The Night After
Christmas

From the editor of the Blue & Cole
IT'S the night after Christmas
And all through the house,
Every creature is tired
Yes, even the mouse.
The yule tree is dropping
And facing the floor
Where the presents are torn
Into fragments galore.
The children all sit by
The fire, fast asleep,
While Pickering candle
It's vigil does keep.
The cat by the fireplace
Is curled in a knot
But now he is turning
One side got too hot!
Then Nom goes to Pop
Who is stretched on the couch
And YEARLY hands him
His pipe and his pouch.
And as she does SO,
She says to him "Dear,
Thank goodness that Christmas
Comes just once a year."
Stain is worlds most widely
read author Moscow asserts.
Cycoidal propulsion is being
tested on Army vessel.

perience never to be forgotten.
Mr.. Seton was a printer by
trade and superintendent the
installation of many of the
presses in the we'll known Zion
Printing and Publishing House.
Due to working conditions in
Zion in 1907, it was necessary
for Mr.. Seton to move his
family to Chicago where he be-
came affiliated with the Hene-
berry Company for ten years.
In 1915 Alfred was asked to
come back to the Zion Printing
and Publishing House to take
charge of their press room.
Later he was employed with
the J. Thomas Company for
eight years and also worked for
the Geographic Publishing
Company for ten years.
Mr.. Seton was in the print
ing business until he retired
in 1913. In 1916 he moved back
to Zion and became interested
in bicycle repair work. Last
year he installed modern
machine for the sharpening of
lawn mowers. This year, after
repeated calls for the sharpen
ing of saws, he installed a Foley
sharpener; and also a retooth-
er, as we'll as an attachment
for sharpening ice skates,
shears, scissors, planes and
chisels.
This work, together with his
music in Band and Orchestra,
just about keeps Alfred busy.
He is also a member of the
Saxophone Sextet of Zion Con-
cert Band. Mr.. Seton always
has been a bandsman, having
started his music career as a
young boy. He still possesses

to Mr.. and Mrs. HARDWOOD as
token of appreciation for their
splendid service in the past.
One was a beautiful leather
bound Revised Standard Yer

ment. The other was a copy of
the book, Foxes Book of
Martyrs At the close of the
evening all gathered in a large
circle to sing farewell, "Blest
Be the Tie That Binds.
The boys of the Christian
C BIS enjoyed breakfast and a
time of hiking and games Sat-
urday morning at South Noun
tain Park. This park, / believe,
is the largest city park in the
country, having about $4,000
acres. It is beautiful desert
park, situated in the rocky and
mountainous South Mountain
area. Some Of you have visited
this park during your visits
here in Arizona. The boys were
served, at about 500 AM,
after a game period, sliced
tomatoes, fried eggs, giant
hamburgers and ice water. Mr..
Stump, who was in charge of
the outing, led the boys in a
short mountain climb. Others
who accompanied the boys
were Mr.. Joe Baker, Mr..
Howard Thomas, who drove
the bus, and Elder Barton.
These boys are gathered now,
as | am writing, in back of the
chapel for their regular Mon
day evening meeting. We trust
that through this influence and
time of training the boys will
be guided to a deeper appre-
citation of the things of the
Lord.
Last Lords Day morning we
had the privilege of receiving
a number into the fellowship
of the Christian Catholic
Church. Some of these have
been very faithfully serving
the Lord here with us for some
time, and have now joined
with us, officially, in this fell
lowship. These, to whom the
right hand Of fellowship was
extended, were: Nancy Lee
Hall, nine-year old daughter
of Lloyd and Shirley Hall,
Linda Lane Wade, daughter of
Harold and Edith Wade, Linda
Gail Morrison, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Floyd Morrison, Mrs.
Dorothy Friend, her son Billy
Friend, Mr.. and Mrs. James
George Hill, Mr.. and Mrs. Her.
bert William Clay and their
two children Herby Jr. and
Beverly Rae. Mother" and
"Uncle Jim" Hill have been
very faithful in visitation work
in the Shaw Butte Rest Home
and the Maricopa County
Hospital, and we thank God for
the way he has provided them
with strength. We ask that you
pray for them that God will
give both of them improved
health and needed strength to
continue their work. We are
thankful for Herb and Dorothy
who help here in the work.

they come faithfully TO coos
house week by week, and we
are especially grateful for the
evidence of the power of the
Holy Spirit in the lives of a
number of them.
Now we have a request for
a baptismal service, and, God
willing, the service will be held
at the close of our mid-week
service Wednesday evening.
In presenting the news of the
branch here, I think that it is
we'll to mention some of the
problems as we'll as the bless
ings, SO that you can pray
specifically for our needs. We
read that after Jesus left Jeri-
cho, on one occasion, (Mt.
:29-34) two blind men cried
out to Jesus to have mercy on
them. But Jesus, knowing their
specific need, did not heal them
till they had stated their need
clearly. So I think we need to
ask for things definitely.
One problem in the work
here has been the loss, so often,
of those who have been attend
ing regularity and have occa-
sion to move away. Sunnyslope,
i'm fact the entire Valley of the
Sun, is characterized by a great
percentage of turnover in pop
ulation. People come and go.
1t is not necessarily a reflection
on their stability, as the en-
ployment condition, the hous-
ing facilities, the problem of
health in many cases, and gen.
eral financial circumstances
often make such moves quite
necessary. This makes it neces-
sary to keep on the lookout for
newcomers. Of course that
should be done in any event.
Another interesting fact is
that, since the opening of the
Zion Mountain View Chapel,
here in Sunnyslope, two and
one half years ago, about
eight different UNCONVENTIONAL
groups and independent church
programs have been establish
ed here in the Sunnyslope area.
We do thank God that we have
been blessed with good work.
ers and those attending the SER
vices growing in Grace and
knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Christ. How true are the words,
Great is Thy Faithfulness''.
And how great is the opportu-
nifty of giving forth the Word
as there are comparatively few
who are interested in the things
of the Lord. We are in the
great harvest field and we
thank God for the privilege of
serving Him here in Arizona.
We we're very pleased to re-
ceive seventy-five fine new
hymn books. They are the same
hymnals as the one we have
used during the past two and
one half years "The Service
Hymnar'. We certainly thank
those who had a part in the
purchase of these books in
memory of Mrs. Hetty Maiden
DePew, who passed away not
long ago. We understand that
