Special Christmas services were
held in St. Andrew's Presbyterian
Church, Wingham, on Sunday, Dec-
ember 23rd,, with Rev. Alexander
Nitntap in charge of both services
and special music under the leader-
ship of H. V. Fyne, organist and
choir leader,
Mr. Nimmo chose as his text for
the morning serivce, "And she
brought forth her firstborn Son, and
wrapped Him in swaddling clothes
and laid Him in a manger, because
there was no room for them in the
inn," In this present day, many
people of the world cannot find room
for Christ in their lives and it is par-
ticularly noticeable at Christmas time
when Christ is being crowded out of
Christmas by commercialism. Mrs.
Douglas Fry .sang the beautiful
French Carol, "Angels we have heard
on high." The anthem by the choir
was, "Glory to God in the Highest"
by Berridge.
In the evening the usual candle-
light service was held with music by
Junior and Senior choirs, The recent-
ly installed Carillons added greatly
to the effectiveness of the carols. The
text for this service was the Mission-A fire escape has been erected on ary message "Fear not, for behold, I
