Instead of the old time Christmas tree they built a. ship on which to distribute the gifts which were costly and numerous. Dolls, | toys, of all descriptions, handker-l chiefs, books, cardS, mittens,” too numerous to mention, kid gloves, fur~ gauntlets, overshoes and a dainty pair of blue kid boots for Willie Kay. One doll that was presented to Her- bie Tremeer from his auntie was ..as big as a child of two years old. Herâ€"1 bie seemed very proud of his dollie.‘ Orange Hall the crowd assembled in the church, the pews of which were packed and a great many- people had to stand in the aisles. The program was lengthy, but so profound was the interest that scarcely a person left the building until closing time. The fancy drills and marehes were well worth the admission fee, not to men- tion the recitations. dialogues and songs by the school scholars. Miss Maxwell may well be proud of her school.
