A CARD OF THANKS.


 The musical and literary entertain ment, given under the direction of Mrs George Clark on the evening of June 6. for the benefit of the Methodist church, was a complete success in ev- cry way. The different parts taken by each of the 23 children in the 12 numbers, under her teaching and drill ing, were finely rendered, and it was not task for her but simply great pleasure. and we church wish to express to her and to the children our heartfelt thanks and gratitude. We wonder if any one realized that there was so much talent among the children of Long Hill. We think not Let us strive to cultivate those talents for not many years will pass ere these little ones will take the places of the older ones and the responsibilities of life will rest upon them. We extend our thanks also to our neighbors and friends of Grace Episcopal church for their kindness in contributing in so many ways to the evenings entertainment Very many familiar faces we notice in the audience. To MT Davis who so AlIiuly dIIlOuC0Q LIl0 program, to INIT George Clark for fulfilling so well the duties entrusted to him, to Mrs Tracy Cunning who worked with untiring efforts wherever she saw work to do, both before and after, in arranging the stage and getting the children in read mess for their parts in each number, to Miss Nettleton for the pleasure she gave us in recitations and we hope to hear her again, to Miss Lillian Leavitt for her sweet songs. The "Old Maids" presented the farce well and if "Prof Makaneux" can only retain his power and his wonderful machine we need never to grow old only in years, not in looks. We thank you all and in closing will say by your efforts combined with what we could do the Ladies' Aid so- ciety has received gift of $143, which were the net proceeds of the en- tertainment
