Many years had elapsed since 4
general turnout Of Sunday school
scholars took place in Alexandria.
Separate schools have from time to
time appeared on the streets on East
er and other occasions. but practic-
ally all Protestant schools were out
yesterday.
The parade was unique. Pageants
have often been seen in our city, but
they have generally been held on
week days. when miscellaneous null
titudes swelled by thousands from
other cities have appeared on our
streets. The spirit fthe secular has,
of course, characterized such occa-
sions. Yesterday it was the spiritual
and the singing of hymns took the
place of other airs.
The following are the official re-
ports of the Sunday schools in the
parade:
