Chester MYRTLE STATION (Continued from front page) Dorothy and Phyllis McCartney; re- citation, "The Twenty Sixth", Frank Timms; chorus "Oh Come Little Chil- dren", by senior pupils; recitation, "Liberty's Token" Marjorie Vallieres, "The Orchestra", action song by five juniors, "The Gossips"; a short play by four girls, "The Riders of the Plains", a recitation by Audrey Grant. An Indian scene was very good. With no lights in the hall but a soft, red | glow on the stage, the Indians, wrap- ped in their blankets, sat in _semi- circles on the platform. A tee-pee stood slightly in the background and three old chiefs looked very picture- sque in their long, feathered head- dress. Indian legends were told by the pretty maidens, features of Indian |life were acted by the braves and maidens and "The cattle thief", was recited -by one of the daughters of a chief, Jean Duff. This recitation re- ceived a very fine applause from the audience. While the Indians were getting out of their blankets and feathers, five little juniors sang and acted "In Santa's Pack". The Na- tional Anthem was sung 'and then Santa Claus arrived--but walking! Yes. He had a breakdown up near Prospect and found it necessary to leave his heavy pack and come on foot the rest of the way. When he saw all the parcels and boxes under the tree, he knew that no one would miss his gifts that were back on the side of the road. With the help of some of the boys the tree was soon stripped of its load and Santa hurried away to make the necessary repairs so that he might continue on his journey. i The annual meeting of the Aux- iliary of the Woman's Missionary So- ciety was held in Mrs. O.-H. Downey's home, on Wednesday afternoon of last week. The worship service was built "around the theme "The World Church pays homage to Christ" and was in charge of Mrs. Gervan, assisted by Mrs. Hudgins, Mrs. Redman, Mrs, Downey and Mrs. Luery. The central thought of the service was this, that as those who came to the manger bowed in homage before the Christ Child, so the Christians of the world today bow before Him. He is the "radiating centre" of their comrade- ship. We form part of that world circle; and as members of that com- sincerity of our devotion to Christ by our loyalty to our other comrades, to Christ's" World Church and to His Kingdom, After a brief business period the "election of officers -took place, resulting as follows: President, Mrs. Gervan; Vice-President, Mrs, E. Redman; Sec, Mrs, C. Harrison; Treas., Mrs. D. Luery; Sec. Christian Stewardship and. Finance, Mrs. Hud-| gins; Temperance Sec., Mrs, Chisholm, Community Friendship, Sec.,, Mrs. A.

War Work Although this the season of good will, our thoughts naturally turn to war work which logically fall into four sections. : First -- Field Comforts for every branch of the service and for the men of the mercantile marine. Do not be misled by 'any rumors to the effect is not the case. Keep on knitting. Secorid--Help for the British people both here as our war guests and in England, The neetl for new clothing and blankets is greater than ever, ow- ing to the destruction of the homes and-all-belongings- of many- families. This is work in which everyone ¢an help. * | Third--Work for Overseas, There is a need for warm knitted garments for the women who, andlor Gomgtnment, control, are working in England. ! These women need stockings, sockees and sweaters to keep them warm in their arduous tasks, and blankets and quilts are needed for the shelters. Fourth --_ Books; magazines, etc.-- The men of the fighting forces are begging for books, magazines, games, ' playing cards and Victrola records. One lady in our town recently! gathered together over one hundred pounds of books, magazines, etc., ship- ped them_ herself to the navy at Halifax. * Gratitude Gratitude for aid has always been a British characteristic, and this has been abundantly demonstrated in the letter received, by Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire. Tons of new clothing sent to British ing . and money for the homeless, victims of evening bombing in Britain has been gratefully acknowledged in a letter from Lady Reading, Chair- man of the Women's Voluntary Ser- vice for Civil Defense in London. It reads: sad 'We have just received in London some parcels of clothing from your Order, and I' would like to thank you personally for the wonderful work which you gre doing to help the people over here, who are suffering so much dirtress from the war. =~ ; This practical ,expression of your sympathy is of the greatest value not only in dealing with homeless people, but also in encouraging the British women who are working night and day to help their less fortunae fel- lows," 4 iA : The Order is working in close con- junction with the other National Or- wife of our former Governor-General, represents the order in London, on the Joint 'Field Comforts Committee. -_r- We wish fo thank you for} Carnwith of Oshawa visited with Mrs, }~ Suggestions, 1941 | that supplies exceed the demand; such children in the first cgacuation cloths} PORT PERRY, ONT, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26th, 1940 ; RRIREERTL HAPPY NEW YEAF ; 4 0] = 104 | YOU ALL : Lake Scugog Lumber & Coal Co. { Phone 240w.
