to its members on Monday evening.
The decorations, which were most
generous, yet tremendously placed,
consisted of cypress and just the
proper amount of colored paper cut
into short strips, strung crosswlse of
the room. The tree stood near the
pulpit and fairly groaned under its
load of good cheer. A packed house,
with goodly sprinkling of eager
boys and girls showed convincing

of the time as his white brother. The
tree yielded something for everybody

picted on every face
