CHILDREN's DAY AT THE METHODIST
CHURCH.
Chlldren's day was celebrated at the
Methodist church, on Sunday evening, by
a most attractive program. The exer-
cises began with procession of the Sun
day school singing "Onward Christian
Soldier" At their head marched two
little tots, bearing large cross made of
daisies. Songs, declarations and music
followed, the exercises ending with a
part entitled "The young people repub-
lic." Miss Olivia Sanford, as Liberty"
did herself great credit, and both in
costume and defamation acted her part
most admirably. Aaron Sanford repre-
sented flaw, Miss Banker intelligence,
Miss Alice GOrham fraternity, Hezekiah
Nickerson temperance, Miss Kitty Shaw
uprightness and John Z. Shaw patriot
ism. AS each speaker finished star
with his theme inscribed thereon was
handed to liberty, and fastened to blue
banner hanging in the chancel, with a
few remarks from the pastor. A coilec-
tion for the educational fund of the
Methodist church closed the exercises.
1t was the most successful and pleasing
of any Of the celebrations OF the day
ever held in Redding.

THE LAWN PARTY AT MRS sAGENDoRF's
SUCCESS.
The lawn party of the Junior Guild at
Mrs Sagendorf's, was success in every
respect. The weather was favorable,
the attendance good and the net profits
will be about $40. 1t was very pleasant
considered from social point of view.
Since the ladies' guild have practically
given up strawberry and ice cream festi-
walls it very naturally falls into the
hands of the Juniors, who generally make
q success of it.

is set the first and much the second, as
the cut worm is giving much trouble, in
one or two cases taking nearly all of the
first setting There will be quite an in
crease of acreage, mostly by kthose who
have not raised for two or three years.
