XMAS CHEER AT STATE SCHOOL Devils Lake, N. D._ N. D., Dec. 23.—The Christmas spirit and Christmas cheer comes in large measure to the stud- ents of the state school for the deaf here. The spirit of Christmas mani- fests itsclf very early in the month of December. In chapel every morning stories of the Christ child and of the Christmas tide are related in a man- ner that even the smallest child can comprehend. The sign of the Christ, in the language of the deaf, is to touch one palm and then the other with the middle finger of the other hand to show the nail holes in the hands of Christ, and ‘even the est tot knows that symbol and reveves that for which it, stands The children are taught that every year the spirit of the Savior 0: the world returns at Christmas time, and ‘Hat all hearts are filled with the love of others, and especially with the love) of little children. . They are’ taught: that a joy is double every time it’is shared with someone else, and how anxious they are to share their happt their good and their love, the good time they are having.
