Today at 7.45 p. m., a literary and musical entertainment will be given in Sanders theatre, the proceeds of which will be devoted to the American church to be erected in Berlin. Professor Churchill of Andover will read and there will be music by the Harvard Glee and Banjo clubs. The cause is a philanthropic one, and all of the participants render their services gratuitously. The Berlin church has for its end the social, moral, and religious well-being of Americans who go to Berlin for travel, business, or study. The last named class is numerous, including students in the Berlin University and in the schools of art and music. Without an American church in Berlin, many of the Americans residing in that city are practically destitute of a religious home. A helpful organization has already existed for several years, but the rooms it occupies are inadequate and a suitable house can be built only by help from America. The testimony is unanimous that those who have the work in charge are helpful to young people studying in Berlin.

It is hoped there will be a large attendance at the entertainment, and that many who cannot attend will help the good cause by the purchase of tickets. It is needless to add that the entertainment is worthy for its own sake, aside from its philanthropic object. Tickets may be had at Sever's bookstore, Harvard square, and at the door. Seats 50 cents and $1.00.
