system provides almost perfect

The arrangement of the programme for
the occasion was assigned to commit.
tee consisting OF Misses Carrie Cooke,
Edith Graham, Edith Goodhand, Katie
Price, jamie Peake and Mary Williams,
and most creditably did these young
ladies perform their duty. The school
was assembled in the lecture room be-
fore 7:30 and at that hour the teachers
and scholars marched upstairs by class
es. The scene that met their sight was
truly Christmas-iike. The platform
had been enlarged and was covered
with representation of snow, while
figures on sleighs added to the realism
of the picture. After an opening hymn
by the school and prayer by the pas
tor, Rev. J. T. Williams, the audience
was startled and then amused by the
appearance OF a verltable Santa Claus,
Mr.. Wilmer Kemp who took up his
station on the platform and patiently
awaited for his services to become in
demand at the end of the programme.
which was as follows: Song by the
school; recitation, Miss Hattie Pollard;
song by the school; recitation, Miss
Bertha Peake; song by the school,; rec.
itation from Ben-Hur with appropriate
music, by T. II. Netherland, Miss Re-
becca Pollard and the choir; recitation,
Miss Nena Tanner; distribution of
presents and CONNECTIONS by Santa
Claus. The congregation then joined
in chanting the Lords prayer and were
dismissed with the benediction. One
feature of the evening was the bestowal
OF Christmas gift upon Miss Lulu
Cockey, orgaDist of the school, the pas
tor making the presentation on behalf
of the whole school. Those who took
part in the programme rendered the
various selections most creditably, The
entertainment ended very shortly after
nine o'clock, aud as the congregation
slowly dispersed there were numerous
expressions of qualification and praise
for the committee who were responsible
for the enjoyable occasion.

them all down together in 3 long row,
and we give them each in turn our al
