Sunday afternoon last. The exercises
were held in the grove adjoining the
church. A large platform had been
erected and beautifully trimmed and
decorated for the occasion Promptly
at o'clock the procession which had
formed at the church, composed of
members of the school, started on their
march for the grove headed by Mr..
Joseph Bennett and Mrs. D. S. Thomp-
son, the superintendent of the school.

tations were excellent, and showed
much skill employed in training the
children to speak. The singing was a.
prominent feature of the occasion, but
that was only to be expected, as Mil

was delightfully."- entertained by the
program rendered.
