The idea of the old fashioned
Christmas is to encourage citi-
gems Of the Island to take part in
the services Of t h e various
churches as they did in years
gone by.
At that time, it was difficult to
get a seat even half an hour be-
fore the services were scheduled
to start, and virtually impossible
to get inside the door. In the most
recent years one can select his
seat even at Church time.
