A committec decorated the church most beautifully. Besides the evergreens and trees, large candles were placed in each window. Just before the service started, the server lighted these and the electric lights were turned off. Carols were sung in the cloister. The effect was most impressive. Lights came on as the processional, "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing," was sung by the large choir. The regular communion serv- ice followed with most beautiful music and a fine sermon. The perfect joy and satisfaction resulting in a Christmas begun in this manner 'lasts throughout the year in a most helpful, uphfting way. The church was filled.
