dist people in Grenada that they don't
send their children to Sunday-school
any more? Do they expect the College
crowd TO ''do the religious act" for

move Mr.. McDade up to the College
and give him such a rousing Methodist
welcome he will think he is at home

Misses Thelma Winkler and Amelia
Hunger went to their respective homes
on Friday afternoon last. We know
