Mrs. Kmlers presented each of tho teachers with u box of fine Delicious apples as a Christmas remembrance. 1 ' Tho Christmas decorations made j by the school children are very pretty. Vhen the lights are on, they show up very beautifully. I'pon each of three windows we have an effective scene of the desert and the town of llolhlohem In the distance and three wis men on camels riding Into town. This rcprcNenU the Itlbllcal wise men as they are 'on their way to pay homage lo the Saviour born that night In t lie city of David. Thero Is a bright guiding star above tho town, shining on tho stublo in which Jesus was born. The scene was made out of Hon Ami, common washing bluing ami showcurd color paints. The sky aud the desert were made with a sponge while me city and the trav elers were made In silhouette with black paint spread with the brush, it is very simple but effective. In the front of the room we have a idmilar scene made of blue crepe paper for the sky, sprinkled with sliver stars which diminish in number toward the bright guid ing star. The city and camels with their riders are cut-out work. Around the top of tho black board Is a border of Santa Clauses of Denlson crepe which gives the boards a finished appearance. Across the center of the room, lengthwise, hanging from chande liers, are Denison streamers of red and green, gracefully hung, from which Iclcls drop giving the room a touch of the Arctic. At the top of each window Is n cluster of Oregon grape nnd cednr. Hod bells hang from tho window shades and the doors. ' Our school room certainly is beautiful. Any one coming into the school room would surely know Christmas was near. Kvery one is welcome to come. Inspect, i ml enjoy our Christmas decora -th us and I m Mho our Christmas spirit.
