In the evening the Olympia wascrowded hy our townspeople, who as-M'luhled to extend a welcome to theirvisitors. I'ariors A and !!. were dense-ly packed hy a surging mass of light-hearted men and women and the humof animated conversation continuedtilllong after the time fixed for themore forma! part of the demonstration.It was nine o'clock he fore I'rof. 11 awes,as master of ceremonies, called thehosts and guests down Irom theirllight amid the clouds to the moreformal proprieties of the hour.
The Euterpe Musical Cluh rendereda beau! iftil chorus entitled " Sweet,"which expressed its charming melodyso well that the large assemblage werewihl for a repetition but the ladiesgracefully declined.
An address of welcome was then an-nounced hy Acting Mayor Murphy,which was as follows:" Lamps and Centi-emex oi the State
TEAC 11Kits' Assiii -iatioN :
"It is with much ditlidenee that Iundertake a task which chance has as-signed to me, although 1 can truly saythat I appreciate tiie honor of wel-coming to the Capital City representa-tive men and women whose life mis-sion is the noble work of shaping theindividualityof American citizenship,and thereby advancing the destiny ofa nation whose government is basedsolely upon the rock ol popular intelli-gence.
" High indeed is your mission andresponsible and great the duties it in-volves. Conscientious performance ofthe task of developing the germ ofthought and incentive for right orwrong, of unfolding one hy one thosetiny petals of the tlower of individu-ality, is indeed a Hod-given privilege,and should he approached with rever-ential solicitude. If it he indeed truethat the hand which rocks the cradlerules the world, it must be admittedwith equal candor that the arm which(figuratively speaking, in this advancedage) wields the ferule should be ac-corded an equal honor in perfectingthe noble work begun hy the goodmother. In fact, the two functionsare so closely allied that they are in-separable. They work harmoniouslyand perfectly together. The first dutyof the parent, is to secure health ofbody and awaken the infant brain toits first impressions of what is rightand what is wrong; to instill the rudi-mcntal ideas of personal incentive,which later on, develop into thosemoral principles that constitute truemanhood. Here, however, their laborsgenerally end, and the duty of unfold-ing the elements of character, passeson to our teachers in the commonschools. They take the active entity,as the nurseryman classifies his stocks,upon which to engraft the scions thatproduce certain well-defined results;in this instance, to secure probity ofcharacter as well as to determine thespecial mission of the coming man.If the stock is wanting in vitality orthe twig is bent, the result is neces-sarily imperfect; hut when all the con-ditions are perfect and the handiworkof the cherishing parent passes into thekeeping of the conscientious teacher,the object will be attained in produc-ing a symmetrical tree abounding ingood fruit.
" Ladies and gentlemen : I will notattempt to elaborate a theme of thesegigantic proportions. To advance sucha grand object should he the ambitionof all. You arc with lis at an auspic-ious moment, a time when our law-makers tire assembling to formulatelaws for the popular weal. You willbe placed in touch with them for sug-gestions of such aids as statutory en-actment may allord. Your presencecannot be but of potental influence forsecuring consideration of the needs forpromoting popular education. I knowthat 1 express the sentiment of ourwhole community when 1 say that inthis work, if we can be of s. rvice toyou, all will gladly hill into line inunited endeavor to place the cause ofeducation in the front rank of ad-vanced civilization.
" While you are with us, we wish youto feel that you are indeed welcomeguests. Your coming has heen thesubject of much comment by our peo-ple, and I assure you that it is with no
ordinary feeling of cordiality our
hearts go out to those engaged in sucha noble, such a glorious, such a patri-otic work as the making of good citi-zenship for a country which has sosignally demonstrated that it is in thelead of the great nations of the earth."
Superintendent George K. St. John,of North Yakima, on behalf of theassociation responded to the address
lof welcome, lie said that the guestsI could see in the evidences of prcpara-
j tion that their coming had been antic-ipated and in the many courtesies al-
! readt extended that the hearts of our
jpeople truly felt the cordiality ex-pressed in the words of welcome, andcoming from the residents of a citymore talked about than any other onthe globe, it could not be considerediu any other light than an exaltedcompliment. The speaker paid aglowing tribute to the heroes of thewar and the magnificent results so ex-peditiously achieved bv our forces onland and sea, incidental to an eulogyof Olvinpia's namesake which hasbeen so prominently in view as thecentral figure of an engagement whichset the course for a glorious campaign.

Mrs. I'. C. Koford's singing, whichfollowed, elicited, as it always does,unbounded applause.

The association met Wednestlavmorning in Unity Amlitorinm. l'resi-ilent Hinglnim presided, and the ses-sion was opened by nmsie.

CHRISTMAS AT ST. JOHN'SA Very Novel and Creditable Entertainment
for the Children.It wus a delightfully planned enter-
tainment given for the children of St.John's church, Saturday evening. Itdeparted far enough from the usualChristmas " tree" observance to bequite novel as well as creditable inother respects. Santa Clans wasrepresented by Mr. Hoke, and it issurprising what a benevolent oldgentleman he makes when " dressedup." The programme was briefly,short exercises in the church, con-sisting of an add ress by the rector and
musical numbers by the choir andchildren. Then an adjournment washad to the basement, where musicand recitations beguiled away anotherhour, while a mysteriously drawn cur-tain shut otf the culminating climaxfor which all the young hearts wereso anxiously beating.
The recitations were by classes. Thelirst of these, an infant class, scored asuccess by several well-rendered nurs-ery gems among which was an apos-trophe to her doll by little LeonoraKicliardson. When we say it was"cute," we exhaust the femininesuperlative of excellence.
The gem of the evening, however,was a recitation of" The Three Kings,"by Miss Minnie Veager. It was not asurprise, however, to her friends. Theproficiency attained by this Miss offifteen is indeed remarkable. Satur-day night she held her auditors spell-bound by the masterly rendition ofthat beautiful poem of the great Long-fellow. Her enunciation, modulationand gesticulation were simply perfect,and it is difficult to conceive how anyprofessional could have given betterexpression to the poet's feelings thanthis young lady, so generously eudowedby nature with the primary qualifica-tions for oratorical power. It is by nomeans improbable that she may makea name in the lecture or dramatic field.
The distribution of the presents wasin tub; in a novel manner. Old Santaenters and finds a cheerful hearth-stone and blazing fireplace. It isscarcely necessary to note that became in by a door for other reasonsthan the blazing flame. Hanging onthe niantleptece were stockings of var-ious sizes and lengths, presumably be-longing to the teachers of the severalclasses, tagged with the name of theowner and the number of classmatesto be provided with presents. Ampleas some of these recepticles were, oldSanta after reading each name, shookhis head with a sigh as he pronouncedeach too small for his bounty and sub-stituted well-tilledbaskets of toys andkeepsakes for his young friends.While busily engaged in arrangingthe baskets, lie is disturbed by theappearance of two children in " night-ies," who have been awakened by bispresence and he beats a hasty retreatamid the enthusiastic laughter of avery palpably sympathetic audience.
