The Pennsylvania railroad, In connection

considered this would make an awkward
crossing and as all the property on the
north side of the avenue in the square Is

celebrated last Sunday morning and even
ing at Eldbrooke NJ e. Church, Tenley-

songs by the little folks. Those participant
ing in the program, together with many OF

enlarged platform and when they arose to
sing the opening chorus, March on Ye
Legions,'' the expression on the many faces
made an inspiring picture.
The remainder of the program, as was
that of the evening, consisted largely of
songs and recitations interspersed with
solos and motion songs, the drill by four
teen of the young ladies of the school be-
ing especially we'll received.
The church was tastefully decorated with
potted plants, cut flowers and hanging
vines. The exercises reflected credit on

the drilling OF the children.
