A short musical programme was then proceeded with, several songs by the children being loudly anpliuded. In consequence of the generosity of the residents of the district a number of very fine prizes were distributed to the scholars for general excellence and attendance. A very enjoyable hour was then spent in games, into which all nrosent seemed to enter as heartily as they did.-into'the refreshments that were afterwards handed- round.
