CHILDREN'S DAY AT MOUNT HOPE.

Children's day at Mount Hope Sab
bath school was fittingly celebrated
About 200 were present, including
many parents and visitors. and repre-
senting all ages from the wee ones to
the hoary headed. The school room
was beautifully decorated with a rich
profusion of ferns and flowers. The
walls were artistically adorned with
colored crayon drawings and scripture
texts, which taught many forceful
truths. Mrs. Harris was the successful
artist. Our national flag in graceful
folds and our native leaves in gay fes.
ICONS, enhanced the beauty of the scene.
Three silver bells, Faith Hope and
Charity" also added their charm.
AS the happy company approached
the school house they were greeted by
old glory proudly waving above tree
top, nature in this case providing the
flag staff. Just above the door was the
salutation "Welcome," made in unique
letters formed of green pine cones. The
seating capacity of the house was over
taxed, and the yard was we'll occupied
by the overflow audience.
After a few Introductory words by
the superintendent. missionary pro-
gram was rendered which did great
credit to all participating. Several
musical numbers were highly apprecia
ted. A number of recitations were
given, and were greatly enjoyed by all.
The. Cry of the Nations was most
impressive exercise, given by ten young
ladies. five. the Misses Mae Gregg, Win
ME Parrot, Matte Sanger, Annie An
derson and Sophia Larson, representing
respectively Japan, China, Turkey, In
dia and the Islands of the Sea, and five,
the Misses Ethel Gregg, Lois Ballard,
Katie Sanger, Nellie Shoner and
Clara Yeager. representing Mes
sengers of Love. AS each nation
made a pathetic appeal for the gospel,
a messenger of love stepped forward
speaking glad tidings and presenting
Bible Rev. Adams spoke in an inter
esting and instructive manner of the
origin and meaning of Childrens Day
Mrs. Harris, the superintendent,
made the pre-collection address. first
speaking pointedly and humorously on
the subject of "Signs." She believes
that merchants have no monopoly on
signs but that each society and indi-
vidual unconsciously hangs out signs,
thus gaining appreciation or disapproval.
She thinks good sign for Sunday
school is faithfulness on the part of
superintendent and teachers which will
inspire faithfulness on the part of the
scholars She declared the purpose of
the celebration to be the salvation of
those who had been attracted there. In
referring to the collection she said she
had prayed for $40 but her hearts de-
sire and prayer was more than realized
for ere the strains of the voluntary had
ceased, $13.36 had been contributed.
The pastor and superintendent express
ed hearty thanks for the liberal re-
Spouse and extended cordial invita-
ton to all to become regular members
of the school.
We trust that Mount Hope may en-.
Joy many more such memorable &C.
casions and may ever be bright and
shining light for the Master. K.
