The Christmas exercises of the
Bethesda Sunday school were held in
the church, corner OF East Ninth street
and Central avenue, Friday evening. A
large tree, very prettily decorated, was !
the cynosure OF all cyes, and the literary
exercises though short, were all too long
for the eager children who awaited the |
of the good things piled |
under and around the tree. The recita-
tions and the songs were rendered in a |
very creditable manner; but the num-
Der which captured the audience was a
comic round song, sung by four gentle
men. They were compelled to respond |
to an encore. Every member of the |
