 DAY IN OUR
 CHURCHES.
Young People Present an Enter taining, Program to Large and Appreciative
 Audiences.

Sunday was children's day in the churches and they were bright with the cheerful, smiling face of the little ones and the animated interest of the elder people. It was for the children a day long to be remembered. It was their day. The day was set aside as their very own. To them was awarded the duties of the day--the responsibility of service; and right Loyalty did they do their part. Each and all, from the eld- est to the youngest is entitled to credit for the results attained.
 Faithful Work
 And what shall be said of the teachers and the superintendents who had in hand the training of these little people for this Day of Days? They, too, put in long hours of preparatory work To drill such mass of little folk, and take those individual atoms and mould them into a composite whole that shall work as a unit in carrying the plans of the elders to success, required great pa- tience, rare tact and skillful manipula- tion of diversity of atoms, before the composite picture could stand forth in it's full beauty and harmony. But they did it. All honor to them; and the result of their kindly, patient labor, be- came apparent when the several features of the program unfolded, as the service of the day progressed.
