The hall was crowded to the door with an interested audience who enjoyed fully the exercises of the little folks. The drills were given in goodstyle and the Christmas (‘flntuta given by a number of the young girls of the School was a most pleasing number. Santa Claus did his part well, to the enjoyment uf the children who suc- ceeded in bribing the “Sandman.” An address and presentation were made to Mr. Allan the faithful Super- intendent of the Sunday School for the past thirteen years. 'lis reply was quite appropriate to the occasion, and at the conclusion of his renmrks Mr. Furquhmwon in 2| l'mv words ex- pressed upprmizttinn of Sir.
