fancy. All Of us go this far, but II
is not enough TO dream; we must do
as well. The successful person is the
one who thinks over his dream and
organizes his thinking until finally II
is no longer a dream but a reality.
We grown-ups would give the gold
of Midas, were il possible, If we
might have developed in us the pow
err Of vision, the power TO see life
inaginatively. Yet our little tots
from three to sixth have this power
and instead of fostering and organi-
zing il we do our best 10 stifle II as
a trait not 10 be desired. The seed
Of genius lies in many Of our chill
dren, and parents and teachers who
do not understand, do their utmost
TO crush out the very thing which
later they wish them 10 have.
But" you say, II | encourage
this, will II not make my child un-
truthful? Already he juggles the
truth in most alarming ways As
mothers and leaders Of children, we
must be able 10 distinguish between
a flight Of fancy and a deliberate in
tent 60 deceive Fortunately for Us
the latter cases are very rare. II in
doubt ask the child; If il is flight
Of fancy he will tell you SO.
What we need 20 do is % help the
child see his vision clearly and then
furnish him with some plastic mater
ial with which Ne can make his dream
come true. FAIRY tales are excellent
for the imaginative child. HI is liv-
ing in their world and they help ex-
plain for him that almost ineNplicable
thing called life Free hand cutting,
clay modelling and the sand table
furnish material which will enable
him not only 10 see the picture more
clearly but viii also lead him 70 be
a doer as well as a dreamer, both Of
which are necessary.
The imaginative period, the oppor-
tunity time, comes but once, 80 let US
make the most of il.

CALVARY CHURCHHAS
UNUSUAL CH|LDRENS
CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL

Calvary Church was the scene of a
delightfully."- unusual entertainment
last night when the Sunday School
held it's Christmas festival. "A large
crowd filled the church which was
beautifully decorated with Christmas
wreaths and green's. The stage had
been arranged to represent a huge
fireplace. in front OF which were
seated a mother .(Mrs. Low Wilson,
and her children. whose parts were
taken by Lucille Purdie, Muriel Fox,
Marie Jones and Powell Musterman
The mother told the children the
story of Christ. and Mrs. Wilson told
IL so simply and ,impressively that the
smallest child in the audience could
not fail to understand. The story was
of how st. Christopher brought the
children to Christ, and from this the
speaker went on TO say how much
could be done to help poor children
of the present day As she told Of
how the children OF the poor had to
work in unfavorable conditions there
would appear in the fireplace open
ing child representing the one de-
scribed. Her story progressed and the
number oe children increased until
there were 25 little. waits grouped
about the stage.
One OF the prospective children, rep
resented ty Lucille Purdue. told how
much she would like to help these lit
tie s<rays of humanity and turning TO
the audience and holding up basket
she asked what they would do. This
was the signal for each teacher OF
the Sunday School TO come forward
and put bulky envelope in the has
ket, containing her class contribution.
The hermit who had directed St Chris
topher where TO find Christ then ap-
reared on the stage. in the person Of
Lee Kalmy. and asked for a contribu-
ton from the audience, which re-
sponded generously.
Prof Walter F. Shenton led the
singing which was very pleasing. The
Rev. Emmette r. Spencer led in
prayer, and the Rev II. W. Burgan
pronounced the benediction After
wards the children filed into the Sun
day School room to receive an Xmas
present OF a box of candy apiece.
