PAUL'S SERVICES On Christmas Eve the people of St. Paul's Church gathered at eleven o'clock to sing the traditional Christ- mas hymns and carols. As an interlude in the singing the rector pictured, in story form, what conditions would be like if Jesus had not been born. At eleven-thirty the traditional Christmas Eve Communion began with the choir singing most of the Commu- nion Office unaccompanied, Opening his Christmas message with the legend of the evergreen tree, the Rev. H. L, Parker pointed out the contrast be- tween a Christmas tree without its de- corations and one that has been dec- orated with lights and other decora- tions. The barren evergreen according to the legend reminds us of our ainful- !nese. But our lives are changed and become a thing of beauty • when we find the Christ, born at Bethlehem, to be the Saviour of the world. Christmas morning parishioners in the hospital received their Christmas Communion prior to having breakfast. At nine o'clock a Quiet Communion was held in the Church for those un- able to attend the Christmas Eve services. Last Sunday the Christmas theme dominated the service of Holy Com- munion at eight-thirty and the arvice of morning prayer broadcast over CKNX at eleven o'clock. The choir, under the direction of William Con- nell Jr., sang the Christmas anthem to the setting written in the eighteen- th century by Dr, P. Hayes. The offer- tory anthem was "Silent Night, Holy Night" written by Franz Gruber and arranged by Guthrie Foote. Taking as his text "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good- will" the rector pointed out how we must give glory to God for coming into the world at a specific time in history to bring hope and peace to thousands, This fact of history is ig- nored by many today who look upon Christmas as a' mere phantasy. Con- cluding his sermon Mr. Parker point- ed out that if we place the stress on the outward things of Christmas such as the presents, the decorations, the dinner and the attendant jocularity then we place the emphasis on inve "goodwill" and Christmas is over for another year when the tree is taken down and the lights packed away, If Christmas, and the Christ, born to be the Saviour of the world, is fact for us then we shall place the emphasis in the same place as the angels placed it, tiering 1954 our lives will proclaim "Glory to God hi the highest" •so that we may haVe peed° and goodwill that will overflow to other people. In the afternoon the church school held their Christmas service In the church. Following the rector's Christ- mas story, the pupils presented their Advent offering for dedication to God. The beginner's claes sang "Away in -a. Manger" and the service closed. with the Carol "Once hi Royal David's City.y At the Service of eVening prayer the theme was the closing of the old year and the looking ferwhrti to the new year. t er First Round Robin The first round robin of the year was played out to the semi-finals on Monday night last week, . These games resulted in the final round on Thesday night with Art Wilson's Luck- now rink, whiners of group 1 playing Jack Bowman's and the Brussels boys, winners of group 2. Jack's rink came out ori top aft'er a very thrilling extra end game. Jack tied this game with a beautiful draw shot to the button with his last rock.. Dune ,TvIacDougal, who really makes his rocks talk, skipped his rink which won group 3 in a comfortable win over Casey Casemore. Casey was pinch hitting for Dr. George Howson,' who had won group 4, but due to the sickness of Mrs. Howson, was unable to play in this final game. Rinks were; T. MacDonald, H.. Thomas, J. Todd, J.

The outcome produced some really fine curling, with good sportsmanship shown by all the stone tossers. The visitors were skipped by Wally MacDonald, Bert Shewfelt, Archie McKinnon and Donald Blue. Wingham rinks were handled by Jamei Murray, Wm, Tiffin, R. S. Hetherington and Dr. Art Irwin. President George Inglis, who has been instrumental in arranging these inter-club games was on hand to wel- come the visitors. At the close of the 12-end game the lunch committee went into action. Donald Blue in his usual fine orat- orical style, thanked the Wingham Club on behalf of the Kincardine Club and expressed the hope for a return match in the lakeside town in the not-too-distant future. New Round Robin The big round robin of the year is now in the making. Play will soon commence in the Hamilton Optical Trophy. It is hoped that all those curlers who intended to play 'after the Christ- mas rush will get into this one. Boxing Day BonSpiel Even ,afer a busy Christmas sche- dule of the usual good things, forty- eight curlers were able to get down to the rink for a Boxing,Day bonspiel. It had been hoped to have 4 sheets going on a double draw, but some were just too busy to make it, James Murray and his committee made up a double draw for 12 rinks. lie was also busy selling tickets on a ham (for eating.)
