Excerpt from The Merry Times of Sixty Years AgoThe Merry Times of Sixty Years Ago is a Word Picture of the select-school Teacher's Exhibition held in the Church, at the close of his Term.The exercises consisted of short recitations by the boys, compositions read by the girls, dialogues, music, and a Benediction by the Pastor.The Apple-paring and the plays following it, also Shaking the Quilt and the Kitchen-dig are no longer thought of, or known.This word-picture was drawn nearly thirty years ago, which places the happy times of those young people in the far away past.It is well at times to take a look backward and compare the pleasures and disadvantages of those days with the pleasures and advantages of the present time.Doubtless the young people of that generation were as happy as the young people of to-day knowing no other life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
