Last Saturday was day long to be re-.

Tor severni reasons, one special reason
was cold rainy day and numbor of

was children's day at Bethel church.
We did not expect to find many people
present on account Of the bad weather,
but we were somewhat surprised when
we reached the church, considering
such a day az 1t was, and it nearly filed,
ana II 1T had been ~ real nice day as
some we have been having we feel CON
fihent that the church would have not
near held all the people. The exercises
were began about II o'clocl1, opened by
music, followed 10y prayer 10y the super-

exercises were carried out very imprcs-

number OF comments passed on them.
On account Of the inclemency of the
weather several Of the children were
detained from being present, who were

were expected to be present and make
addresses, but they did not come. Al.
ter the program had been carried out
dinner was announced, and on account
or the rain, some planks wore brought
into the house and laid across the tops
OF the pew, which formed table, where
all ate to hearts content, we think.
After dinner Rev. }. w. Banton, the
pastor Of the church, made an excellent
address on Sunday school work and

Bethel to be long remembered by a
