of the congregation. All were pleased
| to see the improvements that had been
made in the interior of the building, by
John A. Wander, of Salem. and his
assistants. They painted and decorated
the walls and ceiling neatly, and oak
grained the pews and wainscoting, and
| vanished all the woodwork. A new
carpet was furnished by Van Solver & Co..
of Camden. About the pulpit there was
a beautiful collection of flowers. The
choir sang voluntary at each service.

Psalm 90: 8, "Lord, l have loved the

At the entertainment at the East
Avenue Hotel on last Tuesday evening
the musical and evolutionary part of the
program was carried out by the choir,
assisted by Misses Agnes and Louise
Howson, Lewis and Warren Shinn, and
the instructive paper on the Columbian
Exposition by Percival Norris was read,
but the promised pictures could not be
exhibited, owing to some fault in the
lantern, which developed suddenly and
could not be remedied at the time. Mr..
Norris, the owner of the lantern and
slides, was prevented from being present
Oh account of the death of his aunt
whose funeral he attended that day in
Maryland. Since that time the lantern
has been put in order. The choir wish
ing to make amends for the disappoin,-
ment, have arranged for a free exhibition
of all the pictures without the lecture, al

Monday evening, Aug. 18Th, at 73(
O'Clock, and all who attended the enter
tainment on last Tuesday evening are
cordially invited to be present.
