Presbyterian Sunday School Treat.

I ■ur reporter being unable to attend ' . 1 Pro-? ivrorina Sunday School Treat, '.lt ' Breckels, M.v-Fyttil, last Fri--f ve were ..promised particulars of ' A ■; oceedji/irs, bat as they have not f.jHl . irwarded, nor are they obtain ' , I I ave to rely upon another source. ■V e arn that the Treat was even more isful than on any previous occasion, it tbe possible, and that large as has t’ Attendance always been, when the weather has proved favorable, it was fXr larger last Friday than formerly ; this we gather from all sides. Ihe day was fine and bright, and the outing was right heartily enjoyed. Three qatsggons crowded with “ Youthful ” left the Manse at 10 a.m,, W. Gerrand being in the lead ; I without seeing him in that position the ! ihajority of the children of this place I would consider there was something wanting in the Presbyterian Sunday Schoo! Treat. The drive up was much enjoyed, and on arrival at the ground the children found everything prepared for their further delectation. To them, as indeed to all present, it was pleasure without alloy. They were regaled with the best fruits of the various homes, in the shape of cakes and pastry, for which the ladies of the Presbyterian congrepation here have made a name for themselves, and the children were truly made the guests of the hour, for they ■ifere tended to like princes and princesses, nothing being considered too £ood for them. Of course where such excellent creature comforts abounded the adults present were not forgotten. The children were twice invited to partake of the good things from, what to many of them appeared, ‘ the rich man’s table.’ Various games were carried on to the delight of the children, and when the order for the return to town was given they all felt that they had a splendid day’s fun. Cheers were given for the Rev Mr McAra, ihe Sunday School Teachers, the proprietor of the grounds, the owners and drivers of the waggons, and the Ladies,” with “ one cheer more ” tha latter.
