That's What Is Agoing to Happen
in the Bingville Church This
Year. Let Everybody Struggle
& Work to Make 1t a Sucksess

Arrangements have beer made to
hold a Xmas tree and entertainment in
our church this Xmas. This occasion
will be entirely free and everybody
whether male or female, Democrats Or
Republicans or church members is cor
daily invited to be present and bring
their children. Following is the official
programme:
Prayer, Rev. Samuel Moore, anthem.
by the choir (the solo part i'll this an
them was to of have been took by Miss
Amelia Tucker, Bingville's society
queen, but being as Miss Amelia has a
bad cold in her head and can't sing
without singing through her nose. the
solo part will probably be sang by Miss
Sally Foskins which amt no SLOUGH as
a singer possessing full clear voice of
large calibre); Recitation "'Twas the
Night Before Xmas etc. by little
Johtlny Slocomb: Solo-"Ring Out
Glad Bells by Marian Ann Hawkins
Hang up Your Stockings -
by Tommy Tucker: Children's Choir
us-"Bare the Joyous Tidings,' by the
children: Duet-"Reindeer Bells by
Sally Brown and Willie Perkins; Reel
tation-"How Sanity Claws Stuck up

tlen1-"Hail. Hail. Hail" BY the choir.
At this juncture Hez Simpson, soop-
erintendent of the Sunday school will
make a speech to the children thanking
them one and all for their presence and
wishing them merry Xmas and many
Of same. Hez will review the work
which has been accomplished by the S.
School during the fiscal year just closed
and will call particular attention to the
fact that during the three weeks pre-
ceding Xmas she Sunday school atten-
dance has increased six hundred per
cent Hez regards this as remarkable.
It is something which happens only
once year.
After this speech will come the treat.
Deacon Andrews is going to dress Up
and act like Sanity Claus. The deacon
was chose for this because he has such
long whiskers and so many of them.
He is bald as an egg, however, and will
haft to wear a wig. After the Deacon
distributes the candy the presents will
be took often the Xmas tree and the
name of who they are for called out by
our beloved Faster Rev Moore. Then
it will be time to go home and go to bed

letter to us being as there might be
something in it fit to print in the Bugle.
Eph took the letter outen the box and
was just going to do so when Jim his

To thee, my master, l offer my pray
er. Feed me and take care of me. Be
kind to me. Do not jerk the reins. Do
not whip me when going uphill.
Never strike. beat or kick me when
l fail to understand what you want of
me, but give me a chance to under
stand you. Watch me, and if l refuse
to do your bidding see if there is not
something wrong with my harness.
Do not give me too heavy loads New
er hitch me where water will drip on
me. Keep me well shod. Examine my
teeth when | fail to eat may have
an liberated tooth. That, you know,
is very painful. l am unable to tell
you in words when l am sick, SO
watch me. and l will try to tell you by
signs.
Pet me sometimes. enjoy it, and
I will learn to love you.
Protect me in summer from the hot
sun. Keep a blanket on me in winter
weather. and never put frosty bit in
my mouth, but hold it in your hands a
moment first
carry you, pull you, wait patiently
for you long hours, day or night.
cannot tell you when l am thirsty;
give me clean. cool water often in hot
weather.
Finally, when my strength is gone.
instead of turning me over to hu-
man brute to be tortured and starved.
take my life in the easiest, quickest
way, and your God will reward you in
this life and in heaven. Amen.-From
