The kindergarten In this city is no longer
an experiment. The people have tried 1t, and
the result is satisfactory whore the children
have attended O true kindergarten and not
one in namo only. Tho question whether the
children OF the rich only shall enjoy these
privileges, or II the children OF mothers In the
Departments, or IL the mechanics and trades
people may also receive kindergarten training
is the question of the day. Thanks to the un-
firing zeal and devotion OF n few earnest dis
ciples OF Froebel's Philosophy some nifty lit
tie children attend at one or two free kinder
gartens, the financial burden being carried by
individuals charitably disposed. This burden
should BIO lifted by having at least a school
house given for carrying on this important
educational work, which those well.acqualnted
with this system OF education claim Will save
money In the end, as 1t prevents much shift
lessness, laziness and general depravity and
lays the foundation for Industrious, lawful
citizenship. An entertainment will DO given
next Saturday, at s O'Clock, in the lecture
room OF All Souls Church, for the purpose of
making beginning toward a building fund.
The exercises promise to be Interesting and
novel, and nearly all the HYDROCARBONS In the

The Cburcn OF sne vo,her,aud

At a meeting held several weeks ago of the
teachers Of the Sunday-schools aud others In
terested in the welfare of the Church OF the
Fatherland, located ut the corner OF Sixth and
2 streets, It was determined to hold @ fair to
raise funds toward cancelling, In part, the
debt which remains on the church. Since that
time willing hearts and busy hands have been
hard at work perfecting arrangements for the
occasion, and last night and to-day were en-
gagged in identifying and arranging the In
terior OF the church, where 1t Is to be held.
The entire interior Of the church Is decorated
with flags, set OFF with taste and neatness. A
number OF articles have been contributed by
friends, and the fair opens tonight under
suspicious circumstances. 1t is hoped that q
good sum Will be realized, as the object is a
worthy one, and deserves success.
