Layston Church Sunday School
Annual Prize-giving
The annual prize-giving to the Layston Church Sunday School scholars took place at the George Hotel on Friday evening last.
There was a crowded audience, which consisted of scholars, parents and friends. The Vicar, the Rev. A. Howard presided, and handed the prize books to the boys and girls. He also referred to the good work of the teachers.
After this, Mr B.E. Thody gave a lantern lecture which was much enjoyed by all. The subjects were - A visit to the Zoo, Fairy tales, British wild birds and their nest, and views of Winchester. Several local slides, lent the Rev A. Howard and Mr Thody, were very interesting.
At the close, the Vicar proposed a vote of thanks to the lecturer and also to Mrs Alexander Dixon who was present and gave each child an orange.
The very happy evening concluded with the National Anthem.
