On last Friday, November Is, oc'
Cured the third monthly Parents
Day" at Frances school. On this &C.
casion our most sanguine expectations
were realized, as majority of the
patrons of the school did actually turn
out; and in time for dinner, too. We
might say that the dinner was the
most engaging feature of the whole
day, inasmuch as it consumed more
time in preparing, eating and clear
ing away (what little was left to clear)
than any other session of the days
program. A big long table was pro-
vided, on which the ladies distrib-
uted chicken, mashed potatoes, cram
berries, bread, biscuits, buns, pie, cake,
jelly, butter, hot coffee, etc., and which
was subsequently surrounded by a
crowd Of younsters and grown-ups
who looked remarkably cheerful in
spite of their very hungry insides.
That hungry feeling, however, soon
gave place to well-rounded self
satisfied sensation in the region of
their abdomens and enabled then to
go on with the following program af-
forwards:
