unusually given an entertainment for
the children. The closing number

event was the distribution of package.

of this also, no doubt. was the cause
of the scant attention given to the adj
dress of the Sunday school superin-

seeing everywhere signs of restless
ness, paused in his remarks after a
while and said:
