II is an interesting fact that Bailey's mu
sic rooms at Burlington increase their
trade each year in this locality, and sig
nificant fact that in order to do this IN
crease of business, they treat al people
souarely. They need no introduction 10
our people, as they have soid pianos anu
organs in this town for the last eighteen
years. They buy their goods for cash and
40 NOT discount their customers notes,
which is an important item. That IL IS
strictly a first class house no one need ques
ton. We know whereof we speak.

of interest to the community
Profuse decorations of flowers, and nu-
merous singing birds made the auditorium
of the Congregat ional church more Inan
usually attractive last Sunday, when Chill
dren's Day was observed with appropriate
ceremony, The exercise used, with slight
variations, was particularly for the Sunday
School. members of which, especially the
Primary department, took prominent
parts. Several OF the younger girls sang
twice, once without accompaniment, by
Mr.. Hardy's request, ana their voices
blended perfectly and made sweet music.
There was plenty of other music, by the
congregation, an anthem by the choir, and
HYMN BY older girls of the sunday
School The Rotations were, "The Story
/ hear" by Edith Marcott and Ethel New
ton; 1.-THE company belong to, by Leigh
ton Abbott; "Why love it." by Jessie /
Church; "Some of the Points | make"
by Fred Mcintosh and Ernest Abbott
"Why / continue to go" by Clarence
Hodges, and reading by Miss Cornie
Pierce, ''The Round Robin" all relating |
to the Sunday School and its work. Prayer |
and responsive readings linked the music
and formed an harmonious whole: Mr..
Hardy's tact and management made the
children feel at ease. and helped them all |
to perform their parts well. He made
brief remarks, giving few vivid statistics
in regard to church and Sunday School at
tendance, or rather non attendance, in
our own county, and was seconded by
Minnie Smith with description of the
Cong'l House in Boston, preliminary to
taking a collection for Sunday School
work. Pleyel's Hymn was then sung, fol-
lowed by the benediction. The program
was enjoyable and well carried out, and
much credit is due those who had its man
agement.
