The Christmas exercises at the Presbyterion church were witnessed by a large number of the congregation and were in splendid spirit and well done in every particular. The sing ing, recitations and drills were thor oughly prepared and the little ones, misses and masters of the Sunday school entered heartily into the exer cises, while the organ duets and the congregational singing had the correct Christmas enthusiasm. Santa Claus, of course, appeared and made merry time for the little ones and the dis tribution of presents was anxiously looked for and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Christmas eve at the Methodist church was an exceedingly joyful one. There was, of course, a tree filled with presents for the dear ones from loving hauds, besides presents for everybody. The exercises were for the most part rendered by the grown ups, as Supt. Tracy was ill and could not work up the Sunday school exer cises by the little ones, but it was a joyful time all the same. At the Baptist church the little folks gave a most excellent program on Christmas eve, and a tree filled with presents for every child, with the proverbial Santa Claus, filled witn delight the childish mind and made the older folks equally happy.

Cleoria Notes. Near Smith Center, Kansas, Dec. 18, 1907, the angel of death took Mm. Dorje Barnes, mother of Charles Barnes, to her long resting place. She was brave and fearless to the last, as she always had been through life, being one of Kansas* old time settlers. Many times during her youth and after marriage she would take her horse and saddle and ride along the Indian trail for miles t<o do her shopping and come home singing as if her path was only strewn with rabbits and flowers, while the Indians skulked near by in the bushes, but alas, that dreaded disease, consump tion, closed in and claimed her. She leaves to mourn her loss her husband, an aged mother, two sons, two daugh ters and five grandchildren. Farewell mother, we’ll miss you, but we loved you. We understand Mr. Chas.
