Yesterday was Children's sunday at
the Asbury M. Il. Church and last
evening a Sunday school concert was
given In the church. The program was
an unusually interesting one, and well
carried out, and In the opinion OF the
pastor 1t was the best ever given In the
church. The superintendent OF the Sum
day school, George Il. Baker, Is an un-
tiring and energetic Official, and he and
his corps OF assistants are entitled to
great credit for the excellent showing
maae by the pupils last evening. Inc
superintendent has also very healthy
ideas about the effect OF practical lessons
being given In scripture by the aid OF ar
tists and scientists, and last night nne
painting of Noah's Ark by Mr.. George
Johnson, and rsinbow was.shown on
the picture by electricity, the effect being
very inspiring. The latter was given
under the direction of Messrs. Frederick
.and Ed win Lougee. The painting show
ed the ark first as floating on the
waters, and then when the rainbow was
displayed as resting on Mount Arrarat.
