It is indeed nice to see the var-‘ ious Christmas decorations in use throughout the community. I am sure many of you have put a great deal of thought and effort into their construction and arrange- ment. I notice that some of the simplest and prettiest door decoraâ€" tions consist of a generous bunch of greens tied with a lhuge red bow. Some have added painted pine cones or small tree ornaments. Others are using colorful wreaths on their doors and windows while others have adorned the evergreens growing in front of their homes with colored electric lights to pro- claim the festive season to every traveller. Is it any wonder that the use of Christmas trees and ev- ergreens is considered the nicest of our twelve Christmas customs and that it has occupied a hallowed place in man’s affections for many centuries? The Christmas Festi- val is indeed one of man’s greatest blessings, coming as it does near the middle of the bleak and dreary winter, bringing with it all its col- or and Warmth and good cheer to brighten and, shorten for a time long winter months and to make us feel at peace with the world and with ourselves. Mnrk-Vaun W. I. The regular meeting on January 3, 1952, will be at the home of Mrs. A. T. Mathews, No. 7 east. Members are asked to bring the hand book. Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

STO'I'I‘S The pupils of King School had a lovely Christmas party on Friday before school closed until January 3. Each room was decorated for the season and there was a tree full of presents for each class. And then there were refreshments to make it a real party. The junior room had a wonderful treat, when they had hot dogs as well as eski- mo pies, chocolate milk and pop- corn. Everyone who could be there, braved the storm to get to school that morning.

Sunday School Concert When the Christmas entertain- ment of the Sunday School of the King City United Church was held the beginners class of 15 small boys and girls stole the show, even from Santa Claus who came later with presents for the 74 children of the Sunday School and extra presents for the visiting children in the audience. Under the direc- tion of Miss Gerrie McDonald, the little folk sat in a. semiâ€"circle and sang their songs illustrating them with cute finger 'plays to the de- light of the older ones present. The junior and senior pupils from King School, acompanied by their teacher, Miss Doris Patton, sang several Christmas Carols. Their soloist was Nancy Patton. Christmas stories and customs of four countries were read by Julia Bell and Joan Patton. A carol typical of each of these countries was sung by a choir of 25 senior pupils of the Sunday School, and it was all very nicely done. Eng- land was represented by the sing- ing of ‘Here we come a’wassailing.’ u Germany’s carol was “Oh Christmas Tree’. The carol from Poland was especially fine, ‘Infant Holy, Infant Lowly,’ and from France the choir chose to sing, ‘Bring a torch Jeanette, Isobella.’ For 40 minutes Mr. George Ar- ‘mitage showed films from the De- partment of Lands and Forests, suitable to the season, and then Santa Claus arrived, greeted with cheers from everyone. Rev. M. R. Jenkinson was the genial chairman for the entertainment. Gifts of Christmas candy and apples were sent to the children by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Green, Mr. and Mrs. Doc Gordon and Mr. Alfred Mc- Bride.
