The Mothers Day program which
was rendered in the NJ. e. Church,
Sunday evening last, by the EpwOrth
League, Miss Lena Swain, leader,
was of a high order and of a very
entertaining character, from the be-
ginning until the end. The duet sung
by the Misses Grace Harper and Mil
dred Ellingsworth, was thoroughly
enjoyed by all present. The drill by
the scholars of the public school of
Slaughter Neck could not be excel
led. It was perfect and when we take
in consideration that the leader was
a boy scarce ten years of age, the
result was marvellous. The marching
and counter marching would have
done credit to girls and boys of
greater age, and when the small
leader at each pause, would bring
his companions in positions until
the word Mother" was spelled in
full, was really thrilling. We con-
gratulate the parents of Slaughter
Neck in having such bright intelli-
gent children and we congratulate
IIlG MISSES OWdln Ctuu lOpBel4Ng LCeb"
chers in the Slaughter Neck school,
of being able to train the children
under their charge to such a degree
of efficiency as was shown here Sun
day evening last. There was a large
congregation present to witness the
exercises.
