It was in refer- ence to a tiny antiquated white church, no longer in use, bleak and so desolate to the eye. The poem brought to mind the little white church in Caesarea. It matters not whether a church, regard- less of age or condition, is in for services, etc. These thoughtful - people hold ser- vices every Sunday and what is entitled the 'young peoples hour'. Last week 49 youngsters attended . this 'hour. In kéeping with the spirit of Christmas and its true meaning, a Christmas concert is planned for Dec. 15th at 7 p,m.
