Christmas and longed to see;
another.
Later, stores began staying
open at night, and merchants
at Warrenton, Norlina and Littleton
voiced pleasure over
accelerated business.
Churches of all denominations
over the county oegan staging |
special Christmas services in- j
eluding cantatas and enact-'
ments of the Navitity Scene.
Churches of all denominations
are planning to hold services
on Christmas day and several,
county churches will hold their,
traditional midnight services j
on Christmas Eve.
Warren County schools let
out on Friday and gave a
chance to get into the Christmas
mood of preparation and.
anticipation. Most colleges attended
by Warren County stu-'
dents recessed classes on Friday.
|
Parties are being planned
for various nights of the holi-]
day season, and stores in all
three of the counties larger
communities will have a twoday
holiday and will reopen for'
business on December 28.
Youngsters helped usher in
the Christmas spirit on Sunday!
night when a large group went'
caroling and returned to Em-i
manuel Episcopal Church for!
a period of fellowship and refreshments.
Throughout the county, civic, i
church, and school organizations
have been helping the
needy with the collection and
presentation of food and cloth- j
ing.
Santa Claus has been putting j
in his appearance since riding:
into Littleton and Warrentoni
more than a week ago in the i
pro-Christmas parades put on
by the two towns. Hut his hie I
moment comes on Christmas'
Eve while his most faithful ad- i
mi vers are asleep.
Housewives have been busy
with Christmas cooking and
with decorations of homes.
Their work in Warrenton was
climaxed on Tuesday night
when the Warrenton lions
Club picked the winner.! in
the annual Christmas decora-!
tions contest.
From all indications it ap-j
pears that Warren residents
have in store one of the
brightest Christmases in recent
years.
