 The dining room was beauti- fully decorated with a huge Christmas tree and greenery and on each table was a candle holder made from pine boughs. As they came into the dining room for dinner Christmas Eve it was lighted only with can dles and one of the older girls was playing the carols softly. After dinner all went up to the chapel which was filled to capa- city to hear the Christmas pro- gram. This consisted of recita- tions, solos, carols, tableaux and closed with the play, ''The Birds Christmas Carol"
