Baptist Sunday School met in Cummings
Hall and gave Penny March and Japa-

tractive with tables of plants, Japanese
pictures, and very daintily spread tea
table. A fine programme was prepared
by Mrs. Taylor, also very interesting
talk was given by her on Missions in
Alaska. After the exercises, both young
and old joined in the Penny march, the
smallest child leading. The little boxes
were opened as they marched and the
pennies dropped into a Japanese basket.

A recent number of the Cambridge
Mass Chronicle gives very compli-
mentary report of concert given at
Newtowne Hall in that city by Miss
Eleanore S. Hayden, who is a frequent
visitor at Paris Hill. Miss Hayden was
assisted by the Hayden Mandolin Club,
of which she is director, reader, and
vocal, violin and whistling soloists. Of
Miss Hayden's numbers the Chronicle
says: "Miss Hayden herself gave two
numbers on the mandolin, and her mas
terry and skill in producing real music
was such that she made her audience
feel that they were listening to the
mandolin for the first time. The beauti-
full flowers showered on her testified to
the place she holds in the hearts of both
pupils and friends"
