ANNUAL THANGSGIVING SERVICES.

Following the usual custom, the churches of the city will give an entertainment at the Christian church Tuesday evening, Nov. 23. An offering of either money or provisions will be received at the door. As all know, the proceeds of this entertainment is to give a Thanksgiving dinner to the worthy in humble circumstances, of our city. Heretofore good, large offerings have been made for this noble and deserving work. May this year be not in the least behind former years, but rather go beyond them. “The poor ye have always with you ” Remember. Tuesday evening of next week, at the Christian church. A committee composed of the presidents of the Young People’s Societies of the various churches have this program in charge and they promise an entertainment well worth a substantial offering, aside from the object for which it goes.
