wood Baptist church Monday evening
was from every point of view one of
the most enjoyable entertainments
ever given in the church. The audi
forum was artistically decorated with
evergreens, a part of the decoration be-
ing a mammoth tree brilliantly trimmed
at the left of the platform. The title of
the concert exercise was 1.-THE Light of
Life" ID. M. VanHorn, the bible
school superintendent, was in charge.
The pastor, DIR. Riddle, led in prayer.
The singing was inspiring, being sup
ported by an orchestra of seven pieces
recently formed in the school. The
group and individual Rotations were
excellent and varied in character, a
pleasing incident being a recitation by
the oldest scholar, Mrs. Graham, 81
years of age, followed by one from the
youngest member of the school, little
Elizabeth Eldredge, three years of age.
Presents in great number We're distrib-
uted by Santa Claus who came down
the chimney and was given an enthus-
iastic greeting by the expectant audi

Sunday school superintendent were
among those remembered.
