Empire' day in a right loyal ma er on
Tuesday afternoon. The eihildre f the
senior forms were assemble -a in th argest
teem in the school, which lied e n ap-
propriately decorated for the i3cairi n The
room, it is needlese to say, w s w 11 filled
with bright, intelligent, well-behav d little
folks who seemed to greatly anjoy t e pro-
ceedings. There were not as 'man f the
parents presenaas there might ha s I been.
The programme consisted of several atriotio
selections, such aas " The Mapl Leaf,"
" Red White ancrBlue," &a, sung by the
children very nicely, and there wer recita-
tions well -rendered and of a like 1 n ture.
Addresses suitable for the occasi n were
given by Trustees Ballantyne and umsden,
Mayor Gunn, Revds. Goldemi h and
Hodgins, and Mr. M. Y. MeLe n. Mr.
i
McFaul, the principal, presided. B sides
the teachers,' there were also presen s veral
ladies, whoed shoW;their interest in their
children by their attendance. The ceasion
was a moat einjoyable one, and whil reflect-
ing credit on' the teachers, seemed t be ap-
preciate by the pepils, and will, n doubt,
be benefi hilly remembered by them
