In their Investigation of the UNI

gists of the United States geological
survey have collected data relating
to many hundreds of artesian wells

being notably greater at the flood
than at the ebb tide. Ii is the gem

Miss Esta McLain spent few days

The seating capacity of st. Johns Re-
formed church was taxed to its utmost
on Friday evening, Jan'y 9TH, when the
beautiful and inspiring Bethlehem Page
ant was given. This is said to have been
the only thing of its kind ever given in
the section. The setting for the Pageant
was magnificent scenic reproduction of
the town of Bethlehem, in artistic and
beautiful colorings and measuring 9x27
feet. The period of time represented
was the night before and the morning of
the Nativity, the appearance of the angel,
the star, the coming of the Shepherds
and the Wise Men.
The scene opened with a meeting OF
the Bethlehem boys and girls who most
naturally tell of the deeds of greatness
of their ancestors and repeat the prophe-
sizes of the coming of the Messiah. After
the singing of Little Town of Bethle-
hem" and during "Holy Night" the
Shepherds enter and tell of their wonderl
experience in the fields. During the
singing "While Shepherds Watched the
angel 10y an arrangement of concealed
lights becomes luminous. Later the Inn
keeper enters lamenting his refusal of a
room in the Inn to that humble pair
who begged me for room that night.
"No room in the Inn" in the Inn is then
most feelingly sung. Later the Wise
Men, following the star (made luminous)
enter singing 1--WE Three Kings of the
Orient Are," as climax the entire COM
pany "Hasten to Adore Him and the
Pageant closes with the group upon bend
ed knee singing "Adestes Fidelis.' The
large audience listened with rapt atten-
zion. The costumes showed careful study
md preparation and were very beautiful.

ireek, in white and gold; Mr.. Thomas
Pryor, as Melchini, the Persian. in blue;
Mr.. William Bentzel, as Balthazar, the
Egyptian, in crimson, were very effect
i've. Messrs. C. B. Harbaugh, C. N.
Stem and Carl Firor. as Shepherds. and
Mr.. Hugh Ely, as Inn keeper, were
realistic and impressive. Miss Ruth Firor
was pianist and sang "The Lord is Mind
full of His own" and Miss Agnes Har-
baugh sang Nazareth" Others taking
part were Misses Emma and Mary Craw-

in hand went to the postoffice and was
fired upon by the thieves. He return ed
their fire, but a waiting automobile soon
had the thieves out of town.
