On the following Thursday, Octobor Bth, a popular gift sale will be held when needlework, provisions, loliies, etc.. etc., will be displayed for sale in the schoolroom. In the evening the children will render .action 6ongs, and glees will be given by the choir. Afternoon tea and supper will be provided^ and there will be numerous side-shows.
