The weath- er was very unpropitious, but that did not deter large numbers from at- tending, although no doubt. there would have been more of the lit- tle ones out but for the rain. | St. Paul's. St. Paul's church has always made its Christmas festival an event of the year for the children, and last night's tree was no exception. 'The platform in the Sunday school room had been fitted up with an old fash- ioned fire place and chimney, and . while a clgss of little girls was giv- ing a song and motion exercise in | their nighties, Santa Claus himself crawled out of the fireplace, having literally come down the chimney. John Herrick was an ideal Saint Nick, and when he came to dis- tribute gifts from the tree, found himself an object of great venera- tion and solicitude on the part of the children. Each 'child was - re- membered with a present, and also | received a box of candy. The choral exercises by the little ones were f1n- ' » ally fine. Phe Rev. Herbert Finch pastor of the church, who is very popular. with his congregation, was present- ed with a holly wreath, to which was attached an envelope enclosing a $50 | . bill. Superintendent Dockstider, who some of the members of the school complain has a very weak voice, was given a megaphone 'rnd his assis- | tant, John Argersinger, (was sented with a dresser in order that ne might become a rival to his su- perior in good' looks w.

It seemed 'to the scholars of the United Presbyterian Sunday school as if they were really beholding thet home of Santa Claus himself, and those who had a part in the fairy cantata, \Up the Chimney,\ - took their parts perfectly. Across background of the platform was what appeared to be a forest of evergreens, while in the front was a fireplace upon which a burned. Santa Claus finally made his appearance and distributed the gifts, which was the crowning part of the affair for the little ones. The cantata was 's due to Miss Grace Raymond and | Arthur Walker, who were in charge of it. The Rev. James A. William- son, D. D., was given a house jacket; Superintendent Clarence Argersinger received a silk umbrella, and Miss Grace Raymond, the church organ- ist, a beautiful chain and pendant. Baptist. Chester Shepard acted the part of Good Saint Nick for the entertain- ment of the scholars of the Baptist Sunday school, and distributed the gifts and presents. There was a large attendance and everyone enjoyed the cantata, \Dr. Santa Claus' Cure.\ ~f Presbyetrian. The exercises at\ the Presbyterian church were typical of the Bible ac- count of the nativity. A large star { was suspended above the pulpit, and in the darkened fnterior of the au- 1 ditorium blazed with real Christmas beauty when the electricity was turn- ed on. \Wise Men from the East\! marched down the aisle and stood under the star, making it seom like } the first Christmas eve. The passage of scripture concerning the wise men discovering the star and following it .was then read and the spectacle was greatly impressive to say the least. Edward C. Macintyre, superintendent of the Sunday solicol, acted as Santa Claus, Miss Gracé' Mason as Mother Goose and Harvey Smith as Jack Frost. liitle girls were dressed to represent bells, holly and mistletoe and the cantata from beginning to end was nmost picturesque. 'At the | close of the cantata, Rev. Charles; MeKenzie gave the children a splen- did Christmas talk and then all re- paired to the chapel, where the Christmas tree was stationed.
