SOCIAL SATURDAY NIGHT. -- One blessed joy, of Christmas, which the young of ihe day are losing alto- gether is that which comes from work- ing amongst the evergreens, just plain, simple church trimming -- "making Leautiful the place of the sanctuary." 'There's something in the scent of the boughs which heartens up, which never fails to lead subtly back from the time that now is, to the glorious past that was, when the heart was young, and mischief was rife, and over the Chrisumastide hung the shadow of no cloud. And the hoys and girls of nowaday are laying up no such bright and iragrant memory for themselves poor kids! For nobody turns out to the church trimming, but the few, and they are not of tke juveniles. Lonz ago, in a long, low wooden s-hoolhouse, to which you climbed by the most rickety steps, whose small- pancd windows Jdooked out to the west over an old church in its quiet churchyard, such a crowd used to gather through the Advent weeks. Young men and maidens chiefly, who found it a most advantageous place for surrentitious courtship. But the boys and girls got the most fun out of it after all, for weren't the spooney | ones' performances cakes and all to them just ? There was one dear pair in pa ticular (they're married long azo) who used to beguile many an hour when a heavy snow storm made it impossible to beg off from bough- cutting, and go bob sleighing on the hill which lay close and convenient outside, and if a respectable married banter, with a family, and a very de- ¢crous woman, are not deeply sorry for the tricks they played on the twain, it's because their consciences are hard indeed. And the joy of being prouoted from cutting boughs to making wreaths! When the gentle lady. who always decked the old three decker pulpit with such perfect art, such loving care, and who never scold cd when the wreaths got slowly and swely fatter. And the snowball fights when "'bluggy" noses were not uncom- mon. And the towering rages of the crank or two who were always com- plaining of the difference between man ners in their day and, the time when their motheis" grandchildren played their pranks. Ah! sure it's no Christ mas at all with the church-trimming leit out. - » » - cest bale of Christmas gifts you ever saw, which were being sent by the girls of the cathedral C.C.M.G., which is under the bright gnd capable super intendency of Miss Bessie, to a Sun day s-hool in an outlying district for a Christmas tree. Dollies, jack knives, strings of the beautifullest heads, toys books, and a'candy bag with each gift, with 4 great bunch of scarlet mittens which were just "thrown in" and weren't part of the Christmas pre sents at all, but will no doubt be much appreciated ,s supplementary to the toys, though inctead of them they would no doubt have been heartily despised. o a delightful tea hostess her A very large and claimed Mrs. Neil Polson Wednesday afternoon, as on and | Mrs. Farrell, Mrs. Coy, Mrs. .J. ed at the tea hour, in spite of the un- pleasantness of out-of-doors. Mrs. Pol- son received her guesfs in a handsome black gown with full front of pretty lace, ovir white satin.

Numerous city chari- ties received substantial cheques from Mr. Bate and his wife.
