 It was the privilege of the writer IO SSt II6 6AHlUlI lOW III IhO oChOoio. On calling at the church to secure some facts regarding the excursion, he was shown through, an incidently thecirculating library, comprising over 200 volumes also the study library. Thence through the kindness of Rev. Fla A. Coll, to the school buildings where there were shown all kinds of fancy work in crochet, embroidery and needle work. One could hardly realize how the little children could be taught to make such nice work and surely the Sisters who are the teachers are to be congratulated in their skill as such. The whole community owe them an evH Ia stins debt of gratitude for the manner in which they teach the art of fancy needle work to the young. There were all kinds of garments, pnllow shams, towells, scarfs, etc., worked over in various colors of silk.
 A large oil painting in the church, with wide border done in silks is also the work of the Sisters, and is surely a work of art which every one should see.
 The excursion to the children was the gift of Frank, Martin. Two hun dred adults paid their own fair to the picnic grounds.
