Christmas Festivities.

Long live Santa Claus! He is king of
the world at Christmas time. The
-whiskered, kindly old gentle
man was pretty busy Christmas Eve,
but he sighted no one in this locality.
Besides visiting the Lutheran Church,
Raycraft's hall and some of the school
houses, he made his appearance in
several private residences in town and
in the valley. 1t is a most remarkable
feat of Old Santa Claus, this thing of
flying about the world in so short a
time, but he manages it somehow,
leaving happiness and good cheer in
his path.
At the Lutheran Church and in Ray
crafts hall the Christmas exercises
were very pretty and interesting, and
the decorations profuse and beautiful.
1t was the children's night-Christmas
Eve-when little hearts beat with sup
pressed expectancy as Santa Claus dis
tributes the presents, and a moment
later when their names are called and
they see that for which they have most
yearned handed to them, the little
ones leap with joy and gladness. 1t
is night when older folks are chill
dren again; catching the joyous Christ
mas spirit from their offspring, they
rejoice with them and are as happy as
the little ones.
Such were the scenes Monday even
ing in Genoa and at the Lutheran
Church. Raycraft's hall was beauti-
fully decorated and an elaborate and
delightful programme, in which the
children were the principal partici-
pants, was given. Two large trees
were loaded down with useful and
beautiful articles and every child was
given present. The exercises were
very interesting and the entire pro-
gramme was exceedingly well rem
dered.
A long programme and fine big
Christmas Tree constituted the enter
tainment at the Lutheran Church. Old
Santa Claus was there, as was evil
denced by the large number of pres
ents, although there was no imperson-
alton of him. The large heavily loaded
Christmas Tree was thing of 10Y and
beauty. The church was handsomely
decorated and the programme was
elaborate and Interesting, consisting of
recitations, dialogues, songs, etc.
Candy and nuts and nice presents were
distributed to all the children. Every
one of the little tots went home happy
and with kind remembrances of good
old Santa Claus.
