The Feel Os Christmas
Where would I rather be tonight?
In a place I well remember:
One Christmas Eve in the candlelight,
On a Winter night in December.
Hearing the wind sweep over the hill
Piling the snowdrifts higher,
Wishing and dreaming as children will,
Half asleep by the warm log fire
Os Shepherds and Angel songs they heard
As they followed the Bethlehem Star;
And Mary, who remembered every word
Os the strange Wise Men from afar
Filled with the wonder of that Night,
Os the Babe in a manger of hay;
While over the world a wondrous light
Shone down, with a soft warm ray
If I could be like that child again
And fell the awe and delight
Os Christmas Eve as I knew it then,
I would find Him here, tonight!

how they were chosen from
the villagers themselves. The
Play began at eight in the
morning and continued until
six in the evening and was a
deep emotional experience for
those in attendance. Mrs. John

slides of the theater and actors

delicious refreshments in the
