M. ^. held their Easter offering meeting in the church last Wednesday evening, after which the girls of the league served the boys with a pork and bean supper in the hall, the reward for the boys winnig the contest. The girls were not far behind. One thing that we think greatly to be recomended is that the boys were lacking some person to play the organ and one of the girls played for them, and the boys held themselves responsible for an organist for them This is surely the true spirit of the contest. Do the best you can to win and help the other side too.
