Grace Episcopal Sunday school has
it's greatest service of the year, in
the church, on Easter evening This
year there are to be several features
of especial interest-some new, some
revived from the days when the pres
ent teachers were the scholars.
The service in the church is at
1880 p. m, but the scholars are to
meet in the basement at p. m. Led
by the Busy Bees" the primary
class, they will march up into the
church, singing, Come Ye Faith
full" for the professional.
There will be the usual carols and
address, and various reports. Miss
Edgett, the treasurer, will give an ac-
count of the financial condition of
the school, which includes that of
the different amounts which are
known as the Parish Building
Fund" Miss Charlotte Bauman will
give the secretary's report, of which
the individual attendance report is an
interesting feature, showing that the
badge system which was introduced
during the past year, has proved a
great success.
The school is taking great interest
in this service, and it is hoped that
there will be a good attendance on
the part of those who are interested
in the school.
