These are the days when there is a
determined effort to have the school
work correlate with that of the busy
so-called outside world. Teachers are
urged TO have their subjects suitable
to the grade and to the locality; to
bring the real things close to the chill
dren, not only by pictures, but also by
excursions in which the child sees the
object. Following this line, parents
and teachers of Belleville school have
co-operated to give the A the oppor-

MOUNT oLIVET NOTES.

At the time of the Sunday-schOol ser
vice last Sunday the regularly appoint
ed program for the day was carried
out and the intercessional prayers in
behalf of the workers in the fields of
Missions were said.
There was quite an attendance of
friends from across the river at both
morning and evening services. The
rector. in accordance with the law of
the Church, read the pastoral letter of
the House of Bishops at the IL a. m.
service. At night speaking from the
text st. John II: 2, 3, he dwelt upon
the rapidly grown divorce evil in our
city and the causes therefor.
The Woman's Guild held a most en-
thusiastic and largely attended meet
ing at the rectory on last Tuesday eve
ming The reports of the officers show
ed the Guild to be in a splendid condi-
ton. Mrs. Slack, the retiring presi-
dent, was presented with a very hand
some set for her bureau of Partisan
ivory by Mrs. J. f. Huckins, the sue
ceeding president, in words of tender
appreciation of the work she has ef-
lfected since her entrance upon that
office. This gift from the Woman s
Guild came as a complete surprise to
her and her remark, Isn't it beauti-
| full" expressed both her feelings with
regard to the gift and the spirit which
prompted it.
Tomorrow night the Rt. Rev. Davis
Sessums, d. D., Bishop of the Diocese,
will visit the parish for the purpose of
administering the apostolic rite of cor
firmation. The service will be held at

extended to all to be present The
class confirmed will make their first
communion on Sunday morning at 1880
O'Clock
| The rector has asked especially that
everyone who has been presented by
him for confirmation since he assumed
charge of this parish be present and
receive the holy communion at this
service, which will be the last regular
service at which he will celebrate the
communion as rector of this parish.
Our sympathy goes out to the be,
reaved family of the late Mrs. Adeline
Elizabeth Boylan, who entered upon
rest last Friday morning at 3:15 o;
clock. A great sufferer for many
months past, she bore it with Christian
resignation and fortitude. Devoted to
her family, her one idea was to shield
and protect them, and her great desire
for health was that she might further
aid them. The funeral took place
from the family residence in Olivier
street and in the church, with inter
ment in Greenwood cemetery, on Sat
urday. May God grant unto her rest
and peace and may light perpetual
shine upon her And may they who
are bereaved find comfort in the love
lof the All-Father.
Last Sunday morning at the IL o
clock service Raymond Louis, infan
son of Mr.. and Mrs. August Fredericl
Umbach, was baptized, the sponsors
being Anna May johnson and Claytol

ALHAMBRA WILL ENTER.
TAIN LADIES.
ENTERTAINMENT is
SCHEDULED FOR FEBRUARY
10 - ADJUSTMENTS AT THE
CLUBS SWIMMING POOL AND
GYMNASIUM.

At the last meeting of the board Of
directors of the Alhambra Gymnastic
Club, which was held last Wednesday
night in their parlors, it was decided
that the members would entertain all
their lady relatives as well as a few
Invited guests. \ committee was ap-
pointed to look after this and at the
committee meeting Monday night it
was decided that each member would
be permitted to invite his entire fam
lily to participate III a reception to be
given them at which there will be some
high class vaudeville entertainment,
with refreshments, to be followed later
on with dancing.
This is the first social that the club
has given to the ladies and il is the be-
ginning of a series of events of the
| kind.
The main building of the club has
now been completed, the finishing
touches having been placed on during
this week. The ladies dressing room
is now being added in which is being
placed a beautiful mirror and every
convenience and comfort for the fair
sex.
On Monday night several committees
who met at the club enjoyed a fish
supper, which was prepared by one of
the members and jolly crowd joined
in the levity which followed. 1t has
been limited that every Monday night
from now on at the meetings of the
house committee there will be a warm
lunch and little social time after the
meeting.
Plans and specifications for the big
swimming pool which is to be 25x30
feet, with a depth of about feet, are
in the hands of the architects, who are
going over them thoroughly in order
that every convenience and safeguard
| will be provided for this big feature.
The building for the gymnasium, which
will be an addition to the main build
ing, is also in the hands of the con-
tractors who are arranging TO give bids
for same. This work has been delayed
for some time on account of some
changes in the plans.
The membership of the club is stead
lily increasing and it is one of the few
organizations of recent origin whose
capital stock is now at a premium. The
original shares of stock were sold for
$50 a share, and on account of the we'll
made real estate trade and the enhanc-
ed value of the property by means of
improvements, etc, has placed the as.
sets of the club far above the amount
of the outstanding stock, which makes
the stock-holding members feel rather
good over their investment.
At the next meeting there will be
several new members applications
brought up to be voted on.

One Feature OF Jesus' ished." He meant
Deoth-Bdpttsm. that His baptism
Into death was completed. He was
raised out of that death-baptism on
the third day by the Fathers Power.
That baptism meant the full renun-
citation Of all earthly rights; and the
Master asked those dear disciples
whether they were able to share His
cup of ignominy and His baptism into
death. The same principle applies to
all followers of Jesus. 1t is for each
to decide whether he will drink of the
Masters cup and share His baptism
into death. Only the lowly, the self
sacrificing. win be able II willing to
endure such experiences.
The other Apostles were indignant
that James and John should have
made such a request. However. the
incident afforded Jesus opportunity for
laying down the rules which must
govern in respect to greatness in the
Messianic Kingdom. There whoever
serves most will have the highest
honor.
