ANNUAL CHARITY ENTERTAINMENT

Program For This Tuesday Evening’s Gathering at. the Presbyterian Church—Your Help Needed. The annual before Thanksgiving entertainment for the benefit of the c arity fund and for the purpose of providing a goad Thanksgiving diun. r for every family in Rensselaer t..at might otherwise fail to have one is to be held at the Presbyterian c lurch this Tuesday evening. The -program is published herewith. 'J lie ladies in charge of this entertainment, who also give heed to the needs of the poor of this city throughout the winter, hope that the offering will be greater than ever before. There will be about thirty chickens needed. It is desirous that these will be donated, as it takes so much of the cash to buy them in case they are not given. Any fairly well-to-do family can spare a chicken to help make some less fortunate family happy on Thanksgiving day. Other things will be welcomed. Flour apd potatoes are needed as well as chickens. Mrs. C. A. Roberts, Mrs. A. P. Burton or Mrs. Delos Thompson will be pleased to suggest to you things that will help the most. Make the silver offering liberal this year. The ladies say that besides the donations of 'things to eat, the cash offering on that night should be at least SIOO. Let every person who can attend the entertainment and give with as much liberality as possible. The program follows: Scripture Reading. Player Rev.
