While the elders were enjoying them- selves at this Christmas party. the children were being enter- tained at the Orange Home. About 80 children all told were held spellbound and open-mouth- ed in amazement at the tricks and magic performed for them by John Giordmaine. the famous magician from Toronto. For approximately one hour the ma- gician made things appear and disappear in an unnatural man- ner calculated to bewilder more than the children.

It was pointed out that the Hall committee was experâ€" iencing difliculty with finances and a general increase in'hall rentals was considered. Final.
