Busy Bee Entertainment.

The Busy Bees. ajuvenile mission band
connected with the Second Parish church,
will give an original story written for
them, in the vestry of the church this
evening at 7.30 clock. The story opens
with three wide awake school girls who
discuss with considerable curiosity an
entertainment which they have seen adj
vertised in the morning papers, to be
givenFby Busy Bees. Tieyhase ''heard
of trained birds and trained animals but
never of trained bees.' They decide that
the only way to see what it is like, will
be to 60, which they plan to do,
The second part opens with meeting
of the Busy Bees, to which our girls have
been attracted by the sound of the sing
ing. Among the important things they
here learn are, that missions may be
made bright and attractive to young
people, which fact seems to be revela-
ton to them, for they had always sup
posed them to be 'sonly for older people
and were dreadfully dull and tiresome."
They learn too that the bees fare not
really and truly bees that get honey,
but girls just like us.'' They also learn
that they are going to educate Chinese
girl in North China, one of Miss Morrill,
pupils.
The third and last part of the story in

Of a year since she was first known to the
Busy Bees, has come to America to en-
ter medical training school She tells
the story of her prosecutions and SORROWS,
of Miss Morrill, finding her in an old
stable, where she had been placed by her
brothers, and carrying her to cher own
pretty home," where she learned about
Jesus and how to be good"
The Busy Bees invite their friends and
ali interested in their work. to this en-
tertainment for which they have care
fully prepared.
