M DUBLIN' '1'he hall was very beautifully dA - orated last Thursday evening for the annual Christmas concert of the Continuation Scbool ante the St, Pat, rick's Separate School of Dublin, Colored lights twinkled around the stage and around the Christman Crib beside it. On tete other side of the stage was a Christmas tree bedecked with streamers, lights and ornaments. Many thanks to Mr, C. Looby, Mr; Tomlinson and Mr, Ducharme for supplying the tree and looking after the lights. Despite the weather there was a large crowd to see the perror- mance, The chairman for the Separate School was Donnie Klinkhammer and their concert opened with a Pledge to Canada by the boys of the school, This was followed by choruses, rec- itations winch were most enjoyable, and by plays where we saw what hardships a salesman may encounter with some of his customers, and how a very progressive meas' club was al- most broken up by their "interested" wives.on Rald Butters, the chairman for the High School concert, opened their part of the programme by announcing a playlet called "The Name Is John- ston," acted by Bernard Costello, Frank Krauskopf, Jerry Eckert, Cyril Murray, Pat Flannery and Paul Kra - mors, which showed what drudgery and what complications can ensue when a husband volunteers to keep (louse for two weeks, After this num- ber, a group of carollers, neatly packed into a realistically built old• fashioned stage coach, sang some traditional Christmas carols, In a comedy entitled "So She Made a No- vena," a daughter who seemed destin. ed to become an "old maid" in spite of very numerous novenas to St. Jo- seph for a "good husband", finally got one with the unexpected a.nd unusual help which was given by the Saint. It was a good play and superbly acted by the cast which included Phonse and Phonsine Meagher, Maurice Dil- lon, Alice Ryan, Lorraine Maloney and Mary Catherine Stapleton. A Nativity tableau was the final number. Marie Bruxer as a herald angel read the Christmas story while a girl's chorus in beautiful angel costumes formed a background for the scene and sang their hymns of joy and praise. Then to the tune o 1 Jingle Bells, which came from behind the scenes (or was it the angels again?) Santa himself appeared and in truly generous style distributed candy to all comers. (Thanks, Salta!) The last examination was written by Grade 13 students on Friday, amid the sounds of a general evacuation of the classrooms on first floor, not only by students leaving for holidays, but also by books, furniture, and all such, making way for plastering and painting to be done there during the holidays. Before closing time the stu dents and teachers gave each other gifts and Hearty good wishes, and all enjoyed a grand treat of cake and ice cream given by the school board.
