The story of the Nativity, told them by the Jesuit Fathers, was most beloved by the In- dians. Christians and non-Chris- tians. alike travelled great dis- tances at Christmas in the bitter cold, through deep snow and the 'Christmas In Song And Story' Is Theme For St. Gregory's CWL dense forests to pay homage to the divine Child. They built a grotto of bark in which they laid sweet grasses for a bed. At Mid- night Mass, which they attend- ed with great fervor and devo- tion, the Father placed a figure of the Infant on the bed and around it the Indians crowded in great excitement, with pray- ers and assurances that from then on He would be the Master of their tribes and they His faithful children. It was for these simple chil- dren of the forest that the famous Canadian martyr, Father Jean de Breboeuf, S.J., composed the first Christmas caro] sung in America, the love- ly "Jesous Akatonnia'" (Jesus Has Come), which was sung by Mrs. John Driscoll. The origin of the Christmas tree and of Santa Claus, the lusty singing of 'Jingle Bells", and the arrival of a jolly St. Nicholas (Mr. Ray Scott) with gifts for everyone, brought the story-telling to a close. Refresh- ments were served under the convenership of Mrs. Anthony Cebulski and Mrs. Andrew Mowat. A handsome Christmas cake, baked and donated by Mrs. George Copeland, centred the attractive table. Assisting were Mrs. Bruce LaForce, Mrs. Edward Martin, Mrs..Alex Biro, Mrs. George Fairhart, Mrs. Leo- pold Menard, Mrs. Bernard Shaw, and Mrs. Douglas Arm- stead. The Christmas tree and decorations were the work of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford. Harper. Mrs. Mangan thanked all who had assisted in making the eve- ning a success, Mrs. Boi 1ST SCOUT GROUP AUX.
