Jéfi'erson School Christmas Party Under the capable direction of Miss Audrey Leary and Mr. Geo. Green ,the children of both the junior and senior rooms demon- strated in song. recitations and plays the message of Christmas. One grandmother who attended said. “Those children all seem to realize that Christmas means think- ing of others", and that seemec to be the theme running throughout the children’s concert: The school was decorated beau- tifully for the event, with tall Christmas trees in each of the rooms trimmed by the youngsters themselves and the programme was held in the juniors' room. The school trustees. Dickson Miller, 'John Passmore and Norm- an Burnett gave their hearty sup- port to the children's efiorts as us- ual and commended them for pro- viding such an entertaining after- noon. Mr. Miller, as master of cere- monies. welcomed the "audience" and said how happy an occasion it .was to see so many parents, bro- thers. sisters and relatives out as it showed their interest in the chi!- dreh, who love to have them pres- ent ‘at their parties. Florene Pridham then extended Christmas greetings to all, after which Grades 1, 2 and 3 with let- ters and verse spelled out the joy- ous greetings and recited each let- ter's significant meaning. Four of the senior girls enacted “Our Dollies"; followed by the jun- ior children’s play, “Santa‘s Christ- mas Presents”, in which the child- ren decided this year Santa should have a party himself. Nancy Passmore, as Mother Goose, introduced all her story- book children to Santa Claus and each child recited a verse and ten- dered a present. “Overheard At Christmas" was next, a recitation by Colin Dick; after which Grades 1 and 2 sang an illustrated story telling “Why We Get Up Early Christmas Morn- mg". The next play by the seniors. called “Christmas Gifts” was all about the Christmas Spirit of giv- ing to others; especially those less fortunate than themselves. After the Juniors had sung Mer- ry Christmas Day, the senior boys put on an hilarious skit entitled “Santa Meets an Emergency”. The next item was a recitation by Jimmy Barrow and he describ- ed the many shopping problems handled by Santa. Following Gert Norgard's reci- tation, “Bethlehem’s Star", Grades 3 and 4 sang a lovely group of wellâ€"known carols with readings from the Bible story by Nancy ‘Pavssmore..As each song commenc- ed different children from the group of carollers pinned a pic- ture on a screen in the background, until the whole Christmas story, Bethlehem, the wise men, the shep- herds, etc., was revealed as a pic- ture to the audience. This was a very fine contribution to the pro- gramme. In the hext play Frankie Prid~ ham discovered, “It is no fun doâ€" ing just as I please". The senior girls then performed the Christmas-breakfast scene from Little Women in a very pleasing style. One of the points of interest in this nicely balanced and wellâ€"ren- dered program was the fact that all the.children attending Jeffer- son schbol took some part in the concert and we commend the tea- chers for the time and thought they put into the afternoon's suc- cess. John Passmore Jr‘ was next with a recitation entitled “Paul Henry John Brown", after which Wayne Meikel told the story of “The Mer- ry Christmas Bells." The senior room closed the pro- gram with “A letter to Santa." St. John's Sunday School had its annual Christmas party on Mon- day of last week with around 150 attending in spite of the foggy night. Each school-child had received the name of a schoolmate, a week or so before the big day, and at the close of the party these were distributed to the children by San- ta. There were so many gifts San- ta called on Mr. Miller, Mr. Bur nett and Mr. Tim Oakley to assist him in his work. Another helper, though he was not present. was Mr. Karl Mocsary of the Summit Golf Club who very kindly donated 24 pounds of Christmas candies for the children's party. The or- anges and bags of candy were given to each child present. Sunday School Concert The children of the Sunday school. under the direction of Miss M. Strachan and the rector, Rev. D.C.H. Michell, put on a play en- titled “How We Got Our Bible”. Even the primary class took part with each of the little ones wear- ing a banner on which was writ ten the name of one of the book: of the Bible. Maurice Beynon recited, follow- lng which the film "Alice in Won- derland" was shown. After a sing-song of carols with everyone taking part, Santa Claus arrived and all those who had tak- en part in the play received a gift of a Bible. All the children present received bags of candies and ice- cream sticks to bring to a close a happy Christmas party. Orange Home Parties ' The children of the LTB & 0 Home have been having a gay and happy whirl of Christmas parties during the past two weeks and there are further treats in store for them. Gormley The Matron, Mrs. S. Freethy, has ELGIN MILLS - JEFFERSON NEWS Ian D. Grant CARPENTER CABINET MAKER 7 Stouflville 66304 CORRESPONDENT: MR8. H. G. ROBERTSON Brookside Road, Telephone TUmer 4-2334 received with “motherly” prim many compliments on the deport ment of her “children” and since this is the time of the year for ex- tending compliments of the season. etc.. it seems something should be said by all those interested in the good work being carried on day after day at the Orange Home. So. to you Mrs. Freethy and to your staff who bring so much love and companionship into the lives of your young charges 365 days in the year. may 1953 be a very happy year. On Christmas day the children had not only the excitement of a visit from Santa Claus himself but Santa arrived with all his parcels and gifts riding right up to the door of the home on the Richmond Hill fire truck. Among those who entertained the children and staff during Christ- mas week were: the Lions Club of Richmond/Hill, who called in their cars and took their young charges to and from a delightful party. The Hy-Y also shared in the Christmas fun with a party} at the Y in Tor- onto. ' The "ofiice-party" put on by Prudential of Toronto this year was a party on the morning of the 24th for the Orange Home children with a bountiful Christmas lunch and presents for all. This week. the day after New Year’s the Kiwanis Club is taking all the children to Toronto to see the stage-play, Peter Pan. Christmas At Home The nicest gift the Jernigan family could receive was the ar- rival of Cpl. Lee Jernigan on Dec. 22, with a 25 day leave. Dee will be at his Jefierson home until Jan. 13, and is having a wonderful time seeing all his old friends and vis- iting here and there with his fam- ily.

Dance The next dance to be held by the Jefferson School Community Club will be on January 9. We hope there will be some bridge- players out that night as we are going to make an effort to attend and our dancing days are post- poned for a while. However, with the Carson Whalens “calling-off” there’s bound to be a good crowd of dancers on hand for the first dance of the New Year. Summit View News ‘ The staff of the Summit View Restaurant played host to the staff of the ThornView restaurant Mon- day, December 15, when 50 of the members attended the best annual Christmas party they’ve had yet.

The annual Christmas party for Skyline Farms was held at Summit View a week ago, when a crowd of 85 took over th ebanquet room for a very happy evening. Everything was supplied by the staff. which meant Mr. and Mrs. Folllott were able to enjoy all the fun of the evening with them.

The beautiful decorations in the church, which everyone admired, were arranged entirely by the Young People themselves. Hearty thanks was extended to the ladies who prepared such a de- licious supper. Personals On Friday, December 19. the pupils held a joint Christmas par- ty in the Senior Room. The Junior Room pet-formed recitations and drills. the Intermediate Room pre- sented three short plays and the Senior Room staged a play. The children exchanged gifts and a good time was had by all. They were sorry that they were unable to invite their parents due to very limited space. The children of the Sunday School under the direction of Miss Jane Dingle of the Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, then enacted the Nativity Scene. The sale of Christmas cards and trimming was a very successful en- terprise. The children made at least $100 which can be used for sports equipment, etc. "Elmer" the Safety Elephant is still flying high atop the flag-pole and it is hoped the children will be extra cautious on the road dur- ing their vacation period, so that he may remain there for the rest of the school year.
