SCHOOL TREAT.—On Monday the 9th inst the children of the National Infant and New Hedges Schools, to the number of betwesn five and six hundred, were treated to their annual school feast. In the afternoon they as- sembled at the National School, where, under the excel- lent management of Mr R. Mathias and the other mas- ters and teachers they were marshalled in procession. The long line of children was studded with banners of the most chaste design, containing appropriate mottoes; the flags and banners, were most lavish in numbers and tasteful in ornament evidently the work in many cases of ladies having natural and educated talents for amateur decoration. The procession was headed by the town band1 as it wended its way to the parish church where a full choral service was held, the Rev — Cleuther intoning the prayers, the responses from Tallis being made by the children, led by the voluntary choirs of the parish church and St Mary's Chapel. A short appropriate sermon or acjdresa having been given by the rector the Rev G. Huntingdon, the children re- formed and matched to the rectory where the prepara- tions had been made for the feast with generous profusion. The usual prizes were awarded at the conclusion of tea, after which, amusements of all kinds were entered into with the greatest spirit, and when the children teachers separated, it was with the feeling that the pre" sent was about the most enjoyable of all the school feasts they had taken part in.
