The children of Hillside Convon:
will glvs concert Wednesday after
noon for h ladle of the Alter so
ciety of St Lawrences. A program of
. recitation in English and French
songs and probably a little play will
be arranged for the entertainment of
their guests. The Christmas concert
will take place at the 1 lattery Par t
hotel during Christmas week, and will
be of the usual high standard of ex
cellence. There will ba several unique
features which will attract the !f-iwMl probably receive a large number
cial interest and appreciation of th0. votes although there will be elgh-
audience. ,- Invitations will be Issued
for the concert Utter to the parents
and friends of the children, and tho
program will also be published in due
tint
The Saturday Muslo club meets till
afternoon at the residence of Mis
May Klmborly on Merrlmon avenue at
1.80 o'clock. The program which was
recently published will b given wltu
the exception of the several paper
on the Old Italian Operas, by the Vic

of Mr. H. A, Punham. Aldo, Lucia di
Laramermoor and Norma are the op
eras which form the program and ex
cerpts from them will be sung by
world rewnowned atngers who have

v Christmas la coming rapidly, and
there is tribulation In the nursery for
the first time In the history of the
- world. Thai little folks have gleaned
front the intellectual crumbs of the
parental table, that two washfoiiclt
ling bandits have Invaded Santa Cluus'
domain and have related everything
else they saw but the one thing of
vital Interest which Is having been
. discovered will Ban to, Claus remove
his chattels from the pole to some
other planet, will he In confusion dis
solve into thin air and never be heard
of more T 1 or, blessed thought, mav
hap the magnetic North may have
conspired with Ldlllputs patron sain'.,
and by the slightest deviation of the
. deadly compass caused a miscalcula
tion that kt will take centuries to dis
cover. The momentous question ha
shaken ths nursery to Its foundation,
for Banta Claus has used the North
Pole as a hitching post for hi rein
deer since the beginning of the world,
and to have it turned into n bone of
contention would be an embarnuwln i
Intrusion not readily overcome. They
might have left It alone, of course,
because no one would ever wlah to
live there and its very Inaccessibility
was the reason that Banta Claus o
1 acted ft a his home and work shop
beyond the reach of prying eyes.
There (till a grain of comfort In
the thought that no mortal will ever
live there, and after all Santa Claus
might not have been at home on th-
: memorable day when the explorer-,
discovered the polo in whkh
happy event, the life of trnod Krl
Xrtngle will continue undlsturlMHl. At
any rate the question is of too much
moment to dtscuiw off hand and no
one will know anyway until Chrlst-
