The friends of the Liberty Grove Sab
bath School were notified to meet at the
school house, to elect officers for the ensu-
ing year. On Sunday last they met for
that purpose, at the designated place. Rev.
VIM. Shroff was chosen Chairman and &.
G. Caldwell appointed Secretary. MIR.
Shroff briefly stated the object that had
called the meeting together, and expressed
the gratitude that should throb in each
heart that their lives had been thus spared,
and hope that the interest of the school
might be deeply felt by all. And hoped
that each officer and member Of the school
would go to work in spiri. of renewed
faithfulness. There was much to prompt
them to full performance of duty-a well
filled library and other auxiliaries. On
motion of some good brother the officers
were elected by ballot. Mr.. Shroff was
unanimously chosen Superintendent, but
declined to serve unless supported by two
assistants, one male and one female. This
proposition met with the approval of all,
except one little Professionalism, who had
studied the writings of that crusty old
bachelor, Paul, and she Immediately arose
and quoted " Let the women keep silence
in the churches" If she had quoted the
passage which commands them to ask for
information on all subjects of their hus-
bands at home, she would have placed
some of the members of the Sunday School
in sad dilemma, as they have no husbands
and no prospects of getting any until leap
year. And should the devoted admirer Of
st. Paul fail in securing prize in the mat
rimonial market sad would be her plight.
Luckily, St. Paul when he forbade women
speaking in the church, neglected to say
anything about the school house. Mr.. S.
+. Woodrow and Miss NJ. B. Gillespie were
elected Assistant Superintendent. Miss
G. is we'll qualified and deeply interested
in the work, and we doubt not success will
crown her efforts. Mr.. G. McCardell was
elected Librarian and Chorister; Miss c.
Russell, Secretary; f. Russell, Treasurer;
John Knight, r. F. Rowland, Thomas
Caldwell, Mrs. Frank, Miss Annie Grimes,
Mrs. Caldwell, Managers.
