The
Christmas
Aftermath.

Did you forget anybody? If you
did acknowledge it by u card at
tached to the little present that
will be in time if Sc right away.
You can see e now so much
of fresh and beautiful merchan-
disc that you would not think it
possible that so many thousands
of dollars worth had gone out
from here into the homes of the
people during the last twenty
three days.
And this splendid completeness
after a holiday business that has
never been equaled in our nearly
twenty-five years in Washington.
And we have never done so
much business with so little trou-
bic and discomfort. Our people
have done their work faithfully
and well, and you, the public,
have shown US that this is the
store you wanted us to make; and
that you want to encourage us to
make it better and larger as fast
as We can.
We hope to be twice as large
next Xmas.
With some few exceptions the
choosing through the store is as
good as it was a week before
Christmas.
Yet, with this vast collection of
merchandise, there is just now
much of remnant character left
from the phenomenal holiday bus
mess. And in order to close out
this accumulation completely, be-
fore we enter the New Year, we

To Generous Public:
Relying upon the oft proven large
hearted liberality of the citizens of Cen
trail, and feeling that there was a general
appreciation of the efforts being made
to have a large, attractive church. and
free from debt, that the people might
feel that in their midst is ''an open door, "
''city of refuge" where the tempted
may flee and find strength and the sin
ming come and find helping hands and a
pardoning God. Three weeks ago sub
scription was started for the purpose
above indicated, and the entire debt of
st. James NJ. E. church (S2,500) laid
upon the hearts of the people. The re-
sponse was magnanimous in the ex-
treme, and the full amount asked for has
been subscribed. 1t is with humble
tharkfuln.ss that the church approaches
the now assured time exhorted to by
st. Paul, "Owe no man anything, but to
love one another" and we offer our
church and its living ministry tc the
entire community for comfort in sorrow,
help in distress and an earnest effort to
lead the people to 'the Lamb of God,
which taketh away the sin of the world"
