A happy hour was spent by the

In tho Sunday school room of the

and old, assembled and apparently
forgot their ago and youth alike and
blended In ono "happy hour" of mer
rlment and rejoicing. The occasion
was planned by the social committee
of the church and was so pleasantly
passed that all went away delighted,
Innocent games were played, happy
songs were sung and light, delicious
refreshments were served. The com

like occasions through , the passing
months.
