McCook weekly tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 188?-1886, 1883-12-27

There is no day that is so universally
celebrated by all Christendom as Christ
mas {; and very properly SO, as there is
no day so pregnant with hallowed asso-
Citations, SO fraught with good to all
men, as the one upon which we COM
memorate the advent of the Redeemer
of the world. Rightly do all people,
the Christian as we'll as the moralist,
make this the day of unrestrained joy
and rejoicing. Christmas day was very
generally observed in McCook, and all
the places of business being closed had
a rather Sabbath-day-like aspect, with
but an occasional fire cracker explosion
to break the silence. A number of per-
sons entertained their friends, and the
less fortunate consoled themselves with
a chunk of sweitzer and glass of beer
Many handsome presents were given
and received, and on the whole the day
was one filled with many pleasant
membranes.

The EPISCOPAL SOCIAL.

A brilliant party turned out on Fri
day evening to the Social held by the
Episcopal ladies in the Dining Hall.
The Band with their usual generosity
met at the Hall and played number
of selections on the porch before the
same, and afterwards grand march in
the Dining Room. The march finally
merged into a waltz. The music was
highly appreciated by all present, being
well executed throughout, except that
the waltz was too slow. The dancing
was continued until about "a clock,
when refreshments were served. It
seems to be presumptious to say any
thing on this score, for what town in
the valley or state can excel our ladies
in this line And on this occasion
they rather excelled themselves, and
their edibles were devoured with great
gusto. After the remains of the feast
had been cleared away the dancing was
continued until the "wee small hours Of
the morn, when the assembly retired
to their homes.
P.S.-One suggestion which we be-
lieve will add to the enjoyment Of all
on such occasions, at least to the ma
jor portion: Eschew displaying your
forensic inclinations during the dance,
and Debate as to whether the caller was
right or wrong the following morning.

SUNDAY SCHOOL entertainment.

The Congregational Church was lit
orally packed, Christmas eve, during
the exercises of the children of the
Union Sunday School. The church had
been very tastefully decorated with
proper and BETTING banners, notices,
strings of pop corn, and other pleasing
devices, together with the large house
filled with presents, and presented
withal bright, holiday-like appearance.
The exercises were opened by song and
prayer. After which Selma Noren de-

evening was the search for St. Nick,

The skating rink was the all absorb
ing attraction on Christmas day, and
enabled many poor unfortunate to
vile hours that would otherwise have
been burden to him. The floor was
filed from early morn till night with
crowd of merry skaters, having lots of
fun, sometimes at the expense of others,
but then enjoying it all the more. Just
a VOID to those who skate so recklessly.
The room is small and some people
don't care to risk their limbs while such
skating is INDUCED in. Out Of respect
and consideration for the many ladies
who are making complaint, these par
ties should moderate, and try the role
of gentlemen while.
