The Boy’s Home of North Carolina at Lake Waccamaw, North Carolina was founded in 1954 for “on-the-streets” boys, 9- 18 years old. The Jaycees are one of several community organiza tions that support the Boy’s Home by maintaining a cottage at Lake Waccamaw. The CHOIR will perform a short program of Chrsitmas music before each act of SCROOGE. The Jaycees will be selling advance tickets and Christmas cider and cookies at intermission to raise money for the Boy’s Home. The holiday is not complete without a visit from Scrooge warming our hearts and filling our ears with a melodious “God bless us everyone.” It is a treat you won’t want to miss. The public is invited during intermission to view the mural “done” by students under the direction of the Artist-in- Residence Richard Mayberry in the High School Cafeteria. Mr. Mayberry was in the high school for a week as part of the Artist-in- Residence program. O Little Town of Bethlehem On Christmas Eve, in 1865, Dr. Phillips Brooks, rector of Holy Trinity Church in Philadelphia, was visiting the Holy Land. He saw the little town of Bethlehem lying far below him in the starlight, with shepherds on the surrounding fields. This scene, which he never forgot, inspired him several years later to write the Christmas carol, O Little Town of Bethlehem. The music was composed by the choir director and organist, Lewis H. Redner. On Christmas morning, in 1868, the carol was first sung by the Sunday School children, for whom the carol had been written. Yearn to earn? Learn! Cast not thy bread upon the waters. It will only get soggy. Outstanding Performance On December 9, 1984 the WCC Symphony and the WCC Chorus presented Handel’s “Messiah” in the JAWCC with a large group attending. Jerry Bangle was the conductor with Grady Reagan as the Choral Director. Jane Harris was the concert accompaniest. Those attending said it was an excellent performance and they were looking forward to the “Messiah” again next December. Talent does exist in the county! Sharp Shopping “I’m sorry,” stated the salesclerk to the little girl, “I just don’t have the time to show you any more Christmas gifts that cost less than a dollar.” “How about a dollar and ten cents?” asked the little girl. “Think you’re going to get something that much better for an extra ten cents?” “First let me see it,” she replied. MERRY CHRISTMAS May you ever have enough - health . . . understanding . . humility . . . success . . . work . . love tears laughter ... desire... fulfillment. respect . . . liberty . . responsibility . . . long life with meaning... and with them will you find a very merry and a happy 1985. HAPPY NEW YEAR Cougar Staff Money Matters Aunt Sophie gave a twenty- dollar bill to her nephew for Christmas. “Take good care of that,” she said to him. “Don’t spend it on foolishness. Remember the old adage: A fool and his money are soon parted. ” “That’s great!” he said. “I can make good use of the dough and thanks for parting with it!” Note Christmas Places Many places all over the world have the word .Christmas in their names. Among others, there are the Christmas Islands in the Pacific, named because Captain Cook landed there on Christmas Day, 1777. In Minnesota there exists a Christmas Lake and there are towns named Christmas in Arizona, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee.
