HORSEFLY

The Christmas concert was quite a
success. Thanks to Miss Irene Johns
the public school teacher, ana Mrs.
Clarke and Mrs. s. Barrett.

There were plays, recitations and
carols. The big feature of the evening
was a puppet show made by the school
children.

Little Dickie Hockley, four, opened
the concert with a recitation, and
little Donney Caswell closed it by
leading the audience in singing
“Jingle Bells,” his favourite song, and
he certainly can sing.

All the children did well and every-
one enjoyed it.

People from Miocene, Beaver Val-
ley, 108 road and Black Creek attend-
ed. There were 85 children‘to receive
presents from the Christmas tree.
Santa had to bring his wife along to
help him distribute the presents and
candy bags.

LOOKS LIKE an Xmas card in
Horsefly since our last snow. The
trees are just covered in frozen snow.
Looks beautiful. The weather is still
not cold.
