School at the Town Hall. on Christmas Eve +, |
was one of the most pleasing events of the kind |
that it has ever been our pleasure 10 witness |

sidering the age and experience of the partici- |
pants. while the singing was excellent Mrs.
Jennie Barber presided at the organ. and also |
sang with her oid-time sweetness, thereby rem
dering valuable aid to the entertainment. AL

sisted of great variety of articles. from an
elegant gold watch to ajumping jack. All, and
