AN EVENING WITH FOUR HUNDRED
HAPPY CHILDREN.-There was a nice
festival for the Sunday School children OF
the Methodist church Friday evening, just
about as enjoyable, to both the children and
SPECTATORS as it could be. The body OF the
church was first occupied by the children,
sitting in classes headed by their teachers,
and it was pretty sight-four hundred OF
them, and an infant class with some little
Aoddlers in it not longer than your arm,
all neatly dressed and in glow OF expecta-
tion. This infant class then sung s'Llt-
tile Jewels, - and then MI. Jno. B. Evans,
the Assistant Superintendent of the school,
made a clever talk to the little ones,
weighted with some very serious and
earnest remarks for the parents present.
Then the air was filled with the song OF
the Beautiful River by the fresh voices
of the children, and they commenced filing
out, class at a time, going down to the
lecture room, which was used as refecto-
nv. II was touching sight, as well as
JOYOUS one, for one couldn't help remem-
bering that some of the bright little ones
that sang at the last festival have since
crossed over the river of which their COM
rades were singing tonight, and then-a
far sadder thought-one remembered the
rough road that these little feet have to
travel yet, so rough, you know, that many
of their little hearts will long for the river
long before they are ready to cross.
1t will always puzzle us to know how it
was done, but it was done, and those four
hundred children were als marched quietly
and in perfect order down into the lecture
room, not even boy treading on the skirt
of his teachers dress, a thing which boy
usually deems it his privilege and his duty
to do. when they got down, there were
long rows of tables before them, and how
do you think it was fixed? We'll, there
were 400 separate piles, one for each schol-
az, each pile made up OF all sorts OF can
dies, cakes, apples, nuts, &C., enough for
a grown man, and each child took its seat
i'm front of one of these little monuments
land after blessing was asked, went to work
sThoss children not there had their pile
saved for chem. They told us that was
their way, and we were very particular In
enduring, for we don't remember ever
having seen as perfect order among as ma
nv children before. The opening prayer
of the evening was delivered by Mr. VIM.
Bryant, and the blessing in the fefectory
}by M. N. B. Hendry.
