CHILDREN
HAVE A DAY

The children held full sway in most
of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Bap-
fist Churches of this city yesterday. The
day was observed as "Children's Day"
and the programs were probably more
elaborate than have been prepared for
similar occasions in a number Of years.
The decorations were also unusually
elaborate and consisted of cut flowers,
palms, plants, flags and bunting. A
large quantity of the cut flowers dis
played in the churches had been gathered
during the week by the children. The
day was an ideal one for such occasions
and all of the services were largely at
tended.
At West Presbyterian Church one Of
the most elaborate programs of the day
was rendered in the morning. The
church was beautifully decorated with
cut flowers, palms and bunting. The
pulpit was filled with cut flowers Of all
descriptions.
Governor Hum attended the exercises
at West Church and made an interesting
address to the children. At the opening
of the exercises the children marched in
the main auditorium Of the church sing
ing columbia, Gem of the Ocean, A
special feature of the program was a
drill by the infant department In ad-
dition to the above there were also Il
number of solos, recitations and choruses
by the school.
The exercises at Grace NJ. T.. Church
were also held in the morning. The
