but not too late for tree for they are always in
order. The entertainment preceding the dis

and much credit is due to Miss Mile Faulkner,
their able and efficient superintendent, whose
untiring efforts made it grand and interesting
event to the large and appreciatiye audience
that was present. 1t was a joyous event for the
children and all were greeted by hearty well
come. Every one expected happy time and
none were disappointed. After prayer had been
offered by the pastor Rev. Pierce, of Seattle the
choir rendered an anthem. Following this Mr.
Alonzo Hamblet, of Seattle offered a short and
very interesting address to the children-in
substance telling them of Christmas and its
origin and observance, and how it's coming was
always greeted by a hearty welcome from all
classes and great preparations were always made
for its observance. Charity was more preva-
lent at this season of the year than any other,
the poor and needy usually being remembered
and allowed to partake and enjoy the blessings
OF the affiueut Programmes.
