CBEPSTOW SCHOOL CONCERT

Those who were slow in getting into the Christmas spirit this sea- son. were greatly helped along in that line when they attended the Christmas concert at Chepstow school. As soon as one entered the little one-room school in Eastern King's, the sight of two large Christmas ‘trees on both sides at the stage. the streamer: and the glittering of foil and hand made stars in the lamp and candle light made one relax from such worries as Christmas shopping. the Christ- mas dinner. etc, and listen once again to the familiar and ever lovable stories and songs about Christmas.

The teacher. being master of ceremonies. read from an original scrip which ran into some ten odd pages but of which audience never seemed to tire.

The joy of the pupils rose as each number seemed to bring a louder and longer applause.

The two main attractions were the dramatization of “the Christ- mas Story" and "The. CratchiVs Christmas Dinner."

A sense of quietness and holiness prevailed in the little one-roomed school which was filled to cap- nt-ity as the curtain fell on the closing scene of the Christmas Story. which portrayed the crib Man- sianding behind if, and She- phvrds 0n their knees in adoration. All was acted in special costumes

Since that time he has travelled extensively over Eastern United states and Canada. For the past twenty years he has resided in Winnipeg, and it has been forty years since he visited this vicinity. It is interesting to hear Mr MacPhee's description of Montague at his time of departure. and the sharp contrast he finds in the present day setting. It is pleasing in note that Mr. MacPhee was "so favorably impressed by the pro- gress of the community.

Work on Mann's hill has been suspended owing to the recent heavy snowfall. Motorists are all too" well aware of the dangerous curve existing on this hill, andl many serious accidents have giv- en ample evidence of the necessity of rectifying existing _conditi0ns. Prior to the heavy snowfall, ex- oavation had already been begun on a straight line from the base of Bell's hill to a point about two hundred yards from Pooids Gar- ne, thereby eliminating this dan- gcrolis curve. The Government is undertaking this piece of road construction in view’ of absolute iecessity of reducing the accident toil at_this point. it is expected that. this construction will be com- pleted first thing in the spring so that it may be paved while the Georgetown road is being paved.
