received a splendid response, there be-

gram was centred on ";.Che Light of
The World," A miniature model of a
church was placed on the platform on
which were placed lighted candles,
which each member of the school car-
ried, to show the place in the world,
that he or she had in "The Light of
The World". The opening hymn was
"Brighten The Corner," followed with
prayer by Rev. Anderson. The Scrip-
ture Lesson was taken by nine of the
junior boys, each repeating a passage
of Scripture. The classes then merely -
ed to the platform in charge of their
teacher, to place their lighted candles
on the church, with Donald Lloyd of
the primary class,.giving an appropri-
ate recitation, holding a lighted can-
dle. Rev. Anderson addressed the
members of the school, taking for his
subject "Light" which was followed
with the hymn "Signal Lights". A
pageant "The Torch Bearers" was
then presented by twenty teen age
girls. A large white cross, with ten
burning candles was on the platform,
with ten of the girls entering, who
were announced by Miss Dell Walker,
the country which they represented.

gels, who escorted the country repre-
sentatives away, each carrying their
lighted torch. Bruce Edgar of Toron-
td favored the gathering with two
solos, accompanied by Miss Tena
Reid. The service was brought to a
