LIN. Schools Annual Prize Givings, The annual prize-giving at the China Inland Mission Schools is an event always much looked forward to by many who are not scholars in the school. 'The musical entertainments are enjoyed by the friends who are invited, to very high degree, and this, as well as other exhibitions of the scholars' proficiency in art, are always gratifying to the many who have learned to appreciate the thorough work accomplished year'by year in the schools.
The ball was set rolling this year by the prize-giving at the preparatory sctiool which took. place on Friday afternoon last. The usual entertainment, however, in this case was postponed on account (it said) of the unpreparedness of the little ones, who need a great deal more Arilling for this annual function. n the teaching staff have been able to afford.
