FIRST XMAS DEPICTED
In LUTHERAN CANTATA

1t would be difficult to find aay-
where a Sunday school program
more impressively rendered than the
one given this year at the armory by
the English Lutheran pupils.
The cantata, From Heaven s
Throne" which was rendered, depicts
the Christmas story most realistic
ally and wildly. The characters rep
resented by the different individuals
and groups Of children were Pro-
phecy, Truth, Shepards, Wisemen,
Angels, chorus of Bethlehem child
rem, and these together with World
and Doubt, also impersonated, were
woven together in the parts they
played with such manner as not
only to represent to the mind the
first Christmas and it's eternal sig
rificance, but also to give that event
a twentieth century application.
The program was given against a
scenic view of the city of Bethlehem
which covered the entire rear of the
stage. A large Christmas tree stood
to one side. After the program
goodies were distributed. An offer
ing was taken up for the orphaned
children.
The splendid and impressive work
of the children in rendering the pro-
gram evinced much careful training
and credit is due Mrs. Fl. A. Hayes
tad, Mrs. L. E. Bragestad, Kristine
Peterson and Elvira Thomson.
