the Sunday School who could get near m
the pulpit and chancel took part in the .
of exercises. There was a large number of ,
jen children and they executed their parts :
with credit to their teachers and them- b(
, selves. The songs were well rendered,
s especialh so with the little girls. They
." are line singers and their sweet voices

this feature of the occasion. The exer- p,,
