HE CAME TO EARTH

On Wednesday night Dec. 21, at
the Ward Hall The Junior High
School will present khe Christmas
Cantata, "He Came to Earth but not
as King. Mr.. Daley has charge
of the music. Mr.. Thomas as coach:
Miss Lewis the dancing and Miss
Palmer pianist. The pupils are put
ting forth some good effort and the
entertainment promises to be of the
very best.
The Cantata tells the old, old
story Of the Coming of the Christ
Child. For four thousand years His
people have waited for the Promised
One, whose coming as a real King
will deliver them from the halia
Roman bondage.
The Cantata opens with the ap-
pearances of the three Wise Men"
as they are nearing Jersulem. Their
interview with Herod is shown. Also
a session Of the Sanhedrin.
While at Jerusalem you also be-
come acquainted with a group of
Jerusalem girls, who decided to go
to Bethlehem to watch the crowds
at their annual taxpaying.
The scene then shifts to Bethlehem.
Here you can watch the people as
they came and go through the gates
at Bethlehem. You will spend
night here visiting with the "Jeru-
salem Girls" and shepherd Boys"
A jolly group of "Gallilee Fisher
Lads" with their mirth and song, join
the group during the night.
During this night the Christ is
born. The Star appears, angels
herald his birth and midnight be-
comes as light as day.
The Cantats ends with the scene
at "The Manager" where you will see
the "Chirst Babe, Mary and Joseph.
The music of the Cantata is most
ly new and is extremely pleasing to
hear.
The students are working hard on
the music and also on the Bible char
acters that they are expeced to por-
tray. You will undoubtedly be sur
prised at the results Of their efforts.
There will be no charge of adj
mission. A free will offering will
be taken to defray the expense OF
producing the cantata.

it possible for the B. A. C. to give
more thorough training to high
school students f the other three
grades and to the college class.
In view of these facts we can
understand partly what the future
will be. We cannot foretell what
the future population will be. But
with them any opportunities offered
here there is no doubt concerning
the growth of the community. Steady
employment will be offered here
through the development of the
mines, increased building, and other
activities. Cedar City, for many
years a rural community, will become
urban in its appearance. 1t will be
ranked with the large cities of the
state.
The coming year is critical per-
iod for Cedar City. We must follow
well-made plans, build our homes
uniformly, and beautify our sur
roundings. Visitors will then enjoy
cming to our community because Of
its beauty and cleanliness.
There are no pessimists here now.
They cannot survive. The sunny
smile of the cheerful optimist has
driven them all away. Let us get
in and boost. Nine rahs for Cedar
City-the city of the future.
