All the rccitations and speech by

be brief, the entire programme was
carried out in most creditable and
dignified manner, which not only re-
Elected much credit upon the speak

had taken so much pains in preparing
them. Mrs. Epps was the organist
and the beautiful songs added much
to the occasion.
After the speaking was over, Mr..

selves in a very gigantic style and the
beautiful tree, which stood to the right
Of the altar was unloadcd of it's
bountiful gifts Of various nature and
handed around by Mr.. ad Mrs. Santa

liable manner.
