A Most Gratifying Exhibit by the

afternoon at the Home at l0l Ala

bowed that they had been carefully
nstructed. They recite the Scriptures
with wonderful accuracy aud fscility
and their singing is inspiring. Their
teachers are to be congratulated and
commended for their faitbfulness.
The pro lramme opened with a solo
by that sweet singer, Miss Anna John
son. She Gang with such tenderness
and sweetness and pathos that many
in the large audience were moved 10
teas. The anniversary hymn was
sung by group of the lsree' children
aud it wss a pleasing sight 20 see so
many bright and happy looking faces
and near Them 80 beautifully sing the
songs OF salvation. Surely the man
