s)iap-shots of the jirucessioii. but the prettiest sight nf all was witnessed as the little children turned into the road leading to the school house, and as they ajijieared marching up the hill, drawing the Hoat and its valuable con¬ tents, a volume oi sjiontaneous cheers burst from those assembled ;it this Jioint uf vantage.
IJj.on arriving al the toji oi the knull ujion which the school house is knated, the entire school was marched t«i a slight elevation overlooking the new school, where Ihey were massed under the j.rotecting shades of the lall trees that line that section of the grounds.
After order had been secured, the Board of Education and invited guests ascended the jilatform which had been erected between the new and jiresent school hou.se, when the principal. E. .M. Prestun, on behalf of the chiidren, jire¬ sented the corner slone lu the district, in   an   interesting   and able sj.eech.
The gift was formally accejited by Wesley B. Smith, President uf the Board of Education, in a few well chosen remarks, after which the stuiie was Jilaced in position by the workmen, during which time the band jdayed" .My Country, "Tis of Thee." and as the strains uf this well knuwn song filled tl.e air, the enlire audience, as if one, arose to their feet and stood unbared throughout the playing uf the  .same.
As so(.n ;is il was annnuiiced that the stune h;ul been jilaced in pn.<-ilinii, the childrei:, led by .Mr. Preston and the faculty, gave three rousing I'heers which were laken uji by those prysenl I and rejiealed.

was introduced.
Dr. Cooley sjioke al iiuile sonic length in his usual able man)ier.
He -tatefl that he rejiresented the Educational Departmenl of the .Stale at this time, and congratulated the resi¬ dents of Baldwin, as well as the scho<il children, uj.tin this occasion, which will cert.aiiily j.rove a red leiter day in the annals of Baldwin.
I "Boys and girls of lo-day are living in an age unheard of in former years, and they enjoy jirivileges and opjior- tunities that would not be credited I many years ago, but things come and basement   of j ihiiigs go, so do ojij.ortunities and con-
children of Baldwin. "
Dr. Cooley continued by .saying that in making uji the .successful features uf a pleasant life are tive forces: Home, SchiHil, Church, Civil Iiistituliuns and Social life, but il is here shown that .Sehuol is une of the leading forces, and that too many schools could not be es¬ tablished throughout the country. The corner stone placed to-day is rightly named, as it will jirove a fortress im- jiregnable against "Idleness, ignorance and .superstitit.ii." Dr. Cotiley dwelt at length uj.on the jirogress made b\ the schools during the past decade, and he sliiled that the time is <iuickly coming when te;ichers must be jiaid better salaries .so that the very best leachers may be secured for the educa¬ tion of the children, ujioivwhom, when arriving ujion manhood and woman- hu( (i, the jirusjierily and success of our lielovetl country depends. He said that the bugaboo of taxation is greatly feared, but he believed thtit no one can Jiay too much taxation for schools, and school houses. Taxation raised for road jiurjio.ses or for maintaining insti¬ tutions or communities, go, nobody knows v.here, but the ta.xes jiiiid for scho,.I and educatioiiiil jmrjioses are tangible and visible and vve enjoy the results in viewing the suciess attained by those of the children who iijijily themselves jiroperly to the iulvanlages atforedd thern during their school days. Then foil lowed the air "America. Dear Naiive Land" by the children, after which .Mr. John W. Davis. Dis¬ trict .Sujierintendent of the Dejiartment of Education of the City of New Vork, delivered a short but j.ointed ad¬ dress. .Mr. Davis dwell jirincijially ujion character and its itccomjilish- mi'iits, also ils resources through life, and bade the children to establish such a charticler as lo merit the esteem of all wh<i knew lhem. He slated that one of the characteristics that distin¬ guished this couniry above all others is its Jiresent free school system, the jiride of the nation, tind one thiit for¬ eign jiowers are desirious of copying. In sjieiiking lo the children he staled that there are three ejiics they should strive for, ".Self-knowledge, self-re¬ verence and self-control." These alone are ones to be deeplv cherished.
Then followed the anthem. "First Violets," by the children, after which Mr. E. E. Acker read a list of the iirticles lh;it had been jilaced in a strong and heavy cojijier box and in¬ serted in the corner stone, which were as follows: A jihotogriiph of the White House, the gift of Prt'sident Roosevelt, also a leiter exjiressing his well-wishes for the children of Baldwin.
