At half past one the teacher, Mr. Wilbert Passmore, celled the audience to order, and in a neat speech called Rev. J. J. Hestia to the chair. A program, con- sisting of recitations, songs, dialogues and choruses, wee rendered most effi- ciently by the children, who, without any exception, performed their part in a manner whish ie seldom equalled on an occasion of this kind and reflected great credit, not only to themselves, but also showed the ability and tact possess- ed by their teacher, who had given each chilli that part to perform, best suited to develop the natural talents possessed by them. At the close of the children's part of the program the teacher was called to the platform and presented with a chain and locket accompanied by an address. Mr. Passmore wart entirely taken by surprise, but in a few well oitoeen words returned thanks, assuring all that he would treasure the gift very dearly, in loving remembrance of the pleasant associations which had been hie to share in the action and made touching references to the rtes which bound teacher and pupils to- gether, Rev, A. H. Brown, of Bel. grave, in a few congratulatory but sp. propriate words, referred to the basun• fol decorations.
