KEDRoN, May 1S.-Nothing affords us
more pleasure than to note the inter
esting children's day at BlantOns
Chapel last Sunday; the church was
beautifully decorated with evergreens
and flowers of every description, indie
cative of the admiration and enduring
esteem of Christ Jesus our God. The
floral arches formed lovely canopy
and beneath it the Rotations, songs
and music were rendered. Little girls
and boys carried banners with proper
notices inscribed thereon through the
isle of the church, and on the floral
walls was artistically arranged elegant
letters of the words, "Suffer little chill
dren to come unto me and forbid them
not" DR.. j. r. Mallard and Rev. T. w.
holland and Misses Sue Parks and
Myrtle Davis conducted the affair.
Rev. holland delivered lecture which
was not only interesting to the little
ones but delighted the aged people.
