CHRISTMAS EXERCISES.
Various Sunday Schools of Redwood Falls
Have Entertainments.

Christmas of 1903 was one of the
coolest days of the season, and the
cold weather was reinforced by a
strong north west wind that sent

and praries 10 a wondrous way. In
Redwood Falls the day was quietly
observed by family dinner parties,
and in visiting and recalling other
Christmasses gone by.
Three Sunday schools, the Chris
tian. the Methodist and Presenter
ian, had Christmas entertainments
for the pupils on Christmas eve,
while the Episcopal entertainment
was GU Monday evening. All OF
these entertainments were well at
tended. At the Catholic church,
services were held several times
during Christmas forenoon, while
services were held at the Episco-
pal church at 9 and 10 o'clock, spec
ial music being furnished for the
occasion.
At the Christian church two trees
were decorated with candy, pop
corn and the like, and after an ter
esting musical and literary pro-
gram had been rendered by the pup
lis, candy, pop corn and nuts were
scattered among all present.

GETS HER BOY.
Father Leaves Eleven-Year Old Son to
Hoe For Himself Near Minot.

Mrs. Mary Boelter returned on
Dec. 10Th from a trip to Minot,
North Dakota, bringing with her
Oscar Boelter, her eleven-year old
son, who was enticed away from his
mother by Pere Boelter in May last.
Mrs. Boelter was divorced from
her husband a little more than two
years ago, and at the time Judge
Weber issued his decree he gave
Mrs. Boelter the custody and guard
ianship of the three minor sons.
After the divorce was entered, or
short time prior thereto, Boelter
left for North Dakota, and succeeded
in securing a homestead near Minot.
After settling on the homestead he
used every means of coaXing Oscar
away from the care of his mother.
Early last sping Mrs. Boelter per-
United the boy to pass into the en-
ploy of John Stewart, and it was
while he was working there that
Boelter pere called on him and in-
duced him to join him at Gibbon,
from which point he was making a
shipment to- Minot, the inducement
being the turning over of large
amount of personal property. Mrs.
Boelter knew nothing of her son S
departure until several days after.
Early last September Boelter left
the homestead aud he has since
been in Redwo county. The boy
was left there alone to take care of
the stock aud do other farm work.
He was obliged to obtain his food
from the neighbors, and his cloth
ing was very sparse. Shortly after
he was left there alone he wrote his
mother that he wanted to come home.
a correspondence he was not per-
mitted to take up while his father
was on the farm, and Mrs Boelter,
learning that her divorced husband
was in Redwood Falls, and With
money saved from hard LABOR. left
for Minot on the 10Th. When the
boy saw her he burst into tears of
Joy. He is now with her ia this
city.

star drill was given by Miss
Schoening's class of girls, and de-
spite the short time allowed for
preparation, was we'll rendered,
and showed the good training given
bv the teacher. The Christmas
reading by Miss Mabel Brown de-
serves special mention. Through
out the exercises, songs were given
by the school under the leadership
of Prof Jones.
A new feature of the program was
the introduction of q series Of seem
ingly impromptu recitations and
songs TO pass the time away until
the arrival of Santa. During this
time Mr.. Wallace entertained by a
story in song, and Douglas Corpron
elected rounds OF applause by his
song entitled. AN Unpleasant
Christmas Present. When Santa
Claus appeared in the person of Mr..
Lutz, the children crowded around
him in anticipation of the good
things. The giving of bags of nuts
and candies to the different classes
closed the program of the even
ing. The orchestra which consisted
of Mr.. Tenney with violin, Forest
King and ROLAND Lutz with horns,
and Miss Ethel Bowers who pre-
sided at the piano, tended much
| toward the success of the evening.
The altar railing was tastefully
wound with evergreen rope and the
chandelier and other lights were
decorated with holly, while back in
the choir box stood an enormous
Christmas tree filled with all manner
of good things The program was
tinised at $50, and all went home
we'll pleased with the evenings en-
tertainment.
| PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
Here was a fine program and lots
of it, prettily decorated church,
and a crowded attendance. Young
America was at the fore, as it ought
to be. Even the decorating was
done-and most tastefully done-by
a class of young ladies. For a
background there were ribbon fes-
ICONS in harmonious colors, brought
together under the center of the
pretty gothic gable and secured by

lation of lesser stars below it. At
one side of the improvised stage
the pulpit platform was Christ
mas tree, tall and we'll loaded on
the other the piano and the young
peoples choir. The latter sang a
number of Christmas chorals during
the evening. There were vocal
solos by Misses Curtis, Ezra and
Pease, Mrs. Fred. Wilson and Give
Aiken. and duet by Misses Pease
and Lutte Robinson, all Of which
were heartily applauded the piano
soloists were Misses Belt, Cooper
and Thune- talented trio. r CT
lations were given by Misses Jen-
ME Peabody, Zelma Thune and
Jennie Vail, and series of dialogues
and juvenile dramas by the younger
Sunday school pupils. The program
was SO long that pretty Baby Thune
grew impatient in her audible de-
mands for Santatlaus. Little Ella
Mason made a decided hit as the
forerunner of Santa, who appeared
in double strength = old Santa and
little Christine latter completely
eclipsing the old man by dancing a
lightning jig that nearly convulsed
the audience. This star juvenile
was "Speck " Howard. The usual
distribution of candy packages
closed the entertainment.
EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Last in point of time but not in
interest, were the Christmas exer-
cises for the Episcopal Sunday
school. These were held at the
church on Monday evening, where
a Christmas tree gaily decorated and
illuminated was displayed, and
after interesting exercises by the
children, candies and nuts were
literally distributed
