This was fol lowed by an item exercise giving the work of the schools among the moun taineers of the South. After singing, “ School Life in Persia” was read by Mrs. C. E. Jones. A paper on Mission Work in Syria was given. The fact that the “ Star in the East,” followed by the wise men, made its appearance in Persia, and that Christianity had its birth on that first Christmas night in the land of Syria, makes these subjects appropriate and interesting at this season of the year. A very interesting and instructive study on Immigration was given by Mrs. J. M. Baxter. The president reported that a box of school supplies and clothing had been sent to a school for Freedmen at Mays- ville, S. C. The box was valued at about $35.
