Christmas day has come and gone,

enjoyment of which everyone was in
vited to take a part, will not soon be
forgotten by those who viewed it as
the many colored lights were lighted
and it shone forth in all it's glory, q
silent and lonely looking figure, but the
giver of SO much cheer and happiness
to the hearts of those who think upon
Christmas with any sentiment. No
gifts were distributed among the chill
dren, but the impression intended and
realized by those gathered around the
tree was the joyousness of the chill
dren as they gave expression to their
lighthe rtedness through the singing
OF the Christmas carols.
The streets were lined on either side
with people when the first music OF
the band was to be heard playing
about the tree. This part of the pro-
grom was heartily enjoyed and was
much appreciated. Soon the voices OF
the children were heard as they march.

The Methodists make much of Christ

beautiful than ever. The exercises
at this church were held after the

school classes had their penants hang
ing above the tree and the tree itself
brought Joy to the hearts of the little
tots. The annual Christmas offering,
which is sent to an orphans home in
Nebraska, was gathered in stockings
by the children and a goodly amount
was received. At the close of the pro-
gram those present received pop
corn balls, oranges and gifts. 1t was a
pleasant occasion and one which will
long be remembered by the members
of the Sunday school.

At the Presbyterian church special
arrangements were made this year for
a gala event. A large tree was beau
tifully decorated and the lighting was
most effective, thirty small electric
globes being used to light the tree. The
children of the different Sunday school
classes gave a pleasing entertainment
consisting of music and recitations.
One of the features of the evening was
the receiving OF gifts of money and
groceries to be distributed among the
needy ones of the city. The money gifts
totaled $1,000 and this collection
was used to buy groceries and fuel
