On Wednesday, the 21st inst, Sun
nyside school closed with appropriate
exercises. This school, taught the
past winter by Miss Margaret Kerns,
has acquired the well merited reputa-
ton of being the most progressive
and up-to- date school in this part of
Garrett county.
One of the urgent needs of the de-
vout people of this place is a union
church building The union among
our people is and has been for the
past thirty or thirtytive years all
that could be desired, but we need
the building in which to worship.
The Union Sunday school at this
place, which has been in such pros
porous conditions since the spring of
1880, would be benefited by having
a larger building in which to conduct
the good work. We earnestly hope
that the veteran Sunday school
workers and promoters of good in
general will become interested in this
church building business and give us
the benefit of their influence to the
end that we may get the much need
ed house.
