very effective by darkening the entire

As the name, “Entertaining Santa
Claus," suggests an entertainment was
given to old Santa by the members of
our school and Sunday School. De
ligltful songs and clever drills were
given by the little tots and the fairy
queen with her dear little fairies was
quite beautiful. There were also the
doll mothers. the newsboys, the
brownies, Indians, Japanese, Little
Bo-Peep, and Jack and Jill in the cast
of characters. Then after Santa had
been entertained he was honored by
being crowned "king of Christmas,"
but he very eloquently disclaimed this
honor, giving it to its rightful owner.
Jesus Christ.
After the program Santa Claus and
his helpers distributed the presents
on the Christmas tree and the fruit
which lay underneath it. The entire
program was over by 1 o'clock and
everyone went away with that kind
feeling toward all, which is the spirit
of Christmas. Furthermore, it was
agreed that this was the best pro
gram that has been given here for a
long time.

What is education? In a general
sense, it is the development of the
whole nature of man, physical, Intel
lectual and moral, through interaction
with every phase of his enviromn-

meaning, the development of the pow-
era or capacities of the mind througu

individual and social phases, together
