Show SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION. The usual monthly Sunday School Union was held in the basement of the Tabernacle on Sunday evening last, when a programme [program] of exercises was rendered by children and adults. One or two of the pieces given were hardly suitable for the occasion, and Superintendent O.C. Ormsby expressed his regret that they had been permitted. He also expressed his disapprobation of the applause that was given. It was entirely unsuited? for the time and place. President Wm. B. Preston also addressed the assembly, strongly discountenancing a portion of the evening's proceedings and programme [program] and expressing the desire that never again, on a Sabbath evening in the House of the Lord, would such unseemly conduct on the part of young people, take place. He advised that hereafter? the Sunday School Union meet in the forenoon of the Sabbath instead of in the evening. His advice was adopted and the Union will hereafter meet at 10? a.m. on the first sunday in the month. |
