The church was filled to ca- pacity, with the members of the Sun- day. School in attendance. An outstanding part of the pro- gramme, was the presentation of a beautiful bouquet of carnations to R. E. Sparks. Dr. Sparks is the oldest member of the church, having just passed his seventy-fifth birth- day. He has been connected with ~ the church for forty-niné years, and is beloved and honored by all. The \_ presentation was made by little Ted ) yPaynter, the youngest member of tho _\Sunday School. Rev. W. H. Raney poke of Dr. Sparks as "the young- ster of the school." A recitation of welcome was splendidly given by little Myrtle Mec- Donald. The primary department sang a "Chéer Up" song beautifully. A group recitation by the Beginners, was very well received. It was notice- able that the little tots had bean trained carefully, and their work re- { flected back to the time and pati- ence of the teachers. June Miller re- cited very sweetly. Rev. W! H. Raney in his sermon- ette, told a story to the children of the School. The moral of his story was that "happiness does not depend on riches, but on the right spirit." He left an impression not only with the children, but with the grown up members of the congregation as well. The main event of the programme was the consecration of the Colours of the Queen Street Company, Girl Guides, The beautiful silk colors were borne by Guide Lieutenant Gene Healey, and were guarded by Guides Violet Armstrong and Edith MecLroy. In the course of the con- secration, Rev. Mr. Raney said that he had read over.the Guide Laws, and he was firmly satistied that if the Guides lived up to these laws, they would have a very happy and clean life. He said that he was very proud of the company. and its lead- ers, and was satisfied that it was do- ing splendid work fowards building up the young womanhood of the church, The announucement from the sec- retary showed that the collection was over $35, which is more than last Year. ----, 'Av First Baptist Church. ~ Sunday was observed as "Flower Sunday" at the First Baptist Church, and the special programme provided was a most enjoyable one.

A branch of work being carried on. by the Kingston Public Library for the past three years, which has been practically unkmown to the majority of citizens of Kingston, is that of conducting libraries in two of the schools of the' city, that are situated ip the outlying districts. Frontenac and Depot schools have been. supplied with books from the Librafy for some time past, and that this service is appreciated by the students, teachers and parents is certain, as has been expressed by them many times. These schools, Wecause of the long distance from the Library; have special libraries of books supplied by the Public Library, consisting of readers and story books. These have been very wide- ly circulated, and have heen read not only by the students themselves, but by many of the parents. Ths books are of great value to the children and give them many ideas that they would not otherwise have. In Fron- tenac school, during the last term, there were two hundred books in use, and these were circulated twen- ty-three hundred times in the homes. In the senior third room alone, the highest number of hooks read was thirty-five, and in the jun- for fourth the average was eighteen.
