Gaudet, Mrs. H. Kinsman, Mr. B. bush, Mr. D. McKnight, Mr. b. Rogers, and Mrs. A. Hosevear and our tidy custo- dians.

The children's story was introduced by reference to the iovely decorations, which in- cidently included two pretty, glowing green candles placed in the Communion Table holders and lighted by Diane Werry. Our minister continued to tell that the decorations con- tained symbois of Christmas, one of whicb is the Poinsettia' which grows everywhere. in tropical areas and one of its legends is that of a sad little girl who had no gift to offer but on an Angels advice gave some roaadside shrubs, with love, which were transformed into beautiful Poinsettias. The sermon bad an unusuai yet a most apt titie "The Absurdity of Christmas". Our minister's explanation included the fable of Rip Van Winkie and a poem 'When Winter, Comes' to further illustrate the meaning of bis words. He elucidated each p art of the story of the first Ch ris tmas in Bethlehem as written by Luke with many co nditions and problems then, similar to ours today, e.g. war, strikes, equity for both sides, disease, world pro- blems, etc. As the shepherds experienced a miracle, fear and good news so we, too, can follow their example in rever- ence and recapture hope and see the same scene of a little child who brings new life. The Sr. Choir and Dîrector completed the festive decor as tbey were in seasonably suitable adornment and sang two' delightful anthems "AX Chiid of Hope"' and "Emman- ueli" which încluded a pleasing alto solo by Joyce Chambers. In the mae section two were absent and one, we know, had flown to bask in the California sunshine with one of bis sisters and brotber-in-law. Under the cboir's and organ- ist's assistance the congre- gation quickly learned our newest carol written by our minister viz: "0 Sing a Song of Christmas Cheer", This week will have the Christmas Eve Service for the combine d congrega tiotis in our church whiçh wiii be reported next week. 1We are saddened and griev- ing in deepest sympathy with Gary and ellie roenveld,, Michael and Nancy (our newly acquired neighbors a t the south end of our little village) over the great5loss of a dearly beloved mother and Srandmother in the sudden eath of the late Mrs. Groen- veld of Bowmanvilie.
