CHRISTMAS SEASON, BEGINNING SUNDAY
TRINITY PLANS 3 SERVICES TO MARK

The Christmas Festival will be
observed by Trinity Lutheran Con-
gregation with a series of three
Christmas services. The first will be
held on Sunday evening, Dec. %,
when the Beginners and Primary
Department of the Sunday School
will lead in the alteration of the
ChriSt-Child in service of songs
and recitationS, intersperSed by
the singing of Christmas carols by
the congregation. Because of the
ban on public gatherings no re-
hearSalS could be held, consequent
ly this service will be informal.
This service begins at 7:30 o'clock.
On Christmas Eve, at 1880 o.
clock the upper grades of the Sun
day school will present their serv-
ice which will also consist of reci-
taions, hymns, and exercises. At
the close of this service Christmas
gifts will be distributed to all the
children present.
ID. A. Vetter will be at the or
gan for both of these services and
on Sunday evening he will play 20
Come Little Children" by Schultz,
Christmas Pastorale (From Heav-
en- Above"O" by Bach, and God
Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" by
Roberts. On Monday evening he
will present Christmas Pastorale"
Ton Herald Angels'') by Dinelli,

STATE AND COUNTY
ROADS REPORTED
GENERALLY CLEAR
All Mail Carriers Able
To Deliver Routes;
Garages Full

Roads in Union county are gem
orally cleared today although a
few Of the badly-drifted side roads
have yet to be plowed. County
Engineer Claude Skidmore said
that all main roads and the north
and south roads were open and
unless high winds caused more
drifting, the whole county would
be cleared by Sunday.
sdr. Skidmore also pointed out
hat the clearing of gravel roads
went much slower than when
working on black top roads. The
reason for this, he explained, is
that the plowS often take off sur
face stones with the packed snow,
thus losing valuable material. The
county has all its five plowS in
use and has met no difficulty in
clearing outside of meeting several
stalled cars along the road. These
must be moved before the plow
can go through.
State Highway Director Leo
Grindell reports that all state
routes are clear and safe, and he
does not anticipate any trouble
unless drifting begins again.
The state has six snow ploWS
working a continual 24-hour day
shift, They have an adequate staff
of workers, Mr.. Grindell said. The
only Ohio counties with highways
closed Wednesday were in the
northern part of the state, occord-
ing to a report from the radio pa
troll of the State Highway.
All rural mail carriers were able
to complete their routes Wednes-
day, Postmaster Herman Doelling-
er said, although two of the car
rierS did not check in until seven
o'clock last night. First carrier in
came in around four o'clock.
Both mail trains were late to-
day, Mr.. Doellinger added, and
town carriers were, in general, de-
layed several hours. Reason for
this was given as the heavy Christ
mas card and package deliveries
The postmaster believes there is
a larger number of greeting cards
and parcels being mailed this
year.
Garages were full all over town
with trucks and cars. Many were
frozen, stuck in drifts or reported
rundown batteries. Few were
brought in from accidents because
all driving was slow.

Raymond Methodist Charge

Cloyce d. Copley, minister
The Wayside Churches with a
friendly welcome.
The Way Out
The Prophets of ISlreal were
realiSts, but they were not peSsi-
mists. Take the darkest passages
you can find in the writings
Though they unmask the injustic-
eS, idolatries, immoralities and
I hypocricieS of the nation, and leave
no hidden thing untouched, they
end up on the note of hope and re-
covery. There is a way out, is their
invariable cry. 1T is Gods way
1t is costly. 1t runs counter to our
pride. But it is sure. 1t will pay
! out" Thus the trumpet of Alarm
becomes the trumpet of assurance.

Boys and girls in the Union
County Children'S Home are being
well remembered this Christmas
season. Although the flu epidemic
and schools closing has postponed
some festivities, the children will
all be remembered on Christmas
Day.
For days now, beautifully wrap
ped gifts have arrived from rela-
tives and friends for each child,
and these are placed under the
large Christmas tree, not to be
opened until Dec. 25. Many organ
iZationS and interested persons are
sending money or gifts to the boys
and girls this year.
Holiday festivities will start this
afternoon, when every child goes
on shopping spree, in the Ma
rySville stores. The City Union and
Whatsoever Circle of Kings
Daughters are giving each child
so cents to spend on anything he
wants.
Because of the closing of schools
throughout the county the party
held for them each year by the
Milford Center school will be post
poned. This program will be held
the first week in January and the
teachers and pupils of the Union
school will bring the refreshments
furnish the program and present
each child with a gift. Another
party has been planned, also for
the first week in January by the
UniOnville Center Girl Scouts.
