CHRISTMAS AT COUNTY LINE
It Mas a Happy Occasion.

Croxton, Va, Dec 18th, 1905.
The heavens Yere bright, the sun shone
down in splendor and glory, and all this
was reflected in the faces OF the immense
crowd which filed County Line Church
to the doors today. 4 bright, a merry,
a generous crowd, which gave strict at
tention to Rotations by the children, ex-
celent speeches by Rev. j. $. Ryland and
Capt g. 4. Smith, and joined with voices
and hearts in the music sung. Truly a
generous crowd, which contributed as
"a thank Offering to the Lord the hand
some sum Of 1872 A. For a country
church, surely County Line cannot be ex-
celled for the generosity OF its members,
when called upon for contributions and
free will offerings.
In the pulpit was the big-eyed wonder
and sole attractionfor the Sunday school
scholars, for there stood an immense
Ferris wheel, and upon it, arranged by
classes, was gift for every scholar and
teacher, and a gift of value, something
TO help as a remembrance of the day and
tree. Then the bags of candy and a
match Jox OF nice to gnaw it for the
children, and waters loaded down with
cake, candy and raisins passed to the
crowd. All too soon the day was over,
the enjoyment passed and all dispersed
to their homes. Another bright link had
been formed in the chain OF memory.
