The B.C. fri¢hds held an' interesting, en- joyable and profitable time "in their church, Prince Albert, on Christmas eve, over the Chrisimas Tree services especially intended as a treat for their Sunday School children. The church was finely decorated and the two beautiful Christmas trees loaded down with just such fruit as the children desired, added much to its appearance.

It would appear that no other discription of trees grow so rapidly or yield so mich fruit at this season of the year as Christmas Tress, they are found bringing forth their fruit every where. On Monday evening last the Sunday School children in connection with the C. M. Church here, reaped an abun- dant harvest off their Christmas Trees in the town hall. The exercises wergrof-the greatest interest the gleeful children the merry reapers of the harvest were ofttipe toe over their several portions of the pleasent fruit, The exercises were all of a pleasant nature Lut the feeding of the lambs though it were only natural food was by no means the the least attractive part of the proceedings. ---- The Christmas Tree in the M.

Mr. Miller sang with much spirit that fine song; " Culling Hard against the Stream," The vice chairman now gave "The Mer 2nd Manufacturing Taterests." Mr. J. H.

He paid the company a high but judicious and well merited compliment, but the antiquated and utterly inadequate weapons given them to fight fire came in for a scathing. He eulogized the Firemen on their efficiency and was frequently aston- ished at what they accomplished with such an inefficient engine. He said,a band of such men as he saw before him were worthy of better appliances with which to fight fire.

Friday last being closing day, for tte year, of the Prince Albert School, the Teach ers wisely determined to wind vp with public examination. So soon as we heard of jt--though somewhat late in the day--we embraced the opportunity of witnessing what we regard as one of the most important ex- hibitions it is possible to witness, the grand but thorongh development of the youth- full mind. The number of children present while not i to call large was perhaps a very fair turn out of the available pupils, and notwith~ standing they were all very young they ap-| peared to much advantage, intelligent and | active, and displayed by there good order and the accuracy with which they performed their several exercises that they were under skillful and successful teachers and that they as pupils had profited by these advantag There were but few visitors, one minister, one Trustee and perhaps eight or ten others. Such a turn out is simply disgracfuldiscourte- ous to the teachers and unfair to the pupils. The past history of Price Albert would not bear us out in taking this miserable turn out as a criterion by which to judge of the value they set upon education ; but it must be taken as an indication of an indiffe the best interests of our schools. ever light we please to regard it whether morally, sociullyy financially or iptellectual- ly it must be conceded that there is no other interest in the land which so imparatively demands the best attention of the best minds as that of the education ot the young, and that education will in quautity and quality, be in the direct ratio of the public sympathy it receives. 'We were much pleased with the examina- tion so far as we had an opportunity of judg- ing; itappeared very satisfactory indeed, especially when the ages of the, pupils are considered, The two young ladies Miss Bates and Miss Bullen, who taught the school during the present year deserve the thanks and gratinde net alone of the puplis but of the parents and the section at large. We understand that both the young ladies havo resigned their positions ; we are not now in a position to state why, but we only give expression to the general sentiment of the section when we wish them continued success and' much comfort in whatever change they may adopt or position they may occupy. At the close of the exercises Mr. Spence on behalf of the Trustees, spoke approvingly of the school and of the manner in which the children had acquitted themselves, Rev. Mr, Hill, Mr. A.
