W. C. Paden, distribution of presents, song by Choir, Benediction.

When the curtain was withdrawn, Santa Claus was seen emerging from the chimney, pressed for frost and snow. He was in his usual jolly good humor. When he had recovered his surprise at seeing so many people out of bed at that time of night, as the clock on the mantel indicated past twelve o'clock. Santa's expressive countenance beamed on big and little. His expansive girth indicated that Santa enjoyed good living.

Tho' the little one's stood in some awe of him, yet none were too cowardlv to accept the tempting bait held in his extended hand, Taken all in all, it was an enjoyable evening.
