A Pleasant Event.

a ftthbanb EVENT.
Christmas-tide brings with it good
cheer. 1t is an occasion when all worthy
friends can be kindly remembered, either
by word or token. Amid all the turmoil
and strife between employer and en-
ployes, it is all the more gratifying to
find an instance Of exception to this rule.
Such an occasion was the presentation by
the employees of the Union Paper Mills of
New Hope, Pa, to their Superintendent
Mr.. Geo L. Hodge, of this city, OF an
elegantly mounted gold headed cane, on
the afternoon of the day preceding Christ
mas.
Mr.. Hodge was called from the office,
apparently by something that required
immediate attention, when to his utter
surprise and amazement he was at once
surrounded by all the employees. Mr..
Hodge was somewhat amazed at this sud-
den gathering of his men, but his mind
was soon relieved of whatever alarming
premonition of danger 1t may have pos
sessed, when their leader, Mr.. Northrup,
stepped forward and in neat little speech
presented to him their token OF goodwill
10 the form of a cane. To say that he
was sur )rised nay completely knocked
out, is putting it mildly.
MI. Hodge, who is not at any time
much of a speech-maker, was so dazed
by the occasion that he could only feebly
utter 'sThank you" But he has by this
time recovered his usual equilibrium, and
wishes through the columns If our jour
nal to return thanks to tis employees for
their manifestation of goodwill to him.
The cane is not only priced by him on ac-
count of its intrinsic value, but coming as
it did it, will always be reminder of that
confidence and goodwill, which should
always exist between employer and en-
ployee, and when il does so exist, is
source Of mutual henrfit and astaar,

but exercised wonderful nerve. AS

IMpN - And wisdom to
guide him rightly for many a day he'd
sought.
And there was not a single volume on the
shelves above or below
That could throw any light on the problem
that puzzled and vexed him so.
For the harvest season was over, and Christ
mas was close at hand,
And the glow OF the rising splendor already IL
And there on the desk before him, in orderly
~neatness. lay
The sermon he meant to deliver to his people
on Christmas day.
hot this that disturbed him, nor was
he a moment vexed
BY any doubt or delusion in regard TO his
chosen text;
For he preached but a simple gospel in Ian
'w''a~a guage as terse and plain
As the smooth. round pebbles that David took
when the mighty giant was slain.
The pastor thought OF his little flock, the chill
dren great and small,
And great was the loving kindness with which
And YET wave Of trouble ran over his heart,
They Thought much less of Jesus Christ than
they did OF Santa Claus.
For one and another Misrepresentation words
had an oagor ring, --
"what shan l get on Christmasf What VIII
Santa Claus bringF'
And as everywhere and ever the thirst for
gain increased
The charm Of a kingly presence was missed
from the royal feast.
The pastor sat I'm his study, when his good
wife opened the door,
An together they held communion and talked
the trouble DER;
And she, being quick Of fancy, In q moment or
two had planned
A better way for keeping the day that wasnow
so close at hand.
The pastor gave the notice from the pulpit,
next Sabbath morn,
And 10 brain aud heart, like a swift winged
dart, was the startling message borne,
For he spoke IN words OF FIRE the truth they
must all believe: A
.srhe Master has said: II is far more blessed
to give than TO receiver
And II ut the Christmas season you'd be richly
and truly best
Bring hither your votive onering.-and let 1t
be OF your best
And give to the poor around you with generous
heart and hand,
That peace and goodwill 10 men may MI tae
length and breadth OF the land"
Twas carly in bleak December the barrels
came rolling in,
The farmers sending their choicest from we'll

There were apples and pears In plenty, and
pumpkins, yellow as gold,
And nuts and potatoes, together enough for a

And bags on bags OF nour anu OF cohee' aho

And strings of onions and peppers, oh twas q
goodly sight TO see.
And the work Of nimble fingers 10 such an
amount was there, ..
1t seemed as II the collection outrtvaled the
County Fair.
There were dolls Of assorted sizes. and some
that had been much used.
For the little folks had nought else TO give ant
not q gift was refused;
For the pastor would teach the lesson 70 chill

That the gift that secures a blessing must b
