THE HOPEWELL CELEBRATION
To The Newark Journal:
On Sunday, Juno 24, six juve
nile spirits gallantly arrayed start
ed on their much anticipated trip
to Hopewell to attend the Sunday
School celebration, the members
of the party being Misses \\ iima
Lane, Nellie and Unie Churchill
and Messrs. Daniel Baker, Linley
Lane and Urban Haddock.
Upon our arrival we found the!
house and campus thronged with
people eager to hear every word
that was said. We happened to
be among the last getting there,
therefore to obtain a seat was al
most impossible. A short talk
was made by Rev. Thompson, the
pastor, which was very interesting
and instructive, after which the
choir rendered some choice music.
Then came some excellent recita
tions 1>.\ the little boys and girls.
The sentiment expressed in these
carefully selected speeches, ought
to forever suppress immorality.
May God bless the boys and girls
who participated in that exercise.
About 12 o’clock dinner was
spread on the ground and every
body cordially invited to partake
of the sumptuous least that hart
been prepared by the mothers and
daughters of Hopewell commun
ity. The dinner would have made
the promt King Alfonso smile.
There was more dinner on the
ground than could have been con
sumed by five times the number
of people present. The evening
exercises commenced about l:dO
o’clock, and was participated in
chiefly by the larger boys and
girls. The day’s exercises ended
with closing remarks by the pas
tor. We wish to congratulate the
good people of Hopewell. May
God speed the day when all man
kind realizes the good there is to
be had in Sunday Schools. Our
proud nation today owes its suc
cess and prestige among the pow
■ cr3 of the earth as much to the
wonderful influence of the Sunday
School as any thing else. Mothers
.see that your boy attends and
takes an interest in Sunday school
while he is young and you will
never have cause to reap bitter
tears of regret over the wild ca
reer of your son when he is older,
for in the Sunday schools are
sown the seeds of love and integ
ity. I had better desist be force
this goes in into an essay.
’t ours for the Sunday School.
