CHRISTMAS CANDLES.
BY REV. J. EvERETTE NEEsE.


Last night saw home after home
with lighted candle in it's window.
And why was it there? Oh, as you
know it's Christmas time; the birth
day of our King. AS saw these many
many candles, there came to my mind
Ann Bakers poem which runs as fol
lows:
The legend runs On Christmas eve
A little candles ray, /,
Shining through the dust, will light
The Christ Child on His way.
I've polished we'll my window pane
And set my candle there;
I'll light it when the twilight comes
And say little prayer:
Dear Christ Child, may my candle 5
light.
Lead you into my heart tonight.

Boy was warned Nov don't let
this awe you. It's the same old story,
boy meets elephant boy loses elephant

the writer was awed by Kipling. the
fact remains he produced a script
which permitted Robert Flaherty to
film stirring CINEMA motion pic

the brim with entertainment, and its
different, despite being the same old
boy-meets yarn" There are mo-
ments in the picture that tug at the
heart strings, and there are moments
full OF excitement The story is a
simple one-of lad full Of a burn
ing desire to be great hunter-and
it is simply and forcefully told, tc
provide a warm thrill Of enjoyment
for every one young enough to be
elephant and Jungle minded.
The stars are Sabu. the l2-year- -old
