THE MYSTERIOUS LIGHT
Patrinka was a poor little girl who lived
in Belgium. She did not know what
real Christmas was, because her father had
been killed in the World War, and her
mother had to make the living. They were
so poor they hardly had enough to eat, let
alone have any presents.
It was Christmas Eve, all was still save
the shrieking of the old wind mill. Ea
trinka lay on her little bed wishing Santa
Claus would come and visit her that night.
Suddenly a thought came to her. She
jumped out of bed and wrote a note and
stuck it in her little wooden shoe, and set
it beside a glowing candle out side her
door. She then went back to bed.
A large car was speeding northward.
It’s occupant a pleasant looking young
man was thinking as her sped along of
his home in old Kentucky. He was wish
ing he could spend Christmas with his
mother and sistersl Suddenly there was a
loud noise. The man stopped the car and
got out only to discover a puncture. He
felt in his pocket for a match but had
none.
As he was looking around he saw
gleam of light in the distance. He fol
lowed it and was brought to Katrinka’s
door. He read the note and felt sorry for
the' little girl. He eai-ried the candle
down to the car and fixed the tire and rode
off to the next city which was twenty miles
away.
When he reached there -He went immedi
ately to a dry goods store and bought
clothing, next food, dolls, and candy were
bought. He went-back and placed the
things with the candle at Katrinka’s door.
The next morning Katrinka was very
happy for Santa had certainly visited her
that night.

JUNIORS GET TOGETHER TO
STUDY LITERARY DIGEST
Not long ago Miss Killingsworlh sug
gested to her class that they make the, stu
dy of the Literary Digest part of their
English work. The two Jrmior classes,
who, like all students in G. H. S., pride
themselves on their modernness, at once
looked favorably upon the suggestion. So
their English committees met and decided
how they would do it.
This is the plan. The class is divided
into three groups. Bach member of the
committee is chairman of one group. He
or she selects one member of his or her
group for the leader. One group takes
charge of the program each week. The
chairman and leader of the group taking
part make out tjje program together. The
parts are assigned on Thursday, program
is on Friday. The entire resitation period
is given- over to the study and discussion
of current topics based on the Literary Di
gest. The purpose of the club is threefold:
1. To encourage an interest in present
day problems and happenings.
' 2. To help promote good speech by prac
tice.
3. To make the English course more va
ried and interesting.
This program, .carried out by the third
period class, shows how the plan: works
out. First ten minutes, chairman Nida
Swaim asked questions to the class at large,
which resulted in three discussions:
1. The Child Feeding Fund—Pauline
Fitzgerald.
2. Closed vs. Open Shop^Myrtle Ellen
LaBarr.
3. A Campaign of the Relative Interest
of Henry Ermond and the Literary Digest
—Ethel Waugh.
The meeting was then turned over to
Ethel Stockton, leader, who read a letter
■svritten as though she were Charles Gar
land, writing to a friend and explaining
why he refused a $1,000,000 inheritance.
Short Talk; The Coal Situation—Albert
Stanton.

MORAVIAN MINISTER TALKS
IN CHRISTMAS PROGRAM
Mr. Kenneth Pfohl, from the Moravian
Church of Winston-Salem, spoke to both
the lower and upper classes at the Christ
mas program, Mr, Pfohl came down to
talk to us by special invitation, and we
greatly enjoyed him and appreciated his
coming so much.
His topic to the lower classes was “The
Star in Your Heart,’’ and the subject for
the higher classes, “Jesus Christ the Light
of the World.’’ Both talks were clear,
simple and to the point. Mr. Pfohl has a
beautiful singing voice and sang Holy
Night, Silent Night, as a special request,
much to the pleasure of everyone.
