CHRISTMAS BELLS,

The bells are ringing soft and low,
The herald Of the ChriStmas-tide;
New England winter Office and snow,
Mantle the country far and wide,
While out in the woodland brown and scar,
The fairies tell of the dying year.
In every farm house. in every town.
The yule log casts its ruddy blaze; ---'"
And the old bells ring from the gray church
towers,
Calling the people forth to praise
How joyfully the bells proclaim,
That Christmas time has come again.
Again the Christmas robes adorn,
The bells are ringing out joyful cheer
But changed the scene that greets the morn,
And welcomes the end of the dying year.
Caiifornia's treSses deck the day,
And turn December into May.
Out in the shadows of the orange tree shade,
Covering the ground as flakes of snow,
Are the blossoms cast from the boughs above,
And drifting into the grass below.
We sink 10 rest as the evening dWellS,
And bears the music of the Christmas bells.

The Kfndergarrens.

There was a reunion of the pupils of the
several kindergartens at Turner Hall
yesterday forenoon, under the auspices
of the kindergarten Association, the lady
members of which were there in person
to see that the children enjoyed the
Christmas festivities prepared for them.
The hall had been handsomely deco
rated for the occasion. and in its center
lowered q mammoth Christmas tree
laden with pretty and useful gifts for the
little ones. The hearts of the children
beat fast as they feasted their eyes on the
beautiful things which the generous
members ofthe association had procured
for them, and their childish eyes were
opened wide with astonishment.
They had all heard of Christmas trees
and holiday gifts, no doubt, but there
were many children there TO whom the
occasion was revelation, and many 9TH
ers who had perhaps never known the
happiness Of receiving Christmas pres
eut.
When the pupils had all been placed in
line tor the grand march they presented
an interesting spectacle. The Second and
NJ streets kindergarten was under the di-
rection of Miss Mildred Obarr and Miss
Myrtle Goyan; the Marguerite Kinder
garten, Twenty-third and X streets, un-
der the direction of Misses Alys Pullman
and Ollie Maydwell; the Frebel Kinder
garten, under the direction Of Misses
Ella Mcintyre and Carrie Estes. Misses
frankie Morse and Nellie Dunlap as
sisted the ladies in the drilling.
After an hour spent in singing Christ
mas songs and other exercises the pres
ents were distributed. The scene during
this portion of the preceding was one
that must have thrilled the hearts of the
large audience present. The little ones
We're happier than they ever were before
it was the red-letter day OF their lives
thus far.
At the conclusion of the exercises the
happy children were all returned in ON
nibuses to their homes.
