Y. W. C. A. Program Is Given at Myers Hall
The whole atmosphere of the service was one of peace and restfulness. Seven tailors worked in bedrooms backed fireplaces in the front of the room formed the setting for the Christmas program, the participants in which were unarmed.
Reading and song alternated with each other to make up the program. Josephine Blades and Rachel Gail read the portions of scripture which were taken up in song by the chorus led by Margaret Dermosa as soloist.
The theme of the service was based upon the W. Y. C. A. motto, "I came that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly." Beginning with a group of Christmas carols and sacred hymns, sung by a women's choir, the program culminated in a impressive quotation.
The Y. W. C. A. held its annual Christmas server service at 3:30 yesterday afternoon in the auditorium of Myers had

CHRISTMAS
WITH Christmas so near we remember the times when with shining eyes and fast heartening hearts we eagerly looked forward to the coming of Santa, that cheery year who brought the gifts we had wanted all year.
We recall the bright apheles the toys made on the floor; the tree beautiful with its caidens, thusel, popcorn and cranberries, and best of all the 'grey silver star' on the top apig
But we were never left out. Sota was kind and always came. While we were admiring all the precious toys we wondered if, after all, he hadn't left something for Johnny and Sally.
Some of us watched the toys taken down on Christmas eve by a Santa who looked suspiciously like Daddy or Uncle Jim. A cold, gray dawn found many of us creeping steadily down stairs in bare feet to find the stockings we had left the night before. Suppose something had happened and Santa might, just might harpen to have passed us by.
We remembered they had never lectured long to our happy planning for Christmas and wondered why, when they had been good, Santa was not coming to see them too. We did not understand but knew that for some reason they would not have anything. Clutching our toys closer we wished for a minute that we could do something to help. But with childhood's happiness in its own possessions we soon forgot.
Now we do have an opportunity to help; and we know how now, too. If everyone stops long enough to remember what Christmas meant when he was small, no children will endure the disappointment of a Christmas without anything from Santa.
