The roll call was answered with a treat for a shut-in. Christmas carols were enjoyed with Mrs. Garnet Farrier at the piano. The guest speaker, Mrs. Millan Moore, was introduced by Mrs. Coffin. Her address was "Christmas in the Past". Mrs. Moore stated that Canada is truly a child of peace and good will. She asked, "How many of us realize when Christ- mas bells ring out that Canada was born on Christmas Day?" It was on Christmas Eve, 1866, that sixteen men at Westmin- ster Palace Hotel, London, con- sidered the needs of Upper and Lower Canada. These men formed the British North Ameri- ca Act and it was as the Christ- mas bells pealed that Sir Leon- ard Tilley of New Brunswick, in seeking a name, glanced where the Bible opened at these words, "He shall have dominion from sea to sea"; and so it was that the Dominion of Canada re- ceived her name. Samuel de Champlain died on Christmas Day in 1635. Pen- ny postage was introduced on Christmas Day 1898. Mrs. Moore also gave a poem "Just Before Christmas", which took many of the older members down memory lane as to how they celebrated Christmas. A poem, "How Christmas IsCele- brated in Other Lands", closed a very interesting address. Mrs. Coffin thanked Mrs. Moore and said sometimes Christmas is sad, sometimes happy, but we should always be happy knowing Jesus cares for us. The singing of the national anthem and the Institute grace closed the meeting. The hos- tesses, Mrs. Albert Coultes and Mrs. Ezra Scholtz, served lunch to the 29 ladies present. White Gifts Are Presented WHITECHURCH—In the Unit- ed Church at the Sunday service the Sunday School presented their White Gifts for the Indian children. The children carried their gifts and placed them on the table at the front. Rev. Mit- chell spoke of the Indians and offered prayer. These gifts are to go to the Indian Reserve in the Southamp- ton area where Mr. and Mrs. Clarence McClenaghan, from this area, are in charge of the religious work. Star on the Christmas Tree Cut out as many colored pa- per stars as you have friends coming to your party, number each star and put a pin through each. If you cut the stars out of sticky -backed paper you will not need the pin. Then draw a fine large Christmas tree with spreading -out branches on a big sheet of paper. When you are ready to play, pin the tree up on to a curtain, and give each guest a star. In turn the players are blindfolded and led to the tree. They are asked to put the star on the top- most branch (if they can). Every one must remember his number, • as a small prize might beg:ven to the best effort made.
