Several groups of singers went out
/about five o'clock Christmas morning
and Hang Christmas hymns on the
streets. It was a beautiful thought
and all who took part have the grati
tude of many who awakened to hear
"Hark the Herald Angels Sing" or
"Holy Night" and returned V> their
slumber to dream of that first Christ
1 mas morning when the angels sang;
or arose to the duties of the day with
( their hearts filled with the peace
I which the music inspired. It is a
most fitting way to celebrate the birth
1 of Christ and we commend it to sing
ers every where for all Christmas
| mornings to con-.e.
