Penobscot Bay Bethel Mission.

The Bethel at Cape Jellison was the scene
of happy merrymaking last Saturday even
ing, when large number of the children
gathered to celebrate the Christmas anniver-
sary. The spirit of good will and happiness
was apparent in the shining faces of the little
ones as they took part in the exercises, which
consisted ef dialogues, recitations, songs and
marches. These were followed by the intro
duction Of unique Santa Claus, who acted
the part of the good old Saint to perfection by
his inimitable way and makeup. The exer-
cises were under the supervision of Miss
Georg lie Haskell, the superintendent of the
Bethel Sunday school.
The Mission each year extends the Good
cheer to the children living on the lonely
islands. Superintendent Corson of the Mis-
sion says that over $50 children and their
parents were remembered this year, the gifts
ranging from a warm pair of blankets for
some needy mother, or warm new undercloth
ing for the children, to toys, books, cards, etc.
The Mission was able to do this by the aid of
its many friends, but especially much credit is
due the Current Events Club of Gardiner.

and beautifier and dandruff cure. l lost all
my hair through typhoid fever; l was almost
baldheaded and my scalp was as sore as could
be. tried everything. but in vain. Finally
