lighted with candles and loaded
with Xmas things for every child.
To the joy of the children Santa
soon appeared in his big fur over
coat and distributed the gifts
among the children. Every child
was then asked to speak or sing
to which request they all respon

ready for lunch by having their
bib on; then given a bowl of mush
and milk and told to sit on the
floor, after which chocolate and
doughnuts and popcorn were
served.
As a token o f love and future
happiness, Miss Margaret Little-
hale was presented with a beau
tiful table cloth by the members
of the Bachelor Girls’ Club. Miss
Littlehale is the first to break
the ranks of the club. At a late
hour the girls left for their home
after pleasant reminisences of
their childhood days.
