A kettle was swung over the campfire and in the firelight eighteen boys were circled around and sang campfire songs. Wallie Duggan sang ers of the Junior Classes slang a Motion Song “Up on the housetop reindeer pause” which was well ren- dered. A harmonica band from Mr. Well’s class of young men contrib- uted three Christmas numbers very acceptably. a solo to his own accompaniment on the guitar. In closing the boys sang a verse of “Abide with me.” Miss Bessie Brett’s class of girls took part in a “Christmas Star Drill” which was very pretty. They also sang a chorus in keeping with the drill. The closing number, a cantata en-l titled “A Christmas Waif,” which, represented the Christmas story in tableau and. song. The setting of' the story was in Grandpa Anderson’si home on Christmas Eve, with their “bairns” all around the old roof tree to celebrate Christmas Day. The carollers arrive and sing at the vsn'n- dow. The little grand children, five in number, sing two Christmas carols before they go to bed. They hang up their stockings in anticipation of Santa’s visit. After all retire, a lit- tle waif wanders into the home. It is warm and as he is very scantily clad and cold he decides to remain for the night and go away before the folk get up in the morning. He sees the Christmas parcels and it reminds him of Christmas time in his own home before his mother and daddy died. He Wishes that his mother was here to kiss him good night and tell him the Christmas story as she used to. He curls up on the mat in front of the fireplace and falls fast asleep. While he sleeps the Spirit of Dreams comes slowly in and sings. Sheicalls her Dream Fairies who circle around her and as the circle around little Tim (the waif). They wave their wands over his sleeping form and sing the “Fairy Chorus.” They afterwards kneel, looking up at the‘ Spirit of Dreams. She waves her wand toward the exit and all leave; the platform. Miss Cora Good readi the story of “The First Christmas” and she read there were four beaut- iful tableaus. First was “The Shep- herds,” then’ “The Angel who ap- peared to the Shepherds.” She sang “Fear not for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy.” Then a multitude of angels appeared sing- ing “Glory to God in the Highest.” During the tableau of “Mary and Joseph and the Manger” little Violet Rochester in a kneeling position at Richmond Hill the manger sang very sweetly “Lit-l tle Baby in the Manger I love you.” When the Christmas story ended lit- tle Tim awakens with the sound of merriment and the cry of “Merry Christmas.” They find little Tim in the living room and after hearing his story they decide to adopt the little orphan as one of their own, and share with him their home. The children welcome him warmly and offer him their stockings filled with gifts and decide “Now indeed shall we have a Merry Christmas.” The closing chorus included all who took part in the cantata. The caste for the can- tata follows: Grandpa Anderson Mr. Gifford Summers; Grandma An- derson, Miss Gladys Sutterby; John Anderson, Mr. J. 0. McCrimmon; Mrs John Anderson, Mrs. Glen Shaw; Paul Duncan, Mr. Geo.

Mrs. Halbert was pianist for the evening. Santa Claus arrived at the close of the pro- gram and in his usual genial way won the hearts of the little ones and distributed the gifts off the two Christmas Trees. Dr. Conboy was special speaker at the annual Sunday School anniver- sary and White Gift service last Sun- day morning in the Newtonbrook United Church. Dr. Conboy is super- intendent of Westmorland United Church Sunday School in Toronto and has the largest attendance of any Sunday School in Canada. He broadcasts every Sunday at. 4:30 p. m. over C.K.N.C. He gave a very helpful address and held the atten- tion of the children'to the last. A recitation “The Christmas Red Rid- ing Hood” was given by Violet Roch- ester; There was a childrens choir of 30 voices and a special number (a Christmas Carol) was rendered by five junior S. S. scholars, unaccom- panied. The Pastor, Rev. A. H. Hal- bert, had charge of the evening ser- vice. A male quartette sang “Come unto me” very acceptably. There will bespecial Christmas services next Sunday. At the morn- ing service the choir will sing Christmas anthems. There will be Carol singing at the evening service. This will be followed by a sacred Christmas cantata. This is to be re- peated on Sunday evening by special request.

VAUGHAN NOMINATIONS The annual nominations for Vaugh- an Township will be held in the Town ship’ Hall, Vellore, Friday afternoon, Dec. 22. This is in accordance with the statutes which provide that when the last Monday falls on Christmas day the nominations shall be held on the preceding Friday. Simple recipe for telling right from Wrong: ask yourself, “Would I be willing for my parents to have done it?” Give the devil his- due. The depresâ€" sion has also deprived us of a lot of things which we were better off without. ' Agincour’q was shocked learn of the sudden death of Mr. John Lockie Paterson on Friday evening, Dec. 15th While playing a game of checkers with an intimate friend, Rev. A. Mc D. Haig, Mr. Paterson was stricken and passed away immediately.

Mr. Paterson will be missed much in Agincourt, especially in church clrcles and on the bowling green. He was afi advocate of good clean sport. There survive his widow, Mary Armstrong- Paterson, one sister, Mrs. Walter Hood, and one brother, Rob- ert of Agincourt. Three brothers, William, Thomas G. and James L., predeceased him. The funeral service was held on Monday afternoon in Knox United Church, where the deceased had been an active member. Rev. W. D. Mc- Donald officiated, assisted by Revs. Toronto.

I think of one instanCe of which I heard when but a “Wee Laddie.” - A dying woman could not bear the idea of being laid to rest Within the never ending hum of the second city, “Glasgow.” Turning to her husband who sat beside her bed, she said: “I’ve been a guid wife to ye John, have I no’?” “0h weel, middling, middling,” said John, grudgingly. “John, ” she continued, “Promise me that I shall be buried in the auld kirkyard at Strathavon. I couldna’ rest in peace amang a’ the reek an’ noise of Glasgow.” “A weel, Jenny, my wumman,” said John cheerfully, We’ll just try ye in the Gorbals kirk- yaird first, Syne, if ye dinna rest there in peace an’ quiet, I hae ye lift- ed an’ bury ye in Strathavon.” James MacGregorâ€"The Glen Warbler Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Elliott enter- tained Knox Presbyterian Young People’s Society on Thursday evening Considering the inclemency of the weather, there was a good number present. The Bible reading was given by Will Gardner and Miss Agnes David- son read the club paper “The Oracle” well named, because it really does speak with unfailing wisdom, inspir- ation and authority. The address of the evening, antic- ipated with keen interest, was given by Mr. M. M. Gibson. His subject “Nature” was brimful of valuable in- formation and‘ much appreciated. Miss Nellie Clark read a. splendid paper on “Predestination.” Subsequent to the devotional ex- ercises and program, there was heaps of fun at games, then a choice lunch served by Mrs. Elliott. The sincere appreciation and thanks of the society were expressed to Mr. and Mrs. Elliott and family, for their hospitality and continued interest in Lhe welfare of the Young People’s Society.
