In Christmas Program SECTION 2 • PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALER Ring wood News 385-8037 653-9262 728-0343 «b°ve are a class of preschool students taught by Mrs. Birdie Bergdahl. f' The children's Christmas program of Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, 404 North Green street, McHenry, will be held Sunday, Dec. 11, at 4:30 p.m. Safety Tips For Holiday While decorating the home for the holidays, Com­ monwealth Edison company suggests a few safety tips to follow this season : Inspect last year's lighting sets and discard any with damaged plugs or cords. Use only lighting sets and extension cords carrying the Un­ derwriters' Lab (U.L.) label. Keep tinsel away from electrical plugs and sockets. Never decorate a metal tree with lights, rather use a floodlight perhaps in com­ bination with a color wheel to achieve the same festive effect. If you're decorating outside, check to make sure the lighting sets are approved for outdoor use. And always maintain a safe distance from overhead electric power lines or facilities, especilaly when using a metal ladder or tools. The holidays are sure to be safe and bright with these tips in mind The true meaning of Christmas will be depicted by the children, a live nativity scene will be enacted and a choir made up of fifth and sixth graders will provide the music. A birthday cake will help the pre-school children better understand the birth of the Christ Child, as they sing "Happy Birthday to Jesus". The seventh and eighth grade students will take part in the narration and production of the program as well as assist with ushering for the event. Mrs. Reggie Ericson and Mrs. Helen Hankins are coordinating the program for the school, whose superin­ tendent is Erv Staveteig.
