New Year at Franklin.

On New Years eve the Franklin Sunday school
of the Union church, Rev. II. T. Shepard, pastor,
was entertained pleasantly with a concert, tree
and turkey supper. The programme NJ the
concert consisted OF Rotations, dialogues and
songs by the children and teachers. The house
was filed to overfowing, and at the close of the
concert, inexpensive but appropriate presents of
candy and nuts were distributed to all the
children present, numbering about 100. The
pastor had pledged $50 TO insure the sue
cess OF the occasion, but the interest of the peo
pie increased and the actual cash contributions
were SIS from one OF the officers of the society
in kind response to h letter from the pastor: $35
from the people and s35 from the pastor
Prominent individuals present and interested
from the school and the church were: Mrs.
Stanton, superintendent of the Sunday-school;
Mrs. Lathe, Mrs. Hood, Miss Harris, Mr.. Stan
ton, Mr.. William Richards, Mr.. Hunden;
from the company: Mrs. Superintendent
Williams, Mr.. Bush and Dr. Smith. In addition

ing for assistance: Mrs. Booth, Mrs Steele,
Mrs. Holder and Mrs White, whose children
provided specially attractive part of the enter
tsinment in recitation and song.
Special acknowledgment is due the company
for assistance and the colored brethren for their
invariabs generosity and gentlemanliness in
dividing the use of the buildings for this and
all other occasions. The audience left the house
in the best of moods, feeling that long step
had been taken toward the old-time peace and
harmony which only suicidal fool shness could
mar. The highest honor and the highest praise
is due to the children, who should receive full
