There were reindeer, elves, snowflakes, and Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus- These little ones, along with their leader Sally McNichol put on a splendid program of Christmas songs and exercises.

We would like to thank the students from the art class of Clinton Secondary School, who came out to Huronview and applied their talent. Here, they went to various areas of the home, and painted scenes sym- bolic of Christmas, on the windows that hadn't been already done by our own girls. The Salvation Army from Goderich, paid their annual Christmas visit. This is a special time of year for these dedicated peo- ple to come to Huronview with their music and gifts; and along with this event they come here many times during the year, br- inging their blessings with them.
