The Sunday School entertainment of
Monday evening was one of the most
successful ever held in Varna, Owing
to the rain m the evening some were
detained from attending but the hall
was nicely filled. The children ot the
S. S. gave nearly all the program and
rendered it iu a style pleasing to all.
The songs by Pearl and Russel And-
rews and Annie May Robinson highly
delighted the audience. The fancy
and dag drill and doll drills were tue
hits of the evening. Bey. Mr. Andrews
tilled the chair in his usual efficient
style. The entertainment was closed
by singing "God Save the Queen" ancl.
everybody went to their homes well
pleased with the evening's entertain -
meet.
The Sunday service was conducted
by the Rev. Andrews of Fullartot who
preached in the morning to the child*
ren from the text, Songs of Solomote
2 chapter, 15 verse, "Take y e the foxes,
the little foxes thatspoil the vines, for
our vines have tender grapes." The
address was very much appreciated by
the congregation: In the evening the
sermon was to the parents and the
church was filled to the doors, some
having to go away because or the' lack
of accoraodation. The collectioes of
the day were in the interest of the Sun-
day School. .
