Christmas Festival at Eliot.

Eliot Methodist Episcopal church and
parish had their Christmas festival and tree,
Dec. 25. The evening was beautiful and a
fine audience present. The service opened
at o'clock by fine voluntary on the organ
by Miss Edith Raft of Eliot. The invoca-
tion was by Rev. John Gibson. The ad-
dresses, speaking by the children, music,
and singing of anthems, duets, were most
excellent, appropriate and heartily ap-
plauded. The church was beautifully deco
rated and lighted. Two evergreen trees were
loaded with rich and beautiful presents and
the children were bountifully remembered
by Santa Claus, while the parents, friends,
pastor and family were not in the least for
gotten. The pastors wife had an envelope
with greenbacks enclosed and other nice
gifts, and the pastor had pretty little box
in which was deposited shining silver and
beautiful gold, and other useful fruit
dropped into his lap from the bountifully
laden trees for which they desire to ex-
press thanks to friends of the parish
Everything passed of very pleasantly, hearts
were made happy and the fine audience sang
heartily the doxology. The pastor gave the
benediction and all went home realizing the
true joy of merry Christmas eve. e
