assured that you can do no good thing

foe.
The Sunday-school scholars had a
merry time on the evening of the 24ti

exercises were opened with singing,
aud prayer by the Superintendent, Rev

appropriate address and was follow
ed by the scholars with recitations,

santa Clause came into the church
through a high window and came
down and distributed the Iuxuries t.,
the children, that seemed to be rejoic-
ing. They were dismissed by Rev.
