One Of the classes brought Post

The solos were all very ably handled,

consisting Of recitations, songs, dia-

members Of the Sunday School and

sents. Santa Claus arrived at the
proper time and presents were dis

teachers.
There was q Christmas tree at the
Episcopal church on Christmas eve
which was enjoyed by the Sunday
School pupils and on the following
morning Christmas services were
held with splendid program Of spe-

The usual Christmas exercises
we're observed at the Christian church
in an unusual way. For few weeks
preceding the happy time. the men,
bers Of the school were impressed
with the thought that Christmas time
was Q giving time. The idea was
pleasing and it was the keynote Of
the service. The church was filed
with members Of the school and
there was little room left for friends.
The church was simply decorated
with notices and Christmas greens.
Three trees were prettily decorated

get the church sufficiently finished
so that the evangelistic meetings ad-
vertised could be held in the new
building next week. OF course the
building could not have been COM
pletely finished by that time but it
was to be used during the meetings.
It is understood that the church
will be disposed to share the loss
with the contractors, so that the loss
will be about $500 for the builders
and the same for the church.
The building committee will begin
active work at once preparing to re-
build. Tomorrow the town will be
divided up by different committees,
and the citizens called upon to give
them a chance to assist what they
feel disposed to in making up the
loss, so that the building may be
started over. The weather will not
be so that the new walls could be
laid at once, but much can be done
in getting ready to rush the work
later. There seems to be an inclina-
ton TO rebuild with brick, II it is
found that the expense can be met for
that kind Of a building.

CHRISTMAS AT CHURCHES.

Splendid Entertainments at the Various
Churches by the Sunday Schools
Santa Claus In Evidence.
The Christmas entertainments by
the various Sunday Schools Of Dodge
City were particularly enjoyable this
year and the large crowds Of children
present showed the splendid growth
that has been made in Sunday School
work in the past year.
At the Presbyterian church on
Christmas eve a splendid program
was given by the little folks during
the first part of the evening, pro-
badly one of the most entertaining
little folks program ever witnessed
in the city. Santa Claus was time-
ly caller and took part in the pro-
gram, part Of the entertainment
that delighted the younger Sunday
School pupils. The contata which
closed the program was made up of
delightful music and dialogue, a
composition with discernable plot.
A crowd of young folks were togeth
er spending Christmas eve, and their
innocent fun and banter was part
Of the cantata, interspersed with 30
los and choruses. An orchestra ac-
compartment added much to the mu-
sical effect, and altogether it was pro-
nounced by many present as the
best thing in this line they ever
he ard.
At the close Of the exercises the
Christmas treat was distributed
among the pupils Of the SUNDAY
School.
An excellent Christmas program
was enjoyed at the Methodist church
on Christmas eve. The church was
beautifully decorated in the holiday
spirit and the orchestra welcomed
the audience with music appropriate
for the occasion. Recitations and
songs by the Sunday School scholars
and classes furnished the entertain
ment. The opening number was the
"The Holy City," baritone solo
played very beautifully by Mr..
Frantz Stapgl. The main program
was however children's program
and they were given the leading
parts. Mrs. Hobbies class Of "t"ts''
we're easily the star performers OF fhe
evening and sang their song and
gave their class recitation in q way
that not only amused the audience
very much but at the same time gave
proud parents increased Joy, and
pride OF course Santa Claus was
there looking younger and heartier
than in years pat and when he came
tumbling down the huge fireplace
and burst into jolly song for the
children. many experienced their
happiest moment. Then the candy
was distributed each scholar and at
sendant receiving one Of the bricks
from the fire place, filled with Christ
mas sweets.
"The King Of Israel" Mr.. Chas.
Gabriel's cantata, was sung al the
Methodist church Sunday evening,
BY the choir OF sixteen voices under
the direction Of Mr.. Will incl. This
is q very beautiful Cantata with good
full choruses, choice quartettes Duets
and solos and the manner in which
II was sung shows the result Of some
