Song Service.

The song service at the First Presby-
terian church Sunday night was
thoroughly delightful one. The singing
by the choir Was exceptionally fine, and
each number on the programme was
rendered with much credit to the parti-
cipants. The solos by Mrs. g. A. Forgey
and Mr.. j. M. fowler ard the quar-.
tette by Mrs. Forgey, Mrs. Street, DIR.

out of the city of a number of the mem.
bers. The pastor had the pleasure OF
receiving number into the fellowship
of the church.

gathering of children, at the close
which, in company with members of the
church session visits were made and the
