was all that could be desired. The
reading and reciting by the little
ones showed evidence of careful
Preparation, and the singing re-
nected much credit upon the musi-
cal Instruction in our public schools
and upon those who had trained the
children for this occasion. The audi
ence was much pleased with the song
by little Helen Lord. The christen-
ing of two infants, one of whom was
born on the Pacific coast, was also a
pleasant feature of the service.
