COHUNA CONGREGATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL .
[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
The anniversary of the above school was held on Sunday last, when two services were conducted by the Rev. T. H. James, pastor of the church. In the afternoon a children's service was held, addresses being given by the Rev. T. F. James, Messrs. J. McDonald. (superintendent of the school), F. Salter, and J. Price. Singing and recitations were contributed by the children in a manner that reflected great credit on Messrs. J. McDonald and E. G. Thrumb, who conducted them.
