THE SEAFORTH NEWS
At The Manger
When Mary the 1\lothei kissed the child,
And night on the wintry hills grew• hike',
And the strange star swung from the courts of air
To serve at a manger with kings in prayer,
Then did the day of simple kin
And the unregarded folk begin.
When Mary the Mother forgot the pain,
In the stable of rock, began dove's reign.
When that new light on the grave eyes broke
The oxen were glad and forgot their yoke;
And the huddled sheep in the far hill fold
Stirred in their sleep and felt no cold.
When Mary the Mother felt faint hands
Beat at her bosom with life's demands,
And nought to her were the kneeling kings,
The serving stat and the half -seen wings,
Then was the little earth trade great,
And the man came back to God's estate.
-Charles G. D. Roberts.

S OF PUBLIC SER
Encouragement once in a while heartens the spirit,
makes you feel your efforts are appreciated. This
year — our 60th Anniversary — has been for us a
memorable one. There has been praise and apprecia•
tion. Editors, executives, men and women throughout
the community we serve have come forward with
kind words and best wishes for our future.
Some typical comments are reproduced at left.
Every 'telephone worker feels deeply grateful
for these expressions of goodwill, confidence
and friendship. We all hope that we may
continue to deserve the approval which has
been so widely expressed.
