AVENUE M. E. CHURCH

Our thoughts go out to our many
friends at this happy Christmas time
wishing them joy in all their deeds
and days; wishing them time for the
task assigned, wisdom for the work tC
be accomplished, peace for the path
way to be trodden, friends for the
fireside, and love for the home.
After weeks of preparation we in
vite our friends from everywhere to
come and enjoy the festivities Of this
happy season with us at our church.
On Sunday evening, December 23rd, at
1880 o'clock in the church auditorium
about seventy young people of our
Sunday school will participate in the
beautiful Christmas cantata, From
the Heights of Glory" There will be
many in costume, which together with
the illumination of a large electric
star, and some appropriate stage prop
critics will give a splendid setting for
the beautiful program to be rendered.
We trust that our friends will avail
themselves of the opportunity of en-
joying this happy occasion with us.
The early Christmas morning ser
vice will be held in the Sunday school
room at o'clock after which it is
hoped that the entire congregation
will participate in the singing of the
old familiar carols. Nothing could bet
ter fit us for a merry Christmas than
to spend a little while in the early
morning hours rejoicing over the ad-
vent of the Christ-the Gift Divine.
Don't overlook the date, Sunday,
December Both, when the church choir
under the direction of Charles E. Var
ney will render a very beautiful can
tata entitled, "The Christ Child" This
is the season of the year when there
are many treats in store for those who
are lovers of good music. We offer
this opportunity to all Of our friends.

NEW YORK, March g.-Charles NJ. Schwab, according to a London despatch, said upon his arrival over seas: My one complaint is that the steel industry is limited. Under Am erican conditions it is limited by lack of labor and by the railroads, which cannot handle our output. If we could get immigrants from other countries perhaps part of our problems would be solved. I think the debt settlement is wonderful. I hope it will awaken France to a realization that such things can be handled well if both sides are anx- ious to make the best of conditions which face them"
