Chit - Chat By CONSTANCE ARM FIELD i i Christmas is in the air. It’s in the hearts and on the minds of one and all and a glance at the calendar re minds us that only twelve days re main in which to plunge forth in the hurried streets and shops and make the selections of choice gifts for loved ones, or to get an abundant supply of greeting cards. Yes, Christmas is a joyous occasion which brings an array of beautiful gifts, greetings from far and near, elaborate deco rations, family gatherings, and every thing we love—but, are we stopping for even a moment to think of the One who is responsible for these days of celebration. It’s His birthday, you know. Does our Christmas list include a gift or a greeting for Him ? Keep the afternoon or evening of Monday, the 20th, an open date, and here’s why. The sponsors of the Community Christmas Tree announce a special program for the benefit of their worthwhile cause to be present ed Monday afternoon and evening of the 20th at the Opera House by the pupils of Mrs. Richard Baker’s studio of dance. Needless to tell you this will be a sight worth seeing because once you’ve seen these dancing pupils perform in their colorful costumes, you never want to miss the next time. Following the regular picture run in the afternoon and evening, the stage event will be given. Through the kindness of Mrs. Baker and her pupils and the management of the Opera House, the funds for the Community Christmas Tree are expected to be increased greatly. Perhaps you will not find time to help with the Tree in any other way—so attend this bene fit performance, and remember the small admission fee you pay will be used to provide baskets of food for many unfortunate families at the Christmas time. I The 32 Girl Scouts of Troop two are learning things at their weekly meetings that you and I don’t know. They have been studying rocks and stones in magazines and books for some time and Saturday, they went out to examine what specimen they could find. The group first went to Turner’s Jewelry Shop where they were shown birth stones and told numerous interesting facts about the findings, polishing, and setting of the various jewels. The girls then, with their leaders, went to the gra nite guarry just outside the city limits, owned by Mr. O. Dahlgren. Here the group spent a delightful hour listening to Mr. Dahlgren tell of the granite supply in our state and county. He domonstrated how the granite was cut and shaped and even went so far as to blast a huge piece of granite just “to show the girls how it is done.” Accompanying the Scouts to the quarry were Mrs. Fred Weir, Mrs. C. H. Albrecht, and Mrs. Paul Ensrud, who seemed to get a bigger kick out of the trip than the girls. President and Mrs. James C. Kinard and two sons have moved into their new attractive home on College street The President’s home is one of the most attractive to be built in the city in many years...Work or. the house being built by the Fred Dominicks on the comer of McCaugh- rin and Glenn streets, is progressing nicely.. .Decided changes are being noted daily in the remodelling of the old Ritz building, but cold weather is preventing the workman in many ways.
