Under the terrific convenor- ship of Maple's Mrs. Jennifer Large, this wide spread county gift project was an even more gratifying success than prev-‘ iously. Five hundred and forty‘ pieces of literature were sent out to acquaint communities of their opportunity to “Bring Joy to the World . . . of 21 Mental Patient". Boxes were placed in conspicJ uous spots in local stores and‘ everyone was invited to con- tribute a suitable. unwrapped gift from a variety of sugges- tions listed on the leaflet. This year the response from church and social groups was apprec- iated. Besides the hospital units in‘ York County, there are 13 gov- ernment approved homes where patients not quite ready to go to their own homes or face the outside world as ye. receive ‘wonderful care.

In this way they learn that the big outside world is not as bad as Special Birthday A belated but sincere birth- day greetimg goes out this week to Mrs. Annie Snider whose b' “(May was December 10.‘ Mrs. Snider invited her family and friends - about forty people in all - to Summit View for dinner. All the ladies present, from Miss Maggie KefEer down lto Nancy Snider aged one and a half, were delighted to re- ceive corsages from their hos- tess. Mrs. Snider’s family gave her a “grandmother bracelet" which she dearly wanted. A rather unique method was used ‘to present the git-t. The brace- let was placed inside a “cookie castle", made by daughters-in- law Jean and Evelyn Snider and assorted young helpers. Anyone who has the December issue of McCall’s magazine will know exactly what the cookie‘ castle is like. After the birth- day dinner, with cake of course, the group watched movies shown by Campbell Snider, some of which dated back to 1938. These were enjoyed greatly by the guests, many of whom were in the movies. Church News Zion Lutheran Church is presenting its Christmas pro- gram on Sunday, December 23 at 7.00 pm.

When a ‘tea party' is to be held all thel feminine attributes come to the fore and the ladies get all dressed up, drape themselves with jewelery, to the extreme and even give out with that time worn old feminine phrase when offered a second or third sweet. “I really shouldn't you know bu1t they are all just lovely!" The head of the White Cross Volunteers of York County is Mrs. Claire Moore, AV. 5-3553. Perhaps after the holiday rush you will have that urge to get out and be of service in 3 vol- untary capacity. Give Mrs. Moore a call â€" you couldn't ‘wish for a more worthwhile pro- 1ject. For the past weeks these v01! unteers have been busily sort- ing and wrapping YOUR gifts so they will be ready to be presented at a Christmas party, to a man or woman who needs to know that someone cares.

The junior The ist Maple Brownie Pack has been meeting on Friday nights at Brown Owl’s home. Since this pack is just in the process of getting organized, we expect to hear more of their activities as they grow. The l‘adies' auxiliary has been formed with a partial ex- ecutive elected, President (Mrs. D. C.) Phyllis McMillan; secret- treasurer, Mrs. Ar-t Mgore. Committee chairmen are Mrs. Joe Kefier, Mrs. Roly Kefier and Mrs. Earl Davidson. Rather than exchanging gifts this year, the members each brought a gift for York County mental patients. ‘ Home and School One of the nicest Christmas programs ever was held at Con- cord School last week. The jun- lior choir entertained with sev- eral carols. Directed by Mr. ‘Richardson who also accompa- nied them at the piano, the “‘little lads" gave a wonderful ‘perfomnan-ce. I predict a first place junior choir from Don- cord next spring in the Vau- ghan Township music festival. The audience (why isn’t it al- ways this crowded) sang sev- eral carols also, led by Mrs. Boggs and accompanied again by Mr. Richardson. Mr. McW'hirter’s class pre- sented two plays, “The Gift of the Magi” and “Packing”. The latter was a comedy, but un- fortunately the other play drew just about as many laughs. It was the tender story of the poor young couple, who, des- perate for something to give each other for Christmas, each sold their most precious pos- session, the wife’s hair sold to buy a watch chain - the hus- band's watch sold to buy combs for his wife's beautiful hair. Monica Jendraseh ran into dif- ficulties when, miter buying Ti- na Voigt‘s blonde tresses, she could barely cut through the separated and “flufied up” binv der twine of which the wig was made. Naturally she received a good round of applause when finished. After the plays, the special speaker for the evening. Rev. E.

First of Series Successful A most interesting series of programs is being arranged for presentation at St. Stephen‘s Anglican Church throughout the coming months. The first in this project, was performed on December 10, in‘ the form of an organ recital. Music of Bach, Handel, as well as modern composers comprised the program and was played by this series’ first guest, Fred Chapman who is the organist land choirmaster in this church. Considering the busy time of year, the committee felt most gratified by the response of the audience and the number who came out to enjoy and relax in a period of good music. Christmas services will be conducted by Rev. B. F. Andrew at St. Andrew's Pres- byterian Church, Keele St. Sowth. Sunday morning at 10. The Sunday school will participate in a white gift service. , congregation will meet in the Christian Education wing at 11:30 am. 7 The young people will be in charge of a candlelight service Christmas eve.
