iarge cedar tree surrounded by |
four smaller ones, all beautifully |
decorated and coruscating with j
gleaming tapers, shining golden:
through Ure dark green toiiage.
besides bearing several kinds of ^
trail lor all the children the trees ,
were literally a treasure store of;
all kinds of presents for the little j
ones. Many of I lie children oi h |
larger growth were likewise re-1
memberel with a pleasant little
souvenir from the tree.
lie fore distributing the presents j
Ilev. W. Smith Martin in a brief!
speech tallied interestingly on the
subj-d of Christmas, reminding'
the children at the Christ-child of
Helhiehem, whose birth gave to
us a Savior and made possible the
redemption of a sinful world. Following
this Mr. Martin detached
each article Irom the trees, readi
aloud thy name of the owner and
delivered the present. The affair
was well managed in every respect,
and the committee of ar-j
van "-ements are entitled to much j
praise ior frbeir work of love in
hri;;hJe"tii?? the lives of the children
on Christmas night.
