in keeping the avenue clear for the en-
trance of the Sunday school invaders.
The parade had been formed into two
columns, and entered the park with the
Second Presbyterian School on the right,
marshalled by Samuel Il. McCreery, with
Charles A. Dellere as aid, and the Grace
Church School, marshalled by Jeffrey r.
Haskins, with r. l.. Flemming as aid, on
the left.
Following came the Park Reformed
School, Aug. Creveling, as aid, on the
right, and Centenary School, w. II. Cole,
as aid, on the left. Behind the Park Re
formed marched the North Baptist, Sam
uel A. Cochrane, aid, with its own drum
corps, and st. Paul's School, William A.
Atkinson, aid, followed the Centenary.
Then came in file the Zion A. M. F..
School, George McLain, aid; Old Foundry
Mission School, A. Hampton, aid; and
the Old Foundry Mission School, +. H.
Ramsey, aid.
The two columns marched abreast
through the entrance to the circular
walk Here the band, marching few
PAGES ahead, halted and discoursed
music, while the columns separated, one to
to the right, the other to the left, and
marched around the outer edge of the cir
cular walk, and meeting at the north end
of the park again marched abreast to the
fountain in the centre Here the columns
again separated and paraded the diagonal
walks on the north side to the circular
walk, then along the inner edge of the
circular walk to the south diagonal
walks, where they again met, preparatory
to retracing their march along Jersey
avenue
By this time the paths and avenues of
the park were completely blocked with a
solid mass of the gaily dressed paraders,
who gave to the park the appearance of
an immense flower bed
The parade was reviewed from the bal
cony of Mr.. +. Y. d. Skillman, No. 632
Jersey avenue, on the return from the
park, and the various schools marched
separately to their churches, where all
were treated to cake and ice cream.

Last Sunday was the fortieth after st.
Swithin's day, which falls ON July Is.
The old tradition that if it rains on st.
Swithin's day it will rain for the next
forty days, has this year been mor
than half fulfilled, since twenty-five of
the forty days has been rainy. On Ju-
ly Is, 1880, there was a thunder storm,
and fifteen days of the next forty were
water soaked. July Is, 1882, was an
other rainy day, and thirteen of the
of the next forty days followed its ex-
ample. All the other st. Swithin's
days have been fair. The old song
reads:
st. Swithin's day, II thou dost rain,
For forty days 1t will remain:
st. Swithin's day, II thou be fair,
For forty days twill rain II MAR.

A CANNING FACTORY BURNED.

Henry and Clement Bassett's can
ming factory in Huntington township,
was destroyed by fire on Sunday morn
ing last. The fire was discovered about
four O'Clock by Mr.. BasSett's son, and
calling his father. they ran to the cam
ingfactOry. When they arrived ut the
factory they found it had gained too
much Roadway to be checked. The
building was soon destroyed with all its
contents, including l39, 100 empty cans.
The young man who first discovered
the fire is positive that he saw some one
run from the building shortly after he
saw the light. There has been no fire
in the building since last fall. The
Messrs. Bassett expected to fire up
Monday and commence packing Tues
day. The owners of the burned cam
cry have arranged with Starr and Bro,
of Salem, to take and fill their to-
matoes and fill their orders. The fac
will he built in time for next seasons
pack.
The loss is estimated at $1,000. upon
which there was an insurance of 5000,
$1,000 in the Farmers Mutual, of Sa.
lem, covering stock and fixtures, and
$1,000 in the Fire Association of Phila-
delphia. placed by 1. o. Acton, of Sa-

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep
it holy. Six days shalt thou labor,
and do all thy work, but the seventh
day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God;
in it thou shalt not do any work"
These are divine commandments to all
men, but of late many do not think it
applies to them, or else they hold it
lightly in their minds. The greed for
money has led persons, or ~princapilly
corporators, which claim no souls, to
make Sunday travel larger than on
other days by advertising ex-
IRA inducements to those employed on
other days. With the starting of a
Sunday boat between Wilmington and
PENIS Grove last summer began the
advent of Sunday excurslonists to our
town. While they may call it a day
of recreation it really is not, and they
would receive much more rest by re-
manning at home. The past few Sun
days were but a beginning of what may
be expected in the future, unless our
leading Christian citizens at once put
a step to Sabbath discretion and STE
that tobacco stores, restaurants, and
places of amusements are stopped. A
pretty sight it is for an officer of the
law with a badge on, II who is expec-
ted to uphold the law, to engage in Sun
day traffic. How great are the per-
sonal sacrifices our citizens have made
in past years to build churches and EN-
plOy ministers, in order to
lead the people of our community TO a
better life and teach them to remember
the Sabbath day to keep it holy! The
churches are the loadstones of the conf
