A MERRY CHRISTMAS!

after this fashion : "Little Lucy Priest"
"Little Florence Bradbury" and "Little
Mary Neales" and many, many more,
who are, perhaps, over well, not just
children, and all the while the big au
dience joined in the laughter with the
children and everybody felt good natured
and happy; glad that there was a
"Christmas."
When the last bag of candy was gone
and the orange table was empty, Santa
said good-bye to the children and leaping
on the stage disappeared as their sweet
voices were raised in a pandemonium of
happy response.
Mr. A. G. Warren, of New York city,
made a perfect Santa Claus and was fine
ly gotten up, dressed in a bright red
kniekerbocker suit and high boots trim
med with white and wearing a high
peaked hat, a irresistable smile and a full
flowing beard.
lie was assisted in the distribution of
the gifts by Mrs. Montgomery A. Crock
ett, of Buffalo, Mrs. Arthur C. Ketcham,
of New York, Mrs. C. E. Atkinson, of
Newburyport, Mass., and Mrs. A. I.
Creamer, of Pinehurst.
The children were seated by a com
mittee of which Miss Priest was chairman.
Tlie Afternoon's l'rog-ram.
Friday afternoon's program which be
gan at 2 o'clock, drew a company which
nearly filled the hall. The little ones
were looked after with the same care, as
regard to the best seats, as on the even
ing previous. Toys and useful presents,
confections and oranges were given
to every child present by the same
genial jolly Santa Claus. The Holly
Inn orchestra was also in attendance.
A slight change in the program was
made. At first came a selection by the
orchestra and after which the children
sang three carols, then the orchestra
played again and "The Night Before
Christmas" was read very delightfully
by Rev. A. E. Johnson, of Providence,
R. I.
A pleasing effect was produced by
darkening the windows of the hall and
lighting the interior by electricity.

The trees were arranged by the follow
ing committee: Mrs. W. J. Creveling,
Trenton, N. J. ; Mrs. Arthur C. Ketcham,

the tabernacle of the divine presence.
In the lowliness of Bethlehem and Naza
reth the glory of the Son of God was
veiled from the sight of man, but He
who walked among men in humility and
suffering was Emanuel, God with us.
He received men's worship and claimed
their allegiance as His due.
The divine presence is still on earth,
for the Church of Christ is His Body, the
fulness of Him that filleth all in all.
Through him we have access to God,
and the blessing of the Almighty rests
on all who seek him.
Through the life of His followers our
Saviour means that God should be daily
made manifest unto men. He is with us
in the simple things of every day life,
and gives us here a foretaste of that
blessed presence which shall be revealed
in the fulness of the great hereafter.
The Christmas day offerings were for
General Missions.
