The Christmas Trees.

! The entertainments given By the Meth
odist and Congregational Churches for
the benefit of their Sunday School chill
dren, one Christmas eve. the other Christ
mas night: were decided successes, and
alike enjoyable by those Of mature age as
by the more young. The churches were
both handsomely trimmed and adorned
with eyergreens, exhibiting the good
taste of the designers, and showing that
| no labor had been spared On the part of
the friends Of either school TO make the
surroundings az delightful for the chill
! dI en- as possible.
Notwithstanding Christmas eve was
very unpleasant, the Methodist church
was crowded and i'll the enjoyment of
the evening ali seemed to forget the in
clemency that prevailed without. The
| first part OF the entertainment consisted
of singing, speaking, and reciting pieces
appropriate to the occasion, all of which
was rendered in a very pleasing manner
| to the delight of those present. At the
| close Of this part Of the programme that
mythical parsonage, the delight of all
children, -''Sailta Claus,"-put in his ap-
pearance, and his style of dress and jolly
department., furnished vast amount of
amusement for the children. He seemed
to he in mis- happiest mood, and anxious
that the children should have happy
time. After his exit the gifts, which were
numerous, were distributed among the
large and expectant audience.
Christmas night was rather more favor
able as far as the weather was concerned,
for the Congregational Church enter
tainment, and the church was filled at an
early hour. with an eager and expectant
audience. The first part of the evening
was pleasantly enjoyed By those present,
in listening to the singing by The school
and those connected with it, Of short
programme Of music selected for the en-
tertainment and suited TO the event cele-
brated. Thesinging of the young girls was
particularly pleasing and reflected much
credit OH Mrs. T.. A. Perrin for their
training. After the musical part of the
exercises was completed, tine presents
on the beautifully loaded tree were dis
tributed. Some Of the recipients We're
somewhat surprised with the character
of their gifts, and by their manner of re-
ceiving them, created considerable mer-
riment among the audience. All present
seemed to be happy and to enjoy the oc-
casiOfi. - =, .t--~-.s :. =.

Tile Camp Meeting.


The assurance that navigation will be
opened up through our inland lakes, will
go long way towards securing the loca-
ton of the camp meeting upon Burt and
Mullett lakes. The committee. favOrably
impressed from the first with the loca-
ton, will now look upon it az
a most. desirable one and in our opinion
very little extra influence will be requir-
ed to secure the vote of the locating COM
mittee for this place. 1t is not necessary
for us to dwell upon the advantages Of
having the location the point proposed.
as they have already been fully set forth.
but we earnestly ask, every person inter-
ested in this place not to fail to do all
in their power to bring about this result.

saxteen Thousand Acres Appropriated 70
the Completion Of the Work.

The success of the project for improv-
ing the navigation of our inland lakes
and rivers is assured. The survey of
Engineer Simpson, together with the
maps and plans and specifications for the
work were presented to the Board of
Control, at their meeting in Lansing last
Wednesday, by the Local Commissioner
The Importance of the project was
again represented to the Board by Messrs.
VIM. Macarthur, John Mckay. and M.
Chandler. E
The total estimate for the cost of the
work was about $1,000 For the COM
pletion of the Improvement the Board
was asked to appropriate thirty sections
of land. After council their decision
was announced. They decided that
twenty-five sections was perhaps all the
state ought to pay towards the improve
ment. The estimate for engineering, the
Board thought ought to be paid by the
counties, the same as the preliminary sur
vey, small matter which the counties
benefited no doubt viii be willing to as
sumo.
Although the appropriation is not quite
what we would liked to have had 1t, tits
a very liberal one, the largest We believe
that has ever been made for any similar
work. Should there be deficit it must
and doubtless will be made ~ by our
citizens. The Local Commissioner will
advertise for proposals at once and as
soon as satisfactory proposals are made
will contract for the completion of the
work. 1t is hoped to have it in condition
for the passage of boats by the first of
next July

EVENING NEWS.
DETROIT. MICHIGAN. =.

r
TIME EVENING NEWS. now In It's third year,
L is the acknowledged great newspaper success
of the decade. Established Just on the eve of the
financial panic of 1878, in city containing four
other daily newspapers, and papers too among the
ablest in the west it has in this short PERIOD and
under these adverse circumstances, by sheer force OF
energy, snap ana spirit, won for itself circulation
far exceeding that of all its Detroit contemporaries
combined, an immense popularity throughout the
state. and sound financial standing such any pa
per three times its age might envy.
1t has an actual Observation-Disclosures 1S75-of
over 16 500 copies. OF these about 1000 are taken
in the interior towns and villages of Michigan. as
far weat as Niles and north to Ludington and Ira
verse City, Wherever it is once taken il rarely loses
its fOothOld.
The EVENING NEWS is independent in politics,
fighting co-raption, monopoly and riog intrigues
wherever they may become apparent, no matter VIII }
is hit.
Few papers in the country present all the news of
the day in a more raey and readable shape, every
thing dull prosy and tedious being rigidly excluded
from its columns. Trivial matters are condensed
into the smallest compass, while really important
events all the attention that the largest and
costliest sheets could give them. Thus, the EVEN
ING NEWS was the only Michigan newspaper to send
a member # its own staff to Philadelphia to report
the progress of the Centennial, and ii will be the
only Detroit paper'tp maintain in Washington the
coming winter an exclusive correspondent detailed
from its own staff.
No Detroit paper gives more faithful attention to
market reports, although less volumnou than in the
larger journals. Improvements in this and all other
departments will be introduced as their utility may
become apparent.
In view of the Centennial celebration. the Presi-
dental election, and the financial and other great
quest ons which will agitate the country, the year
1876 will be one Of peculiar interest and one in
which the intelligent citizen should take daily
ewspaper if ever.
The terms of TIE EVENING News are only sea-
year, so cents per month, postage included, max
ing IT the cheapest daily paper of its aize in the
west. Address,
