Sunday-school Soiree.—On Friday evening' the annual soiree in connection with the Huntly Sunday-school was held in Ralph's hall. At 6 o'clock the scholars, together with their parents and friends, took their places round the wellfilled tables and proceeded to discuss the good things provided. After all had been satisfied the tables were cleared away and the following programme well rendered, the chair being occupied by Mr H. Nicholson :—Vocal duet, Misses Johnson and L. Troughear ; song, Miss M. Troughear ; recitation, Miss Violet Johnson ; song, Rev. A. M. Bradbury ; address, Dr. Hosking ; piano solo, Master Joe Harris; vocal duet, Misses Tattley ; recitation, Mrs Rees ; song, Mr E. \V. Tattley ; song, Misses Myra Oleeson, Violet Johnson, Jessie and Nellie Barclay : piano solo, Miss E. Tattley ; recitation, Mrs Rees. The accompanists wore Master Joe Harris, Misses Tattley, Housley and Gleeson. At the conclusion of the meeting the Rev. Dr. Hoiking presented the certificates gained o.t the last Sunday school exhibition by Christina Shaw, Bertha Housley, Nellie Gleeson, Sarah Hall, Ethel Wilson, M ugaret Ruston, and the late Jessio Bailey. If the large attendance on Friday night be. any criterion, the Huntly people evidently appreciate the good work done by the Sunday-school teachers. The Rev. Mr Mitchell, of Hamilton, was expected, prevented from comiug by an attack of influenza.—(Own Correspondent).
