St. Mark’s Sunday School.

SOCIAL AND PRIZE DISTRIBUTION

A Most enjoyable children’s social was held in the Public Hall on Wednesday evening, the occasion being the annual distribution of prizes to the scholars of St. Mark’s Sunday School. There was a very large attendance of children, and it was specially pleasing to the teachers to note the attendance l of so many parents on the occasion. The prizes were distributed by the Rev. P. Cleary, after which the children indulged in various games. A bun- eating com* petition created a great amount of laughter. The teachers, kindly assisted by several friends, were untiring in their attention to the children. After supper the National Anthem was sung, thus ended one of the most enjoyable outings spent by the children, it is possible to conceive. The teachers wish to acknowledge the very liberal response made by the parents in providing for the supper.
