The Grade Mothers and other interested parents are help ing with costumes so that this year’s concert promises to be better than ever. The children are putting their best into varied numbers — contatta, choruses, drills and skits so we hope to see those people in the audience most important to the children —Exeter’s parents. The Service Clubs of Exeter—Lions, Legion and Kinsmen are going all out this Chrismas to give the Child ren of Exeter and vicinity a sea sonal treat. They are sponsoring a theatre party to be held in the Lyric Theatre, Tuesday afternoon December 19. Plans are under way to have the E.D.H.S. Bugle Band lead the parade, followed by floats of Service Clubs and commercial enterprises. Latest reports are that Santa will be able to attend and since Exeter can boast of an airport as a neighbour the children won’t have to worry “if it doesn’t snow Christmas.” The Stratford Kinsmen Club is giving the children of the dis trict a chance to earn some spare Chrismas money and most important of all a chance to boost the present safety cam paign. They are paying cold cash for hot safety slogans—one dol lar for every entry accepted and published in the Safety Sam Column in the Stratford Beacon Herald. The staff have decided to make “Gifts for Greece Day” Monday December 18. The child ren are asked to bring their par cels wrapped and labelled extern ally as to the age of child the garment would fit We had two admissions and one transfer this week, John Brown to Grade 3 and David, his brother to Grade 5. They came from Centralia and Sharon Knapp, Grade 3 moved to the Airport. One of the kindergarten child ren brought a Christmas story to class about a litle boy who visit ed Santa at a department store and found him coughing and sneezing with one of those pre valent colds. Instead of the usual lunch of pie and milk little “Joe” decided to leave some of Dad dy’s cold pills, chest rub, his warm sweater and the hot water bottle out where Santa would find them. Joe came down Christ mas morning,’ - greatly relieved to find that the pills, sweater and hot watei' bottie were gone and the lid was off the chest rub —Now he new Santa would feel better and would have been able to finish his trip. Tommy Eller- ington wasn’t so relieved how ever-—his first reaction to the story was, “What do you think his Dad said when he couldn’t find his sweater?” I wonder if Tommy ever heard of the $64 Question?
