DAY EXERCISES
The Smaller Classes Contribute to
Most of the Features on the
Program

Sunday morning the C%hildrens'
Day exercises of the Methodist
church were held and the church
was packed with both old and young
to witness the work OF the little
folks, by whom the leading features
OF Che progam we're presented. The
platform was filed with little folks
from the primary department and
the cradle roll was in evidence with
La number OF babies making their
first appearance in Sunday school.
The pulpit and surroundings were
decorated with flowers and notices
OF an appropriate character An i'm
.trodnctory address directed to the
cradle roll was given by Thelma
Cassem, and this was followed by
songs, re%citations and choruses frolu
the various departments in tile
school, and all proved OF a highly
interesting character.
During the exercises Pastor Will
kinson baptized ten babies that be-

by the parents placing their names
on the cradle roll.
a collection was taken up for the
benefit Of the fund which has been
established for worthy young people
to borrow from who were not able
to paw their way through college.
PERHAPS a dozen students i'm the
local University find this a source
of help. The money is repaid when
they leave college and Obtain en-
pldsment. The collection amounted
TO a little oyer $l4.
The day was a highly successful
one throughout and the program
given was a slight departure from
the usually conventional one on this
aav.

KINDLY REMEMBRANcEs
Gen. Wolgemuth Remembered Will
a Token and He in Turn Sur
prised His Quartermaster.

Tile closing hours of the Grand
Army Of the Republics encampment
at Yankton was filled with one OF
two happy surprises to retiring Off
GERS. General WGlgemuth and General
Nash having been the recipients OF
tokens for their efficient work.
The Yankton Herald speaks thus
of the two Incidents:
the department presented the retir-
ing president with a jewel signify
ing its appreciation of his labors.
On behalf Of the department. Gen. {.
B. Clark, of Deadwood, in a speech

beautiful and significant badge.
Beautiful because Of its artistic ip.

only signifies the sentiment that
prompted its presentation bat gives
In some detail the war record Of the
man who will treasure il above most
earthly things. In its complex vet
simple design, it signifies that j.
b. Woloemuth to whom the token
presented at Yankton in 1906
ranked as a major general and that

Fl. 73rd Ill. Artillery. 4th division,
18th corps. The 14th corps was the
army of the Cumberland known as the
western army. Gen. Wolgemuth also
wears a badge presented by his regi-
mental association which recalls a
part OF his war record previous to his
transfer to the l4th corps This badge
signifies service in the lst brigade,
End division, 4th corps. The division
was in command of Sheridan, the
corp in command of Thomas.
One of the pleasing side features
of the encampmept was the individ-
ual presentation Of a silver loving

way, was purchased by Mr. Wolge-

A PUPILS RECITAL
Miss Goodykoontz's Annual Event i,
Musica. Circles Was Rich in
Musical Lore.

At the Congregational churcl.
Thursday evening occurred the
twelfth annual recital OF the pupils
of Miss Grace Goodykoontz, the de-
%seKvedly popular voice teacher, of
this city. The attendance on this
occasion was large anG the concert
was paitonized by those who are
thoroughly app1eciative OF excellent
music, and the audience demonstrat-
ed time and again the sincerity of its
earnestness in attesting to the good
qualit1 of the work done by the
| pupils. The writer has never missed
one OF Miss Goodykoontz's recitals
since she instituted them twelve
years ago, and it has been a pleasure
to note the development that has
been manifest in the many young
ladies and gentlemen who have come
under her instruction, and she has
turned out from her studio singers
who have been received into higher
musical circles elsewhere.
The members OF the class presented
at this recital were those who have
studied several years and Others who
been under instruction but a wear.
and in each cas- the methods of the
teacher were shown i'm the results
obtained from the pupils. We would
be glad indeed to mention individ-
ually each participant on the tine
program but the lack of time fOrbids,
suffice it to, say that each number
was received i'm Il hearty manner ny
the audience. The ladies who have
been studying for three or four years
presented selections that were rem
dered with a charming grace and
finish that was pleasing to listen to.
Miss Goodylloontz was warmly con.
graduated OH the fine success of the
evening. Miss Mccormick and Miss
G%oodYkoontz acted as accompanies
during the evening. The following
