DOLCIN EASES THE PAINS OF Two hundred parents and pupils of the Regular Baptist Church on Wednesday evening braved the wind and rain to watch or take part in their sue- j cessful Christmas Concert. The entire program proceeded smoothly, presenting to the appreciative audience two hours of colorful pageantry, which reminded many of the true meaning of Christmas. After the singing of "O Come All Ye Faithful" by the congregation, the superintendent, O. R. S. Blackaby, extended greetings and prayer was offered by Pastor L. A. Thorpe. The boys' beginners' class "welcomed" everybody to the- concert in their inimitable "shy" way, afterwards telling of Thankful Peter" Mrs. Bert Ewald's primary girls enacted Christmas records the supreme fact of the birth of the Saviour. It was His first approach in that-coming "for us men and for our salvation." It was His first step on the way to the Cross and a long step it was. Christ is our Saviour in every way that we need one.

' We can think of no better advice than that which the Pope gave to the people of the world yesterday .... that all Christians should unite to oppose the advance of atheism ... be it the communistic or the capitalistic type. All denominations, we are sure, should be able to come "to accord on some such resolve. Then there is something more than merely agreeing. We must follow up that agreement with action, simple action in the spirit Gnnnnn while the children brought their gifts and placed them In the white baskets the Junior Choir sang carols and "Brin a Torch Jeanette.

A Christmas Acrostic 'entitled "Bethlehem" was given ; by the Primary Boys and Girls ;(Mr. Thorpe and Mrs. G. R. $ Blackaby) and the Junior boy brought everyone back to the first Christmas with "The Message of the Evergreens." . The climax of the evening was 9 are good Church members do not expect Christ's salvation to take away their tempers, their sharp tongue, their selfishness, their pride and hardness of heart that sees all faults but their own and absolutely refuse to forgive. Christmas Is a wonderful time for making up quarrels, building bridges between hearts that are estranged and setting up the the spirit of Christianity the spirit of Christmas could pervade the world, that hope could be really achieved. We may blame others for this failure in the world today to .secure peace and harmony. But it might be well if each of us did a little soul-searching ourselves to reflect if the blame is all on the other side personally or collectively. Here in Prince Rupert the most of us find our i .4 home again for those who have selves amply blessed this Christmas. Our hope is drifted apart. Christmas is a "si1" God given opportunity for these I m that the cup of our cheer may not be overflowing but that it may be shared with all and that every person within our reach, who we want to call our friends today and every clay, have a really happy Christmas. a three-act piay on Longfellow i poem "The Nativity."

One great source of happiness is apologizing. If God brings to your mind this Christmas some person whose relation to you is not what it ought to be try apologizing. If everyone of us looked for a chance to apologize as hard as we shy away from it, this Christmas would be far happier In many circles.
