.FIurrieS of the Beautiful"
Add ZeSt to Holiday Spirit
in City-Program at
$50 Tonight.

The glorious furry of snow which
greeted the eyes Of South Bend and
vicinity this morning added the
proper finish 10 the prospects for
really beautiful Christmas. It is d
safe prediction that the hearts of
every one Of the "kiddies" skipped
at least three beats when they saw
the white roof-tops which loOmed
up so prominently after the weeks
of drizzly down-pour. and it is hard
ly fair TO confne the mention Of
much JOY 10 the children alone. for
ii was apparent on all sides that
many a grown-up was more pleased
at the appearance Of the "beauti-
full" than he would have his neigh
bors realize. There Is something 50
Christmasey about a crisp. cold at
mosphere and lots Of snow, that it
is hard to assume the holiday spirit
without these compartments
The city is planning to celebrate
/ the Yuletide season in a fitting man
ner with numerous religious serv-
ices. family reunions. (made so
much happier this year by the re-
turn from overseas and national
camp Of the beloved soldier bOys) A.,
and social events which will be
marked by a delightful informality
and abundance of good cheer, and
I finally as if the war department had
especially conspired to confer favor
upon us all. comes the news of the
safe landing at Hoboken of St. Jo-
/ seph cOunty's boys in the 18TH. and
I kilograms from these soldiers will be
\ the best kind of Christmas presents
that the ones at home can desire.
Tree Crowning Feature.
A big tree ablaze with lights will
I be the crowning feature Of the hol q
\ iday preparations of the municipal
/ ity Set up at a central location in
( front OF the court house. it will
( be the rendezvous for the whole city
4 at $50 o'clock this evening when
I the program, prepared by a most
I efficient committee will be present
ed. No effort has been spared in the
/ decoration Of the tree and in the
plans for the celebration and it is
expected that the response to the
movement will be even more general
than in former years because Of the
/ increasing desire for community ac-
tivity in every form.
