It opened yesterday long enough for Mjss Martha Hopkins of Fort Fairfleld, Me., to ring an old fash- ioned hand bell and call the 14 children together but a scarlet it to suspend at the end of the | session. A realistic touch was added to the exercises when Mr. Ford brought a frisky lamb from hiy estate to gambol on the green, | made white by the snow of the previous day, just as Mary's little lamb of poetic fame did a century | ago. The school house is a coun- | terpart of the one at Sterling | which was immortalized in Jingles | reputed to have been written by | John Roulstone. The building itself contains parts once Mary E. Sawyer, original of the | poem, was wont to bring her lamb. Old fashioned seats and desks and | a cozy big stove of antique design | add to the effect. Only a Mary was missing. Of the | 14 children who responded to roll call not one responded to that | name. Mary Sawyer died in 1§93 at the age of 92 years. | The automobile manufacturer came here from Detroit especially for the occasion. He had personal- ly directed the removal here of the remains of the old school from Sterling, and the construction of the counterpart. ‘: The pupils who comprise the class are principally children of | employes at the Wayside inn; all | cxpenses of the school are being | paid by Mr. Ford.
