On Christmas Eve, festivals were
held in number of churches in town
THE N. e. CHURCH
Was crowded almost to suffocation, by
as pleased a crowd of people as was
ever seen. A mammoth Christmas
tree heavily loaded with gifts for the
little ..ones, presented a fine appear
ance, while festoons of evergreens
and handsome pictures, tastefully ar
ranged, added much to the genera
effect. Each member of the Sabbath
school received gift of greater OF
less value; classes made presentations
to teachers, teachers to superintend
ens everybody to librarian; short
speeches-some good, some. .indiffer
ent, and some decidedly luticrous-
were made in presentation and ac
acknowledgement; everybody was hap,
py and kept getting more so until the
room seemed perfect Babel. Ther
came the refreshments, making "con
fusion worse confounded."
Very nearly fac simile of the
above was had at the
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,
Except in point of order. Having
more room, matters were kept in bet
ter shape. In the audience room
was a beautiful Christmas tree, as
neatly gotten up as it possibly could
be, while the lecture room was used
for q refreshment room, and genera
amusements. Here they had good
imitation of
SANTA CLAUS.
Who, though not quite as round ant
pl ump as the original is said to b'
acted his part with very good grace
A good time was also enjoyed by
the "children of all sizes" at the
German Lutheran Church.
The town presented a very dreary
appearance, trade langulshed-ex-
cept in the line of toys and confec'
tions-the occasional rumble of
heavy wagon sounded dismal indeed
after the splendid sleighing OF last
week. We look hopefully forward
to "Happy New Year" with wealth
er to correspond with the season.
