Allow me, if you please, to correct a
'.harmful and misleading statement.
as Mr.. England terms 1t, which ap-
peared in your last issue.
1t seems to me rather strange that
he would notice simple article OF
news and call 1t an announcement
He even took the trouble to run down
to Miss Baird and demand the meaning
of such an announcement, as If she
was responsible for what appeared un-
der the head of arcadia Items" Per-
NIT me to say to Mr.. England that no
announcement had besu made. only in
the .Arcadia Items" and there / slm :
ply stated it as an article OF news. 1t
was not wholly without authority,
either. for Mr.. Whitworth, the Sup't,
had consented to have the exercises.
and Miss Baird kindly took the trouble
to train the children; but Mr.. England
happened to be at Sunday School the
next Sunday, and made some lengthy
remarks In which he said the enter
tainment was without authority, He
said neither himself nor the Sup't b sd
been consulted about the matter. He
was corrected in this statement; for, as
II said before, Mr.. Whitworth was con-
suited and geve his consent without
hesitation. Nevertheless MIR. +. adj
yised the children to continue praetie-
| ing, and he would help them and try
to make the exercises success. After
eysryone bad learned their part we'll,
Mr.. Whitwcrth handed the proposed
program to Mr.. V. for his worthy con-
sideration. Saturday before Easter
passed, and no decision yet. Easter
morning dawncd; no answer yet, and,
| for a!l know. there never will be. as
liar as Mp. E, is concerned. Now. Mr..
E. does not hesitate to say that he is
the head of the Sunday school. yet he
is seldom found at his post, only siIes
this trouble he is almost a regular at
lttsndaat. He says that he was acting
under the Elders Instructions on Eas-
ter day, but we have good reasons to
ibelieye that the Elder was never maae
/ acquainted with both sides of the ques-
| tfon. and be seemed at a loss to know
whg ths members took so little interes
in the services. We happen to know
| some things the Eidsr saia about this
matter. and we will mention then Ii
lMr. E. demands it, for they are not
entirely against us; but Mr.. E. says the
Prssidina Elder fully endorsed his
| course. If he did, should not MIR. E.
have said so. He should have told the
| children they could not have their
llonred for ENTERTAINMENT, and not hRvd
aisapofn,ed people. That is the reason
I said tho children were disappointed,
and auy one that could look congre-
cation In the face wssid have seen
