Monkton, N. O. r. R.-The Ladies' Guild
met at the Guild Hall, on Thursday afternoon
June 18th, and the treasurer. Mrs. Edwin L.
Pearce, reported 5000 cash in the treasury to
to be applied to the remaining debt on the
Parish House.
OF the five young ladies who graduated last
week from the Manor School Misses Helen
Hutchins and Mary Shelley were the youngest.
each being only - years Of age The friends
of Miss Shelley think she did particularly
year on account OF i'll health OF her mother,
Mrs. William G. Shelley.
And little child shall lead them" could
be the motto of Childrens day, as about 300
people, whose interest in the children drew
them to Clynmalira Church last Sabbath
could testify. On ordinary occasions they do
not attend so numerously. The service was
exceptionally good and was in charge of Mrs.
]. Albert Price, who trained the children, and
Miss Clara Price, organist Miss Bertha q.
Price had prepared the program, or given out
the pieces, but she met with very painful
accident by falling down two or three steps
which, while no bones were broken in the
limb she fell on, has necessitated plaster cast
and considerable suffering. Therefore Mrs. J.
Albert Price took her place in preparing the
children for the service. Mr.. Alex. Guthrie is
superintendent. Among the many fine things
on the program nothing was more interesting
than two Rotations by two little tots not
years DID, A charming recitation was by g.
year old Ethel Sutton, who was composed and
natural, and little Ora Francis recited the 23d
Psalm without being prompted, which seems
remarkable, her age considered. The opening
exercise, "Children's Welcome" was well
done by several little ones who were simply
"cute" REGULATIONS by Miss Maybeth Guthrie,
Mary Shelley and Bette Pearce were much
enjoyed. A dialogue by several boys was fine.
while Scripture reading by Miss Katie Eich-
otis, an exercise entitled 1.-THE Blessed Bible"
was excellent
A number of visitors contributed to the
enjoyment Of the audience by singing charm
ing solos. Among these were Miss Anna
Norris, of White Hall Miss Esther Beall, of
and addresses by the pastor, Rev. VIM. H. Beall,
and a collection, with young ladies for collec-
tors, ended the cbildren's services, after which
a closing song, entitled Light of the World"
large assemblage departed for their homes
well pleased with Clynmaliras Children's day.
Rev. VIM II. Beall, pastor of Monkton Cir
cult, met with serious accident while picking
cherries on Miss Hattie Miller's lawn, on Mon
day afternoon last. The limb on which he
was supporting his weight broke and he fell
distance of 20 feet to the ground, cracking
rib over his heart, which caused severe pain,
and otherwise bruising himself. DR.. T. Ross
Payne was summoned and rendered the neces-
sary attention. Much regret is felt as Rev.
Mr.. Beall has only been at Monkton about
three months, but has become very popular
with his people, who are attesting their inter-
est in his efforts for their good by increasing
the attendance at all the churches where he
breaches, and all the people of the circuit will
sincerely sympathize with him in his misfor-
tune and wish him speedy and complete
recovery.
Rev. A. r. Walker, of Long Green Parish,
occupied st. James pulpit at $50 last Sabbath
afternoon, and will continue to preach for that
congregation during July and August on the
third Sunday in each month at 330PM
Our farmers are harvesting hay and Mr..
Thomas Pearce is cutting wheat, he being the
first on the Manor. The heat of the past few
days has been intense. n.
