THE ABERDEEN MINISTRIES.

The people of Bel Air gave the Aberdeen
minstrels royal welcome last Tuesday
night 1t was big audience despite the
rain and a liberal one too inits applause.
Not but what the boys deserved it
though. To sum it up in three words
They did splendidly." The encores were
frequent and the sense of shyness that
was first apparent soon gave PLACE to q
feeling very much at home as was
evidenced by the liberal manner in which
the localhits were passed around. Almost
every one came under the list and a
hearty laugh was the reward for every
localized joke. 1t would be hard to
praise any particular portion of the pro-
gramme without including all but the
orchestra under the direction OF Prof
Baldwin deserves particular mention.
Like musical aggregations from Balti-
more have visited Bel Air, but in the
rendition Of popular music, Aberdeen has
not been surpassed. Mr. George H.
WINS was the interlocutor and he made
good one. Mr.. George w. Brock, of
the Aberdeen Enterprise, was exceedingly
funny as end man. He had excellent as
sociates in Messrs, P. Texts Baker. c. H.
Jacobs and Thomas Riley. Vocal parts
were given by Messrs. P. T. Baker, Harry
O. WINS, E. Tarring, George H. WINS,
George W. Brock and also the entire
company. The second part opened with
funny dialogue after which the Nc,
Comas Qurtette rendered several choice
selections. Mr.. Paul krouse made g
good exhibition of Indian club swinging
He was followed by MIR. E. Earring who
performed a number of difficult feats OF
the horizontal bar. Another short
dialogue was followed by court scene
which was a clever come off on our coun
ty officials. If there was room for {
single criticism it might be suggested the
programme be reversed.

Decision Day,

The Maryland Sunday School Union invites
all Sunday Schools in NJ aryland to observe
April 3Oth as Decision Day. 1t is not intend
cd that the matter of Decision be postpon-
ed until the day mentioned. 1t is really a
rcaping day-a day on which the faithful in
structions and personal work of the teachers
are manifested. 1t is hoped, therefore, that
the teachers will begin at once, if they have
not already begun, to make earnest prayer in
behalf of their scholars, and earnest appeals
during the lesson hour and in personal in
tcrviews at their homes and elsewhere, to
give themselves to Christ. The pastor and
superintendent can greatly aid in their public
to awaken serious thought on the
subject of religion; and the parents have an
opportunity, with their wonderful influence,
to make Decision Day day of ingathering of
the precious children and youth of the Sunday
School into the kingdom of Christ.
