How Sa aw prices start Lowrey Organ Time December 14,1967 -- mn News about sana The church was well filled at night when the younger S.S. members put on the annual pageant depicting the Christmas story. This has for many years been a worth- while project which will not be easily forgotten by the children. The fact that there are so many youngsters in the community makes it dif- ficult to assign important parts to all, so we really had hosts of angels and lots of shepherds. There were the usual odd accident such as forgetting to plug in a fire for the shepherds etc., but all did their best and the re- sult was good. We would like to especially congratu- late our young soloists. Credit this year goes to Mrs. W. Barr, Mrs. D. Crosier and Mrs. J. Hallett. This service was attended by many ex-Seagravers from Port Perry. Mrs. John Grov- es & daughter from Toronto, Mrs. Dennis Tobin, Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Fishley of Osh- awa and the grandoarents of the Carr children from Wood- ville. Friday night Dec. 15th is the date set for the annual Christmas Tree and concert.
