CHRISTMAS WITH PRESBYTERIANS.
Program Given Sunday Evening With Con-
siderable EcIat and Music Pronounced the
Finest Given in Several Years.

Christmas was celebrated at the
Presbyterian Church Sunday evening
with considerable eclat and with a
musical program that has been pro-
nounced the best in years. The
church was beautifully decorated with
evergreen trees, holly and mistletoe
banked principally in the pulpit re-
cess and organ loft. The arrangement
of these decorations was unusually at
tractive. The exercises were in
charge of Mr.. I. J. Warner, leader of
the meeting and the music was ably
directed by Mr.. J. Edwin Hoffecker.
The choir was given valuable assist
ance by an enlarged Sunday School
orchestra. After an orchestral selec-
ton, the choir sang "Rejoice and
Sing" followed by a congregational
hymn, clark the Herald Angels
Sing" Responsive Reading was then
said, the choir rendered an anthem
