! SellSl, Is coming OCIODeI zOIu 10 dS-
sist Rev. D. ]. Moore at Grace NJ E
church in evangelistic services
Services of this kind coming in the
fall serve as a reminder that vaca-
tiOns are over and the season OF
harvest and rally days is here. One
of the most familiar expressions OF
the Old Testament is the lament OF
jeremiah: "The harvest is passed.
the summer is ended and we are not
saved" This, like all the sublime
utterances of the Bible, is intended
to warn us of impending evil if we
procrasticate in doing what we
ought. Every season, seed time and
harvest, brings its golden oppOrtun-
tiles, and these opportunities, once
neglected, are gone forever
Special services are to be held in
st. Marks P. E. church Friday
night, Sunday morning and Sunday
night. The Church Army will have
charge of these services.

/ School Notes
| Mrs. Atkins and her home econom-

the attractiveness and convenience
of their room. During the past
week they have purchased and in
stalled the following: One large
pressure cooker, one large waterless
cooker, one end table and magazine
rack, and a beautiful linen lunch
cloth, with napkins to match.
A large glass showcase has been
purchased and is being put in shape
by the sixth grade children under
the direction of Mrs. Ellis and Mrs.
McCabe. When the children have.
finished their work, the case will be
placed in the main corridor and used
to exhibit historical relics and an
tiques belonging to the school.
Last week the school was given a
splendid musical program by Prof.
and Mrs. Gildersleeve. AS state di-
rector of music, Prof. Gildersleeve
will visit the various schools of the
state during the year and try to i'm
prove the instructions given in mu-
sic wherever possible. He expressed
himself as being well pleased with
the work being done in MillsborO.
Since the old piano has been con-
demned, the school plans to buy
new one in the near future. The
upper grades, under the direction of
Mrs. McCabe, are planning to buy a
set of graphaphone records, which
is recommended by Prof. Glider
sleeve. They have already raised
the money for this purpose.
The little room being used by one
section of the first grade was ma
terially improved as a class room by
the addition of a blackboard. Mr..
Noah Atkins, who was employed to
do the work, did a first class job.

does his work we'll and can be de-
pended upon, he has been employed
to make several tables for the school,

use soon.

rendered in the school auditorium
