l Wonder How the Old Folks Are
at Home Tonight, by Miss Michaels
and Miss Mills.
With the conclusion of the program
of entertainment, the little folks were
called up and marching in divisions,
according to their ages, received the
gifts provided for them, which con-
sisted of Christmas stockings for the
smaller tots, filled with candies, nuts
and little toys, while the older chill
dren were given games and toys of
various kinds, apples, oranges, etc.
Santa Claus took a prominent part in
both the program and the distribution
was very real to the children and very
pleasing to their elders.
The German-American Christmas
celebrations in the past have been
very delightful events, confined, how
ever, to the members of the society
and their immediate friends, but this
year it was proposed to extend the
range of the entertainment and an
invitation was extended to the public
| generally to be present and the re-
Spouse exceeded all expectations.
The auditorium presented an ex-
ceedingly bright and attractive ap-
pearance, with it's lights and decora
tions and the great crowd of interest
ed children and grown people, and 9
flashlight picture was made of the
scene.
The lobby also had been made par
ticularly attractive with number
and variety of potted plants and fern:

.DAYTONA ENJOYS
IDEAL CHRISTMAS

All Daytona enjoyed an ideal Christ
mas. The combination of perfect
weather and an unusually high-tide of
Christmas spirit insured happy hol-
iday for both visitors and residents.
The character of the services in the
churches was exceptionally interest
ing, and the choirs fairly outdid them
selves in rendering particularly fine
music
The Sunday school entertainment of
the First Baptist church was given
on Christmas night, at TOO o'clock.
Many were the interesting and in
structive features rendered. Among
the most notable were two religious
plays entitled THE Voices of the
Women" produced by the Philathea
class and Gifts for the King" by
Miss Rosyland Otis class.

GERMAN AMERICAN
XMAS CELEBRATION
BIG CROWD GATHERED IN THE
ARCADE AUDITORIUM SUNDAY
EVENING TO ENJOY A REAL
GERMAN CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL

The Christmas celebration held by
the German-American society Sunday
evening in the Arcade auditorium was
by far the largest and most import
ant gathering of this kind ever held
in Daytona
The big hall, which has capacity
of about 1000, was well on to being
filled, 1900 or more people being pres
ent, including children and adults. and
they all had a great time.
In the center of the hall were ar
ranged several handsome Christmas
trees. prettily decorated and electric
ally lighted, and around them were
ranged tables on which reposed fruits
candies and the presents provided for
the children.
| C. F. Burgman, acting as master OF
ceremonies, stated that the children
present far outnumbered what hae
been expected, but an effort would be
made to see that each child received
Isome gift and this was done by draw
ling on business places in the vicinit,
for more toys, games, candies, etc
Mr.. Burgman explained to the chill
dren that while Santa Claus was pres
ent. he could not supply them wit
the presents which many had writer
for through letters published In tn
Daily News, but that he had small
gift of some kind for each and all.
: An interesting program of entel
tainment had been prepared, but wa
only carried out in part, owing to IN
growing restlessness of the man
