LARGE CROWD ATTENDS

Friday night the School Audit
orium was packed with four hun
dred excited children present to
see Santa Claus. Also present
were nearly anoth-T four hun
dred proud parents and friends,
and they might well be proud for
the children indeed put on a
most enjoyable program. One of
the most enjoyable numbers was
the Crazy Cat Cabaret and of
course the little Dutch Girls and
Boys, and many people learned
unusual things fjfom the Geo
graphy less ion. The children of
the primary grades sang their
wee songs. The music supplied
by the band deserves our high
est compliments and the singing
by the Eskimo Choir was indeed
excellent. One of the highlights
of the Christmas Program en
joyed thoroughly again this year
were the Eskimo dances by the
childr.n. And this year again
many, many young faces glowed
with pleasure at their personal
opportunity to talk with and see
Santa Claus. This memory will
carry many of the young people
through to next year’s visit by
Santa Claus.
WE WISH YOU

MERRY CHRISTMAS

“guilty of Communistic activity.”
Union Local 751 of the Aero

26 other officers and members in
