CHRISTMAS AT ST. PHILIPS
Services More Largely Attended
 Than for Several Years Past

Christmas celebration at St. pnn- ip's church began. with the midnight service. There was a much larger attendance chan has been customary at similar services in years past. The theme of the evening was: Make the Christmas spirit a part of the program for each day of the year."
 The second service was held in the morning at Il o'clock.
 The afternoon was devoted to visiting the blind, sick and lame those who could not be at the church on account of some in firmity.
 The evening celebration took place in the church. It opened with Ketchum's mystery play of Beth lehem. The part of the shepherds was taken by the following: Harry Dalgity, the old and very feeble shepherd who on account Of age weakness at times had his doubts. Bernard Acton, the young shepherd who was strong in faith and very quick tempered. But the results or their journey to Bethlehem were se- cured by the eagerness of the lad who was very sure and was the first to see the angel and the star over house This was Marion NussDaumer
 Peter Johnson, with dignity, LOOK the part of Joseph. The angel was Elna Arola, who as usual acted well her part. The part of Mary was taken by Lois Wheeler who well interpreted the part ot the mother.
 The wise men of the east were represented by Glenora Waters, Margarte Ferguson and Carol Fer guson. They had devised costumes which we'll represented the customs of that age. Harold MeldahI had charge of the lighting which was managed by a magic lantern which threw on the scene different col ored lights.
 The pay was followed by recita- tions, in the gymnasium. The first was by Herman Villama, who though only about four feet tall reeited with ease and clearness that would have done credit to an old expe- rienced man on the platform. The next was a recitation by Gienora Thomas who is always good; an im- proYised musical accompaniment to a recitation by Lois Nussbaumer and music by a new toy which is a sort of a canned saxophone by Jack Waters followed by recitation by Kinney Dolan, aided by Glenora Thomas.
 The evenings entertainment closed with the distribution Of presents for faithful work in the choir and church school during the year.

PAY THE DOCTOR

In another column appears an ad- yertisement from the Alaska Medi- cal Association in which the kindly suggestion is made that if the read CT is indebted to his doctor he start the new year by paying his bill, which is probably long overdue.
 Dr. Harry c. DeVighne, secretary of the Alaska Medical Association, who sent us the advertisement, states that the association is not seeking publicity for any individual but rather desires to call attention to a very common human frailty, that of passing up the family doctor until all other obligations have been paid.
 Referring to the readers rela- tionship with his doctor, the adver- tisement very aptly says -
 You have confidence in his judgment; you acknowledge hls
 skin; there are times when his services are indispensable. You
 trust him as you trust no one else, with your very life itself, and with the lives of those most
 dear to you. .. Why not make a
 new resolve to remember what
 you owe him, along with your indebtedness to others who are,
 perhaps, more insistent in their
 demands
