This year the gift is two-fold, for
while the concert is free to all
who come, the young singers and
instrumentalists lend their talents
willingly to the stUdent committee
which has asked all in the community to leave gifts of money
with the costumed students in the
outer halls and doorways. rhese

the Christmas tree in the auditorium to "Make it green" with the
expression of sharing in crucial

made during the school year.

Conference Activities
The Parent-Teacher Conferen~e
periods In· the Swarthmore El....

opportunities to 'extend their Interest in their children's welfare
and education Into more directed
experiences during these afternoons ..
Parents· obviously felt an urge
to plan constructive and interesting
activities for the entire class... or
lUIIaller groups.· One such activity
merged through the efforts of
Mrs. Edward Cratsley In cooperation. with Margaret T. Moore,
fifth grade. teacher at Rutgers
School. Three separate groups
were formed to visit outstanding
places o~ public toter...t In Phil.adelphla.
'
One group undw the direction
of Mrs. Herbert HIlse and MH.
John Honnold visited the Philadelphia Public Library. Mr. and MrS.
Vernon Trlbolettl drove seven
boys to the Commercial Museum,
While a grqup of 15 children, on
another day, took box lunebes and
left. on the noon trafn to spend
the afternoon at the Franklin In.tltute. The mothers who planned
this venture Included Mrs. CratsleT, Mni. William Medford, and
Mrs. W. F. Uthe.
The Woman's Club of Swarthmore has cooperated with the Col.
lege Theatre In presentiog educational . films which the ebildren
may attend.
One smull group activity for
Sixth Grade children was organized by Anne Jane Cleaver, Elementary Art Supervisor, with-the help
of Mildred Kidd, Elementary
School Supervisor, and two mothers, Mrs. Donald P. Jones and Mrs.
Herbert Huse. These 20 children
visited the Ceramic Department
of the Philadelphia Museum School
of Art, Thursday, November 15.

his trips which will take him to

not the weather conditions, which
haven't daunted him yet, or
whether or not his sleepy liille
hosts will remember to leave the
porch light on for him Cbristmas

might forget to call him by noon

, In common with many other small towns, Swarthmore has rediscovered this week that snow, sleet, and ice dO€S complicate pre-Christmas activities but cannot dim the gayety, the warm friendliness, the
f'ffulgence, the contagion of Christmas.
What a transformation Christmas works within US! It betters
the prescriptioru. of psychiatrists and neurologists. It takes us out of
our little selves and shows us (or a brief span o( days the joy of doing
for others. There is no time to consider ourselves. Busy, tired, yes.
aut does it send us to a sanatarium? lnpeed, it does not.
Instead wI! enjoy every rushing minute of it. We do things which
we would class as "insane" any other time of the year. We allot time
!o sing carols, even plan 10 walk out into th:e icy chill to sing ltlem.

Eighteen members of Brownie
Troop 19' carried a Christmas party
to the children of the Highland
Park Day Nursery in Upper Darby
last Monday afternoon. Twentyfive children between the ages of
four and five were entertained
with the Christmas tree brought
by the Brownies, and Dixie cups,
and candy cups made by Ibe
Troop.
Each child was presented with
a gift pin, a' felt Christmas tree,
appropriately decorated by the
Brownies.
This party took the place of
the annual Brownie Christmas
party because the girl. preferred
doing something for other children this year.
Mr~. Robert Walker, leader of
the troop: was assisted in transportation by Mrs. Harry P. Pack,
Mrs. Frijncis Plowman and Mrs.
Henry Coles.

Gentlemen:
The making of gifts at Christmas
time is a wonderful custom !hat
comes from people's joy in the
celebration of the birth o[ Jesus
Christ. People give because they
are happy and want to share that
happiness with others. Quite' often
people .give to Public Servants and
others who serve tnem l'egularly to
show appreci~tion for the fine
service rendered. I think that is a
lovely practice and is very much
in keeping with the spirit of
Christmas.
Then along come selfiSh, greedy
people, who ask for personal gifts,
not because they are In need of
financial or physical charity, but
just because they have a had
case of the "give-me's." .Those
people take all the pleasure out of
giving.
.
It so happens that our garbage·
man or men have been mighty fine
·-they always speak pleasantly
wherl we see them, and they have
never caused any mess, or aggravated us in any manner, as has
often been the case in years gone
by. At a result there is a natural
inclination on our part to show
our appreciation for this fine service.

The church had its, beginning in the Union Evangelical ChUrch of

LIONS HOST AT
YULE PARTY
Service Club Entertains
Children At Inn
Saturday
Local Lions entertained In grand
manner last Saturday afternoon
when almost 60 children from underprivileged homes in Swarthmore and the surroun'ding area
were their guests at the Strath
Haven Inn. Chauffered' by the
Licms, the children began arriving
at 2 p.m. and were received by
members and their wives in the
downstairs room where ball~ons,
balloons and more balloons with
Christmasy decorations of green
and red transformed the hall and
set the holiday mood.
Mrs. Brackne's puppets, opening the entertainment with a halfhour show, was immediatelY followed by refreshments.
Milk,
sB'Ildwiches and pretzels were popular items on the menu but reliable eye witoesses report that
as many as three and four hot
dogs vanished down the same little
gullets; potato chips disappeared
by, the plateful, and only the arrival of Santa effectively halted
the consumption of ice cream and
cake as 57 pairs of eyes riveted on
the bright red 'and white costume,
his cheery face and his overflowing
pack.
Each Lion had brought a present,
and the Club as a unit had provided presents, but Santa"s store represented the gifts of many generous people outside the organization as well and each child went
home virtually loaded with Christmas packages.
It ·was the Swarthmore Lions'
first Christmas party chairmanned .
by George Stouffer and his committee, Horace Renshaw, Ed Sullivan, Jack Ricksecker, Ed Win- ..
dell, and Leslie Korndoffer, with
the indispensable aid of Lion
members and their wives.

The story opened In a Pennsylvania Dutch farmhouse where parenu and children were preparing
for Christmas. 'In par" two, skits
were acted out by th" chUdren,
explaining how the Ch~"'tmas tree
and Santa Claus became associated
with holiday. In the final scene
the children fell asleep as thpir
mother read from the Bible and
dreamed they were witnessing the
Nativity at Palestine.
