It is impossible to send personal Greetings to all our Scugog friends who are interested in the work we do, so we take this opportunity to wish "you one and all a very Happy Christ- mas, and a wonderful New Year. It is lovely that so many of you have remembered us, and we do appreciate your interest and your kind wishes. This will be the week for Christmas Concerts, with a Party for the "Head" School on Wednesday evening; a Party for the "Centre" School on Thursday afternoon, and a Concert at Prospect in the evening, and a Con- cert at Manchester on Friday evening Sunday will be Christmas Sunday when we will have special music, and a message of hope. - We know that there will be a wonderful response, and that our three Churches will be filled. It just wouldn't_ be Christmas if Christ were left out. So much is being written about putting Christ back into Christmas, as though onc could take Hint out at will, and put Him back. He is right in it friends. and always will be. Even though only a few shepherds and wisemen knew that the Christ had come on that first Christmas, there He was. Never forget when life seems to bé cluttered up with trivial things, Ged _ gave us Jesus not for a day, but for keeps. There is a wealth of love and goodwill going forth, even though they may not be making the headlines; but so many are engaged in portray- ing the workings of crime and hate, that they are not always conscious of "the good that is here. Let us have more and more of HOPE. We are the children _of- God, and-at this Season His great Love surrounds us, and en- velopes us. There is a song of joy for everyone, if only we would listen for it. If only we would prepare our hearts for His coming. There is hap- piness for the whole world, and peace at last. We invite all within our area to come and worship with us on Sunday." Come and share your joys with us; for in spite of everything, God's love is continually flowing earthward to us. We are glad to report that our new heating system at Manchester has been _duly_installed, and we had the benefit of it last Sunday, when there was a very good congregation. We are happy that many children are at- tending. There is room for many more, and now that our Auditorium is Carol Aird and Hilda Hoftsee of Man- chester; and to Sandra Greenwood of Prospect. Scugog Twenty-two ladies met at the home of Helen Redman on the evening of Wednesday, Dec. 6, for the Christmas meeting of the Head W.A. We were pleased to have our new neighbour, Mrs. Whitters, from the Fulford place as well as Mrs. Middleton, Mrs, Earl Heayn, Mrs. T. Redman, Mrs. East- man, and Reta Rodman. The) program was. typically of a Christmas nature. Following the carol and Scripture reading of the Holy- birth, Myrtle Manns read an article on the origin of the holly, mistletoe, and Christmas tree. The roll call was very interesting and instructive as various Christmas customs of other lands were read. Mrs. T. Redman favoured us with another of her clever "poems entitled, "The Christmas Season". Then there was a variety of serious and amusing «readings by Leona with "I Found Christmas", by Joyce with "The Night Before Christmas" and by Reta Reader with the legend of "The Runaway Angel". Following Clara Whitter's piano number, Reta Wilson presented her favourite reading "I Won't Shop Early for Christmas". Bonnie gave a contest on the Christ- mas Story, which was won. by Leona Barry. A committee was selected to make plans for the Head Community Christ- mas party, and another committee to arrange the Mystery Sister Supper in January. N Betty Reader, as chairman of the nominating committee presented the 'new slate of officers for the new or- ganization of 1962. The following were thereby accepted and informed of the Inaugural Service on Jan. 7. President-- Marie.

Finally, the new President, Marie expressed words of thanks for our confidence in her and with a few words of appreciation to the former President, Myrtle Manns, presented her with a lovely versatile dish of Italian pottery. Myrtle then fittingly thanked the group and Marle closed real for about four days between Christmas and New Year. There will be a celebration of Holy Communion on New Years Day.
