The Christmas entertainment ghven at Siletz Saturday evening was one of, if not the very best, in the history of the school. The decorations by our artists were good. Standing by the platform, which extended across the building, was the largest Christmas tree we have seen, loaded with presents, beautifully decorated with candles, ribbons and glittering ornaments. Underneath were three large bas kets nearly filled J; with presents. Great credit is due Superintendent Betz and all the employes who labored zealously to make it a suc cess. The people commenced as sembling early, and when the doors were opened at 7:30 p. m. the building filled rapidly until every available position was. occupied. When the curtains were drawn the school, arranged on the platform, satig the opening song. The scene was inspiring and; everyone happy. Lena Charley read in a pleasant way' "The Story" about the babe of Bethlehem. The piano duet by Mrs. Betz and Miss Kruger was well rendered and well received. W. II. Brown's comic recital of a German's trials and tribulations captured the audience and deserved the hearty applause that followed. Esther Copeland never sang better. Quiet reigned until the last word, when ; the usual expression of ap preciation was awarded her. The recitation, "Our Redeemer," exer cise, "Christmas picture and song," "The Child and the Shepherd," "Ring, Merry Christines (Bells," were all given in a very delightful way by the pupils,and their teach ers are to be congratulatedon""the admirable success of their training. Rev. Father Bucher, in a five minutes' talk, plucked some beau tiful flowers of truth from the past, present and future. His face glowed with enthusiasm and he received, as he richly deserved, commenda tion for for his aid in the entertain ment. The vocal duet by Miss Cha'mbers and JMrs. Bryant was generously applauded. The can tata, " We'll Have to Mortgage the Farm," was received with the warmest applause.T It well melTted all the many expressions of pleasure heard on every hand. Major Bu ford, as the old man, in full gray beard, gray hair and patched pants, and Mrs. Betz, as the old ladv. brought down the house. Misses Mary Buford' andAuna Chambers, asjthe daughters, were richly robed in dresses with long trains. W.II. Brown and Superintendent Betz found it so easy to play dude and beaux to the girls. It was superb, and must be seen toJe thoroughly ppreciated. All sang and acted their pans to perfection. Surprise was depicted on many faces at the ability of Major Buford as an actor. Many were the expressions of en- couragementjjiven to all. Gladys and Edna I'cairs touched all hearts with their little motion song. Olla Johnson gave us "The Christmas Tree" and Roy Bryant "Just Be fore Christmas." Both were first class. Miss Mary Buford has es tablished her reputation forever as one oi our best pianists by render ing so perfectly the solo, "The FbwerSong." Robert Emmet's plea for vindication, given by Mr. Center, was a rich treat. We want to hear him again. Cecil Clay, a tiny tot, with her childish innocence of manner, sang and acted the baby song in a way that brought forth great applause. The cantata, "The Ten Virgins," with its many lessons of divine truth, impressed upon all that there is a "too late" for everything. The five wise, dressed in flowing white robes, hair falling over their shoulders, carry ing lights in the darkness, present ed a very pretty view while singing and moving upon the stage. The five foolish, dressed in dark robes, with falling hair and unlighted lamps, made a sad picture of pro crastination, negligence and indif ference. As they approached the close of the last verse they assumed attitudes of entreaty and dispair. Kneeling upon the stage when the colored lights were burning in the darkness the effect was striking. The tableau was impressive. Alfred Lane recited "Merry Christmass" in an entertaining way. Richard Anderson in a clear voice spoke "Tommy's Lament." Messrs. Brown and Towner sand witched in some soul stirring violin solos with piano accompaniment. The choir done their part. After the distri bution of treats andrefreshments Major Buford addressed the people. His remarks were very interesting as he summed up thej work of the school and reviewed its work in the past calling our attentions to the prominent positions occupied by those who had started in Siletz. A tableau entitled "Good Night" closed the exercises. Three angels hovering over a household scene where three little tots were in the attitude of prayer, another engaged asleep on its mother's lap aU com bined to make it one ot the most beautiful and thrilling tableaus of the evening. Praise was given in every form imaginable. May we live to enjoy many returns of the day in remembrance of Him who remembered us. Santa Claus was a number all by himself, coming unexpectedjdovvn a chimney pre pared for him, he rang the bell, landed on the stage and commenced business at once, throwing popcorn balls at the audience 'and '- .dealing out presents with a lavish hand. It created great merriment among the children. W. H. Brown offici ated in that capacity. , Pastor. yaquinaitems. L. J. Deffenbacher's children are still very sick. The password: What did you get for Christmas? Miss Sadie Dixan came home to spend Christmas with her sister, Mrs. A. S. Casteel. Miss 'Cora Litchfield came in Saturday to spend the holidays with her brother and sister. George Hyndman, a nephew of D. P. Blue, arrived Saturday from Montana. He is very much pleased with the bay. Another family of emigrants came in the other night from north ern Minnesota. They occupy the Pattee cottage. We are all pleased to see Lloyd Pruelt's happy face, and hope he will enjoy his brief visit among his VaqniiKi friends. As a marksman little Claude Toner can't be beaten. He was seen to kill an owl by starlight. Bogardus isn't in it. Mr. Fairweather of Yamhill came in last week with his family and is settled in the Stratford cottage. Is it any surprise that we have had sunshine ever since? Robbie Roweis home from Soda ville having a good time with the boys. He thinks vacation rather short. His friends were pleased to meet -him and to see him looking so well. Yes, we had a Christmas tree a great big tree and the many dolls, bonks, toys and lots of apples made all the little people happy. The ladies deserve great credit as deco rators. We never saw the church look as beautiful. The program was good. Vern Blue carried off the palm as an orator. Jerry. - At Cost. Owing to circumstances occa sioned by the fire, I have decided to close out my stock of millinery, etc., at cost. The stock sustained no damage whatever, and my loss of profit is your gain.
