\ UNIVERSAL SONG FESTI-
VAL FOR CHRISTMAS.

Someone has conceived the
idea of a universal chorus fes-
tival on Christmas morning in
which every man, woman and
child may take part regardless
Of where he may be at the time,
IN the home. in the street, in the
street car or train, in hospital,
training camp or trench.
This idea as outlined is this:
Il is suggested by the originator
OF the plan, that at nine o'clock
on Christmas morning, the day
OF all the year when American
home ties are strongest. Amer
leans all over the world. join in
a chorus or endless chain OF
choruses singing America" until
the glorious thought Of our
blessings under the sweetest
Flag Of the universe will ring
round the globe.
The idea is woodworking and
one worthy Of serious consider
alton. AS at no other time in
the history Of the world, will
America need colossal optimism
and undaunted courage as at this
Christmas time. Thousands OF
our men Will be in the army
camps and i'm the trenches
abroad. Many homes will be
saddened by the empty chairs at
the table when the family is
seated for the Christmas feast.
A song festival such as is plan
ned, will serve as a common
bond among people and Will
make the coming Christmas one
to be long remembered in the
national heart
Much has already been done
in Mishawaka to celebrate the
holiday season. We are TO have
a municipal tree and a COM
munity CONCERT, i'm which all are
asked TO take part. on Christ
mas eve. What could be more
fitting as a climax TO the cele-
bration than a song festival at
nine o'clock. Christmas morning.
1t requires no more than the
effort of remembering. No mat
ter where one may be, it will be
possible to sing, TO play the
strains of America" and to
ring the church bells for a few
minutes in observance Of the
day.
