Five weeks is the time that the Dis

local editor of the GRANGE ADVANCE,

We always delight to bestow merited
praise, and we think the singing at the
NJ. E. Church under the direction of
Prof. Raymond, has that merit which

pride and emulation and bringing them
up to that perfection which is worthy of
the important part they are called to
perform in the public worship.
