Show Yuletide Assembly Features Candle-Lighting Ceremony In spite of war-time restrictions students witnessed today an assembly under the direction of the assembly committee. The Christmas program utilized song, dance, and tableaux to express a three-part themereligious, festival and war. Candle Ceremony The program opened with the annual candle service in which the A' cappella Choir and girls' glee entered a cathedral holding lighted light-ed candles. This was followed by a dance of the toys, which represented repre-sented Christmas at home. The representation of Christmas through the world was made by dances and pantomine. Several talks were given on the subject of Christmas customs. This was under the direction of Miss Harvey. Following this a "White Christmas Tableaux" was presented which depicted a soldier and his sweetheart. The theme, "Christmas in War Time" was presented in dramatic episodes depicting scenes in Russia and Poland. This was under un-der the direction of Mrs. Wilcox. Nativity Scene is Climax The climax of the assembly was a Nativity tableaux in which the nations of the earth were shown at the feet of Christ. The program was under the direction dir-ection of the assembly committee which includes Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Hickman, and students representing represent-ing Dolores Dunford. The dances were under the direction of Miss Olson, and the gym teachers, Miss Sleater, Mrs. Walker, and Miss Walker. The reader was Miss Harvey. Due to war-time restrictions the Board of Education requested that no Christmas decorations be used this year. The advisory parties which have been permitted other years will be eliminated because they interrupt the regular class work The all important im-portant issue now is to take school work seriously and get all the knowledge possible. No Need for "Sub for Santa" The Tribune and other agents feel that they can adequately "sub for Santa" and there is no need for South's help this year. |
