CHRISTMAS SERVICES AT NORTHSIDE The Jr. and Sr. Choirs led the Carols at the Christmas Ser- vices at Northside. Isa the morn- ing, Rev. J. W. Stinson preached on the theme: "The Silvery Trumpets of Christmas". The trumpets of Faith, Love and Courage call us to live as active, dynamic followers of the Christ. Salvation by faith means noth- ing to us unless we exercise that faith. Freedom of speech means nothing unless we have some- thing to say. The phrase, the priesthood of all believers, is empty, if we never act as priests, nor lift up a prayer. "Christmas is the time of allowing God's Love to be born anew in our hearts." The Choirs' sang the Carols: "Jesu Bambino"; "Come Marie, Elizabette" and Solo: "Winds through the Olive Trees" by Gene Nixon. At 7 p.m. the Carol Service was rich in color and harmony. With Scripture portions and 'Carols the Story of the Coming of the Christ was told. Among the Carols were: Tonne's "ung, 0 Heavens", "The Little Road to Bethlehem", "Whence come this rush of Wings","The Virgin's Lullaby" and baert's "Joyous Christ- mas Story". The Combined Choirs sang the beautifully ar- ranged Carol: "And there were Shepherds." The choirs were led by Miss Mabel Turnbull a'id Mr, and Mrs. Jas. A. Stewart. BUSH MUTILATED BY TREE VANDALS A farmer living on the out- skirts of Seaforth was looking for "No Trespassing" signs to put up on his property early this week. His bush lot is being mutilated by people taking Christmas tree. "I would not mind so much if they came and took a -tree", he said, "but some hack up half a dozen trees, cut the tops of oth- ers and leave them on the ground". Wanton destruction of private trees each year takes away some of the joy of the Christmas sea- son for anyone possessing ever- greens. A valuable decorative tree or a whole bush lot, it makes no difference when thoughtless peo- ple go looking for Christmas trees. CLEARING LAND A bulldozer has been at Work clearing seventeen acres of land belonging to Harold Jacicson; which was the former Leopold VanE mond property. The land was orrnerly pasture And, mi- med for many years, had grown Up with thorn apple trees, Mr. Jackson intends to put in a crop next season.
