The Christmas program at the Free
Will Baptist church was fine one, every
piece being nicely rendered. The solo
sung by Leona Nelson, and the orches-

Clarence West, Leon Beals, Ollie Len
noX, Don Burlingame, Arthur Dunning-
ton, Mary Hutchins and Jarvis Kay, all
beginners, are pupils of Miss Nellie
Huntington, and their playing was a
credit to themselves and their teacher,
who also played with them.
