The character carried their parts to perfection, and so impressive were the scenes that it sekmed as though time had gone back through the years to the night of the birth of the Christ Child. The scene opened with a pilgrimage to Bethiehem where Caesar had ordered the Hebrews to report for a census. The pil- grims were followed by the three F-nari- sees who talked of the sadness of the He- brew people and how it seemed that God had forsaken His people. Soon the shep- herds come out to guard their flocks and as they slept, heavenly music was heard and they awakened and heard the songs of the angels telling of the birth of the King in the manger in Bethlehem. They then left their flocks to go to Bethlehem to seek the Christ and find Mary and Joseph in the manger. Seeing the babe they re- alized that it is the Christ told of by the angels and immediately they sent the news to the pilgrims in Bethlehem. The people came and the three Pharisees also. One doubting the news criticised the shep- herds for awakening the people to see a baby, and makes jest that the King of the Hebrews should be born in the man- ger. Suddenly a star shone, the light resting where the Christ Child lay. Three Kinga of the Orient then appeared, telling of the star and how it led them to Bethleaem where it had been prophecied that the Christ Child would be born. They offered their gifts. Throughout the pageant songs teiling of the coming of Christ were sung softly by the choir, lending effect to the pageant which was a beautiful picture of what happened in_Bethlehem on that wonder- ful night. % The order of scenes and characters of the pageant were as follows: ., Part I—Pilgrims ¢n the Way to Beth- lehem, The Pharisees, The Shebherds in the Fields, The Appearance of the Angels, Song of the Heavenly Host. Part II—The Manger Scene, Star *in the East, Visit of the Wist Men, Presen- tation of Gifts, Hymn of Adoration. Joseph were taken respectively by Mrs. Carl W. Brown and C. F. Tarbox. The following appeared in the ecast, Pllgrims—Mrs. James D. Rougn, Alice eck, Gilbert Adams, George H. sleeve, Reginald Ashbey. The Pharisees—Judge Barnes, Judge Pettis, Douglas Hunt, ; Shepheras—Arthur F. Wyman, B. H. Davis, Donald Gildersleeve, Courtney Pitt, W. S. Spencer. Kings—Judge Allyn L. Brown, Arnoid Smith Richard Arnold. Angels—Freda Noyes, Amy Marsh, Vi- | ola Hill, Dorothy _Gildersieeve, Blacklagdge. Others taking part were Mrs. Arthur F. Wyman, Earl Swan, Guido Ottaviano, Jianetta Romano, Sydney Pitt, Mabel Hagberg, Elizabeth Williame, Carl Brend, Marion | Louis Covey, Harriet Williams, William Storms, Mrs. William Covey, Chas. Has- berg, Benjamin Covey, Mrs. W. P. Hill, W. P. Hill, Mrs. William Cousins, Miss Mildred Cass, Miss Elizabeth Smith, Mrs. Floyd May, Miss Lila Phillips, Wallace Harbeck C. D. Geer was in charge of the mu- sic, Carl W Brown and Henry G. Au- rello of the lighting. The service was opened by Rev. David A_ Pitt, D. D, who announced that the collection taken would be to save the children of the Near East. The collection amounted to $142.18, which with the $150 from the Central Baptist church school totals $292.1§, a splendid Christmas. gift to those so greatly in need in that for- eign land. 4 THIED BAPTIST CHUECH CHILDREN GIVE PROGRAMME The Sunday school of the Third Bap- tist church gave a delightful programme Gilder- ; after the shepherds and women had gazed upon the Christ Child. the Three Wise Men entered and walked to the manger, singing as they approached We Three Kings of the Orient Are. They then pre- sented their gifts to the Christ Child and stepped back while the angels again ap- peared. Above the manger was the bright guidirg star, and adding to the effect as the principals entered a spotlight was used. The ittees in charge comprised Mrs. William H. Dawley, Mrs. Arthur L. Peale and W. W. Sample, entertainment ; Miss Mary Lucas, Miss Elizabeth Hunt- ington, decorations; Mrs. Edward G. An- drews, angels, and Herbert W. Cary,| lighting.
