Christmas Music Sunday

music. The organist and choir
leader, Mrs. A, Edwin Martin,

and postlude.

celas" was sung, with Rickey
Clarke taking the solo parts of
the king, and Doreen Riley the
solo of the page. "The Holly

an anthem.
The minister, Rev. Fred

Treatment of Jesus" taken from
Judges 13:8 " and teach us what
we shall do unto the child that
shall be born".
He pointed out that what
counts is what "we" can do for
Jesus, and not what "Jesus" can
do for us, because He is always
loving and sympathetic.

''While Shepherds Watched
Their Flocks by Night" some of
the intermediate and junior
choir members sang the des-
cant,

home cardboard stars of strange
and irregular shape, covered
with colored paper stickily awry.
Or paper streamers linked so
precariously that frequent breaks
need to be surreptitiously re-
paired, with mother's apolo-

frail contributions fall apart.
If you live within reach of
the country, there are hedge-
row treasures which provide ma-
terial for decorations. The dri-
ed stems and seed heads of wild
flowers have lovely shapes and
may be dusted with gold or sil-
ver powder. I remember, as a
child, dyeing teasels from the
fields with green, red, and
blue inks. But if you have no
contributions from your young
people and no opportunity to
make your own decorations,
there is no lack of choice in the
shops.
We have a special interest in
studying the colorful, glittering
displays, for we reckon we can
always pick out from the rest
those designed and manufactur-
ed by our good friend in Paris.
Some special quality of imagin-
ation must give that extra touch
to his fir -cone Father Christ-

ferent from any others. He
told me once that the cones are
gathered for him in the forests
of Germany. His tiny angel
musicians, who swing on the
Christmas tree, blowing their
wee trumpets or fingering their
golden harps, are charming.
Small guests at parties are fas-
cinated by his place cards on

When I was a child we were
encouraged to make our own
contributions to Christmas fun
and gift giving. Mothers and
fathers were expected to be
amazingly unobservant of the
mysterious doings in the nursery.
Heavy breathing over painting a
calendar for Granny, hastily
pushed under a book when she
came into the room, some-
times became tearful, for the
hiding may have smudged the
work of art. Then a tactfulcol-
laborator would suggest turning
the smudge into a cloud or a
tree, and all was well.
There is something very spe-
cial about a gift which has been
made individually, however
small it is. Perhaps it may be
a little Christmas pudding just
for two, or a box of home-
made candies, or some small
stitched or knitted gift. There
Ls the same pleasure in contri-
butions our friends make to our
Christmas parties, offering their
musical talents, or introducing
a new game, or arranging a
