THE CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT.
 The exercises Christmas night passed off very pleasantly, and the church look ed very pretty in it's dress of greens. Little George Seaton gave a Christmas greeting, and small Miss Edith Small followed with an account of her Christ mas treasures. There were several fine recitations given, interspersed with sing ing by the school choir. Little Charlie Ostram and Laurence Vibbert made the happy hits of the evening.

In the name of the school, he presented W. E. Gaylord, uperintendent, with beauti- ful picture, "Breaking of Home Ties, "a photogravure taken from the painting at che Worlds fair, which held the atten- tion and interest of so many of the visit ors.

 Christmas day was very mild and pleasant one, though at one time rain clouds threatened to make it very disa- greeable, they soon passed away. Not withstanding the hard times. many Christmas presents passed through .he mali and express office.

ANOTHER CORRESPON DENT SPEAKS UP.
 Your correspondent of last week voices sentiment in which we feel reasonably sure, every individual mem Der Of the several societies in town will concur. The mere assembling together to pass the time in idle frivolity is not a very praisewortby object. Yet who shall say that the usefulness of any organization which is constituted for a worthy motive is impaired because it also ministers to the social instincts of it's membership? Does any person who IS familiar with the objects and princi- pies of either of the three societies men, tioned, find in them anything of useless ness? We think not. Nor is their effi- ciency in aiding our fellowmen when in distress, of caring for the sick and assist lngsthe widow and orphan, made less by the healthy amusement they may furnish their members. If by their aid, but one young man is kept away, for but one night in the week, from the places of questionable amusements which exist, we feel that their mission has not been in vain. The Scriptures read, s'There is time for weeping and time for laugh ter, time to mourn and a time to dance." The young man must have his amusement. Better the society than the saloon to furnish it, *
