Christmias In Arctie Th highlight of the evening for tL adults was an addres.i VIGOR SERVICE OIL by Mrs. Nicholson. She told of her experience in 1928, her first Christmas in the Arctic. Mrs. Nicholson, then Miss Hirst, accompanied by Rev. Sherman Shepherd and sister, Miss P. Shepherd from Fredericton, N. B. and Miss Bessie Quirt, Or- illia, had travelled up the Mac- kenzie river 2,000 miles north of Edmonton to Aklivik. Rev. and Mrs. Harcourt were just preparing to leave when they arrived. Fromn Aklavik they travelled 110 miles north west on tha Arctic Coast to Shingle Point, a narrow strip of land less than a quarter mile wide, stretching eut two miles into the ocean. The only buildings were a few log buildings formerly used by the Hudson Bay Co., and built of drift wood. Hore the party with the aid of an Eskimo interpreter found- ed a school. The interpreter at that time was working for the Hudson Bay Co. but later be- came Rev. T. Umouk. The only fuel was drift wood which had to be dug from the snow and dried in the. oven. Frozen Caribou Bishop Fleming had told themn that when the parents came to visit their children at Christmas they would be ex- pected to give themn a good meal. But when that time came thcy had no meat of any kind, With the advice of the inter- preter they prepared large ket- tles of beans. However, the evening before Christmas, three Eskimos appeared at their door with a huge quarter of caribou frozen like a rock. The ladies spent the night chopping up the frozen mneat, but felt repaid for their work next evening when they saw their guests greatly enjoying the boiled caribou and heans. The children knew nothing of Christmas as we do, or San- ta Claus, and had neyer seen a doll until they each received one that day. They felt Santas cotton coat and wondered whv he did not freeze. They peered Co. STATION Two miles North of Newcastle on Highway No. 35 PHONE 3881, NEWCASTLE VIGOR STANDARD GASOLINE VIGOR HIGH TEST GASOUINE 4110 GaL Tax [ne. Gal. Tai Lue.

Mrs. Nicholson descràbed the Eskimo as having extra good eye sight, being able to see dog teams coming miles away, when the missionaries* could scarcely discern it with spy glasses. Mrs. Nicholson spent four years at Shingle Point. Bale For Children The President Mrs. Lorne Thompson again took the char for the business.
