 The entertainment given by the Sabbath School Association last Thursday evening was largely attended. The committee pre- sented very attractive and interesting pro- gramme, consisting of just variety enough to make the evening an enjoyable one. The singing by class of girls was remarkably good, giving evidence of the efficient drill they | had received under Miss Anna Yutzler. The "Widder Green" was well recited by Matte Long, while Master George Cochrane, noble little fellow, proved "Jamie to be gintleman" beyond doubt Lady Teasle and Sir Peter were admirably personated by Mrs T. R. San. ford and G. H. Oldfeld; both of them by their graceful bearing, appropriate gestures, seemed to be expressing their own feelings, not those of another. The popular song, "Little ones at home," given in quartette, was exceedingly well rendered by Mrs. R. P. Foster and Miss Anna Yutzler taking the air, assisted in chorus by Mrs. Jas. A. Cochrane, Geo. Hughes, and G. W. Hart, also another fine selection entitled "Grandma's old Arm Chair" was sung by Geo Hughes in a very spirited manner, the piece containing just fun enough to have it take well, and to be i'm. mensely appreciated It is necessary to state that the audience "hung breathless" while Prof. w. R. North gave some beautiful solos on that wonderful cornet, for which he was highly applauded. Other selections of instru- mental music were furnished by Frank Wood, Ethan Bosworth, and Charles M. Hall. The last and crowning feature of the evening was I tableau, ''The Goddess of Liberty" repre- sented by Miss Jennie Mallinson, who stood in lovely attitude elegantly adorned in the 4 national colors. At her right appeared Geo. I H. Oldheld, representing the navy, in one of the nobbiest sailor suits ever made up in Cornwall, and George really looked as if be had just ''sailed the ocean blue," while at the left stood with true military dignity the rep resentative of the army, Frank B. Wood, gorgeously dressed in his regimentals, lean ing on an antiquated musket of 17SO, with it's gleaming bayonet The beauty of the scene was enhanced by the brilliant red light gratuitously furnished for this special feature of the entertainment.
