THOROFARE.

Santa given by the Junior Epworth
! League, in Wilkins Hall on last Sat
urday evening was in all respects a
success. The hall was well filled;
the young people played their parts
| in way to win applause on the dra-
matte STAGE, and sang with sweetness
and enthusiasm. Especial mention
should be made of Helen Marnhout
who ,as queen of the gypsies, dressed
her part artistically, acted it effect
lively and sang unusually we'll; of
Florence Wyne, who made a most
amusing rag doll, and who sang with
grace and sweetness, and of Mabel
Rambo who looked as sweet and in
nocent as any queen of the fairies, in
resplendent golden crown, could
| look. She also sang very sweetly.
The brigands played their parts we'll
and found great favor with the au-
dience. Miss Josie Wyne at the
piano, Mr.. w Leslie Gibbs as Santa,
and Mr.. Nelson Skill as the old sex
ton added greatly to the success of
the evening. In fact all who took
part played their parts with credit
to themselves, and to their superin-
tendent, Mrs. Anna Nolte.
