YVP think that u“ who were present at the Band of Hope entertainment on ChriQt- mun night, will agree with u: in saying that there are very few more pleasing sights to be Seen than that which urwted the audi- once when the curtains were draw] back on that occasion. The happy, smiling faces of the children in their gay ap are], Standing in order and eager to commence the exer- cises, made one “wish to be agnin a child." The entertainment from hnginning to end was delightful, and showed much natural ahiiity on the part of the youthful perform- ers, as we]! as careful training by {hone in charge. At the close of the cnnr'm-t‘ Santa Claus made his appearance. and the vener- able gentleman. with his flowing white been], smiii g face, and bu»:th of cundins. was heartily welcomed by old and young. We Wish our Band of Hope success in thvir work and hope to find their Chrintmua concert an annual event in our village. Markham Council.
