The Ladies' Charitable Society of the
Church of the Unity met in the church
parlors yesterday afternoon at 8

transacted. Tea was served by Mrs.
&c. C. Richardson and Mrs. e. 7. Alex

society will be held Tuesday, Oct. %.
There is a public exhibition of work
done at the summer school, under the
auspices of the Woman's Club, in Room
| II, City Hail. The exhibition will con-
tinue through tomorrow, and is open
| from a. m. to p. m. daily. Yesterday
| it was necessary to pick ones way
| through a collection of chairs in order
| to get look at the work, and then one
had to guess how much of the exhibit
in the room was summer school work
and how much was done by pupils in
| the day schools, for both sets are rep
! resented, and there is no distinguish
| ing label However, the practiced eye,
at least discovers the result of the
summer teaching and it is well worthy
of a visit.
The sewing done by children who had
no previous training is commercially
neat The elementary stitches include
running stitch, back stitch, single
cross, double cross, catch and button
hole. Darning was also carefully ex-
ecuted at the summer schools. Children
of 10, r. 10, boys and girls, did the sew
ing that is shown. Basting, overland
ing and hemming are seen, and pretty
bits of work on silk.
The results of modelling in clay, past
ing pictures in scrapbooks, making
bags and aprons, clothes reels and tow
ell racks,-all are excellent.
The scrapbooks are intended as gifts
to orphans homes, the day nursery,
etc, and will no doubt prove very ac-
ceptable. The summer must have been
filled with pleasure and profit for the
little workers, judging rom the ex-
hibit.
