By ADA DINNEY
I woke up this morning,
very early and could not get
the thoughts of the Christ-
mas Pageant at our church,
out of my mind. I don't know
whether it was the songs that
kept running through my
head like - "As Joseph was a
sleeping,, he heard an angel
say." or - "The March of the
Three Kings" - heralded in
by the organ music.
I could picture them
marching through the
church with their torch
bearers and page boys,
swinging real incense.
Maybe it was the sneak peak
I had at the costumes all
pressed and elegant,
hanging in the c'hoir room
yesterday morning.
Maybe it was the shepherd
staffs, from real
branches, or the manger,
that was filled with straw, or
the bonfire, put together for
the shepherds to warm their
hands on.
Maybe it was the scenery,
back drops, that still need a
lot of work on and there is
only one week left to do it -
Most of all, I wondered
how many people will be. out
to see this age old Christmas
stbry told in song and
dialogue, with a real baby in
the manger, real sheep on
stage.
A little of the real meaning
of Christmas, why we have
these holidays. Maybe your
parents and- grandparentS
have something else to do
but Ifeel it is something your

Church news
At the United church Rev.
Elwood Morden was in
charge of the worship for the
second Sunday in Advent,
and took the theme for his
sermon from John 6:16 and
entitled it "The Way to
Christmas". Christmas is a
way, open to each one of us,
said Rev. Morden. When
Jesus was born a great light
was lit, and it Still exists
today, Christmas is a way of
joy, understanding, and the
spirit of a little child. Our
gifts this season must savor
of sacrifice, or they are
meaningless.
A special White Gift
service was observed, with
the theme "A Festival of
Lights." This included a
presentation involving the
whole Sunday School, en-
titled "Sharing the Gifts of
God," Kenneth McGuffin
performed the ceremony of
lighting the second candle in
the Advent wreath, devoting
peace.
Mrs. Gordon McRobert's
class presented a skit en-
titled "Where Love Is" this
involved quite young
children, and they are_to be
complimented, they knew
their lines, and need very
little prompting, credit goes
to the teachers for both of
these presentations, for their,
time and patience.
At the close of the service,
a very young Mary and
Joseph walked up the aisle
carrying a Baby Jesus.
Altogether this was a very
impressive service.
