KAKE
The great moving power of a
holiday was again felt during the !
week and started in full at the
town meeting held on the 22nd.
Haines Dewitt, the active minis
ter, a prominent leader of the
town, and Pete Hanson, presi-’
dent of the local A. N. B., were
selected head of the holiday ac
tivities.
No time was lost by these men
n giving the rest of the citizens |
\ job in the preparations and!
they did not spare themselves.1
Money to the amount of $66.001
was raised for the tree, the in-;
evitable candy, peanuts, fruits
-•tc., without which the childrens’
Christmas would be no Christ
nas at all.
Jack Skeek and Willie Grant
vere given the job of finding a
suitable tree. Early in the morn
hg Ihese fellows had their part
lone by bringing a beautiful
spruce, while Mr. Keithahn, the
'chool principal sent the larger
boys for greens with which Pete
Hanson and his men decorated
’he Hall.
On the 24th the ladies prepar
ed over 300 bags of surprises for
children of all ages. The Home
League, Missionary Society, and
the Sisterhood, under the direc
ion. of Mrs Cooday, A. N. S.
president did their part and kept
the men running to keep up with
them.
At seven in the evening the
house was in a bustle as the
band played and the program
started with Arthur Johnson an
nouncing. There was invocation
by Rev. Haines Dewitt, band se
lection in the midst of a mur
mur of excitement among the
children. Then Eddie Williams
read that old, old story that is so
familiar and is ever so new in its
simple majesty. He read in a
house that was momentarily
hushed. Clearly, solemnly this
'•tory that belongs to the world,
and is the sign, the escence of
Christmas, was read. Nothing
was added;, nothing else was
needed.
The program was next turned
over to the charge of the school
and a most entertaining pro
gram was given for the next
hour and a half. Mrs. Keithahn
Miss Brainard and Miss Williams
had done their work in training
the children .well. The recent
visit of Dr. McAuliffe in looking
after the health of the children
had cut into the work on ac
count of operations. There were
others down with colds, but the
Teachers carried on without ali
! ties, or complaints.
Santa Claus arrived suddenly
and was acting pretty spry for
an old man. The very young
looked on in wonder and were
repaid for the strenuous efforts
at being good during the past
week especially. He greeted
everyone heartily and proceeded
to the main business of distri
buting gifts with utter disregard
for the older folks. This is the
time of youth; it is their day
and the old gentlemen is acting
very happily. He disappears to
let the kiddies feast their eyes on
the toys, enjoy the delicious
candy without the annoyance of
1 being stopped, or their fun being
spoiled.
Past midnight there was cer-j
tain noise, or was it noise; the
sick folks who really know how
long and dreary and long a night
can really be said later that it
sent delightful shivers up and
down their spine; it sent tears
into the eyes of the old, as mem
ories flood back to them; the
children sleeping gladly heard
music of joy undefinable, and
the prosaic said there were some
carols sung “last night.”
Officers elected for the coming
year, by the Sisterhood are as
follows:
For president, Mary Cooday;
Vice-president, Annie Newton;
rec. sec. Grace Austin; cor. sec.
Alice Stuteen; fin. sec. Ellen
Williams; treas., Mary Dugaqua;
sgt.-at-amrs, Ruth Grant and
Etta Albert.
This camp is looking forward
to a very successful year in the
Sisterhood work.
