The Georgia Enterprise May 19, 1892
     Children’s Day was appropriately observed by the Methodist Sunday Schools 
in Covington and Midway. Superintendent S. J. KELLY, of Midway School, arranged 
the services at the Chapel for Sunday afternoon. A very interesting program was 
presented consisting of songs, recitations, addresses, collection, etc. 
Superintendent J. G. LESTER conducted the service, Sunday night, for the 
Covington School. The song by the smallest children, in the largest class in 
the Sabbath School, was just as sweet as it well could be. “Children’s Day,” by 
five little girls, was very fine, as was also the recitation of Miss Vernie 
WOODRUFF. Prof. P. E. DAVANT gave an earnest, eloquent and encouraging talk of 
five minutes duration on Sunday Schools. Miss Daisie STEWART recited a charming 
little piece on “God will give you more.” Then came the collection, which was 
not responded to as liberally as it should have been. Superintendent LESTER 
gave an interesting talk, and after a song come the benediction.
