Morton, the affable chairman, announced the impending arrivai of Santa Claus and soon the joily gentleman appeared, suf!ering !rom loss of voice apparently, but with undiminished energy and generosity. He brought with hirn a pientiful supply .o! candy, oranges, etc., which he prevailedi upon Mr. Morton to help him hand out to the eagerly expect- ant children. , A!ter ail the candy had been distributed to each blissful little recipient, audience and children filed into the Church auditorium to witness an inspiring and irn- pressive presentation o! "The Nativity" by the classes o! Mrs. A. E.- Mellow and Miss E. M. Blackburn witb the aid of numer- ous other members o! the Sunday School, choir and Y.P.U. This hply Christmas story, presented under the expert guidance and direction o! Mr. Laurence Morton, and enacted by candleligbt with a high degree o! sanctity and solem'nity by the performers, proved to be somewhat o! a sur- prise in that it far surpassed the expectations o! the audience and perhaps even the performers. We can only hope that it may be re- peated for the benefit o! those who were unable to attend due to illness and home obligations, as well as those who would like to see and hear it a second time. AUl those present joined in heart!elt approbation and appre- ciation o! the splendid cast on their beautiful portrayal, o! The Nativity, especialy Laurence Morton as director and organist, Pauline Deline as Mary, Neil Britton as Joseph, Donald Jose as Zacharias, Margaret Hockin as the Angel Gabriel, Tracy Embly, Maurice Pedwell, Francis Jose as shepherds, Mary Toms as the Angel o! the Lord, Glenn Ailin, Bob AllUn and Stanley Allin as the Tbree Wise Men; also Caro- line Friedlander, Jean T o m s, Ruth Allin, Claire Allin, Marjorie Toms, Mary Hagerman and Mary Margaret Bonathan comprismng the Heaveniy Host, and the choir who contributed greatiy to the success o! the performance by their fine rendition o! the many Christmas ca1rols and chants. Due praîse and tribute are also tendered to Margaret Ash who as "The Reader" intonated the in- tervening passages o! Scripture reverentiy and lucidly; to Mrs. J. T. Brown who accompanied ber in the singing o! the chant "How Beautiful Upon the Mountains;" also to Mrs. Pervical Hare as dresser and costumer, to Mr. A.- O. Parker as spotiight operator, to Rev. R. E. Morton for bis general assistance and supervision andi to ail who helped in providing cos- urnes, scenery and lighting e!- Rcts, and in changing scenery.

He gets you in a corner Just as you are going to press, And he threatens you and bhounds you And is full o! nastiness. You cannot calm or soothe him, Pass it off as ail in fun; He demands a ful retraction And he wants it on page one! He eyes you like a spider That bas caught you in its mesh, For the man wbo is misquoted Always wants bis pound o! flesb. It matters not how often In a manner Most discreet, You have bolstered up his English, Sifted cha!! fromn out the wbeat; Just you make one single error And f ar better you had died, For the man who is misquoted Aims to have your worthless bide. So you'd better caîl the press room, Open Up page one agate, And in abject words and phrases Seek your error to explain; Oh, there is no use in pieadteg, Stalling off, or acting dumb, For the man who is misquoted Knows be's got you 'neath his thumb. -H. Reginald Hardy. Galrage Operators Eîect New Officers A truly representative and en- thusiastic meeting o! the mem- bers o!
