Sunday school; papers illustrating
methods in use, bearing names of
early Harrisburgers; photographs of
/ forefathers of some well-known cfti-
zens and many historical objects. The
exhibition attracted much attention
yesterday and to-day owing to its ex-
cellent chronological arrangement and
the careful selection from contents of
the church vault of papers dealing
with the development of Sunday school
work. Few churches even in this COM

hyterian Church. preached is also
shown. with some of the hymn books
used in the early schools. The social
side of the Sunday school is shown by
the flag that used to be borne at the
head of the scholars when they
marched out on picnics. This flag has
the thirteen stars in the circle and. is
said to be the oldest in Harrisburg
outside of the State Library museum.
Other picnic accessories were the uten-
sils for making lemonade, while there
Is also shown the program of the day
in the woods, which includes exercises
and three periods at which ginger
bread and other things were served.
The collection was assembled by a
committee consisting of Miss Pearson.
Mrs. f. c. Kunkel. Miss Anne Roberts
Kelker, Samuel w. Fleming and
George Roberts. Many prominent Har-
Iisburg families contributed to It.

10 You in the noon of living
Came dream of wondrous beauty,
came fair and lovely vision
Ot a place endowed by nature
With bright streams and lake and
woodland
Circling round a stately mountain.
Where white tents and lodges gleam-
ing
In the sunlight and the moonlight
Would enfold gay laughing maidens
through the long and happy summer,
spent In hours of carefree pastime
From their lessons and their working
In canoeing, hikes and riding.
Games and sports and merry dancing.
First at Trout Run pioneering
Firm. in purpose. never fearing,
Though at times somewhat discour-
aged.
That your vision would come true.
There you stayed. until at Mouriand
You could work with larger planning.
Then q mlghtier ambition
And inherent intuition
Let you to the stately mountain.
Shown YOU in your wondrous vision.
There you placed the tents and build
ings
Made of stone and wood and canvas
You had seen, while you were dream
In the years of fine desiring,
Thither came in throngs the maid
ems
At your welcoming alluring--
With fair smiles and starry glances
To the summer home YOU offered
AT Nepahwin, restful haven.
Eagerly they soon discovered
Fairy woodlands all about them.
round Hill Top whereon standing
They enjoyed a view commanding
Sweep of far off hills and mountains
With the sunlight Ger them glowing
AS mother DER her children;
Saw the lake lie clear as crystal
Mirroring Nepahwin's beauty.
After happy, arduous walking
ON the road and through the wood
land,
They beheld a rocky stairway
Hewn long since by Rugged Children
Who to Cedar Ledge light leaping
stood with reverent arms uplifted
In q silent prayer of wonder
To the sun god on his rising
Ger far lying fields of grasses
lnlaid with fair Lake Nepahwin,
Musical with sparkling waters.
Then they found a place one morning
Where the waters falling, glittering
Like the wells of spirit maidens
Clung to steep and rocky hillsides
To these falls in moonlit evenings
Oft these joyful maidens riding
Built great campfires brightly burning
Where they toasted white marshmal-
lows,
Had their bacon bats and feasting
With wild laughing and gay singing
Far into the starlit evenings.
Then with trustful eyes returning
From their fires no longer burning
They were soon in your kind keeping.
In your shelter safely sleeping.
