Last Sun- day was anniversary day and a much- pleased and bright bevy of children were the seholars as they fore-gathered, packed like sardines, on the platform facing the equally packed audience that braved the sqnally weather to partici- pte in the prôceedings. Mfr. Luther T.Courtice, the energetic Superintend- ent, conducted the opening services and Welcomed the visitors in a few Well chosen words. Mr. James Saunders, a former superintendent, offered au earn- est prayer. The success of a public program mneeting oflen depends might ily on the chairman, and on this occas- ion the choie was a most happy one, that important function beiag capitally discharged hyý Dr. J. M. Brimacombe, One remarkzably pleasing feature of the proceedings, was the free and livcly singingtby theschool. Mr. Jas. Goarci, the popular local tenor singer, was.re- questeci 10 train them for the occasion and certainIy' his work was faithfully and most satisfIactorily done, many re- marking at the close how very nîcely the children sang. The pro gramn comn- mittee-Misses C. Babcock, Martha Jar- vis, Addie McDowell-gave reason for congratulation, the interest being well sustained fromi staîft te finish Miss Babcock very effieienýtly p)resided at the organ.

The 11111e folk sang their pretty uittle kindergarten songs and went thrQugh,ýl the e-xereises snlendidly,. The solo by little Eva TodghamÙ-"1'm a Pilgim i"-was one of the numibers that pI;;sed everybody., There wîll be a place in the bîg church choir for hier some day. Minnie Cole, another litIle girl with a clear, rinoinga voice, gave a recitation, and r'thlr Browu recited 'lWillie's Letter" with good imitation and lu a distinct, sweet voice.
