Christmas Entertain-

' merit Presented To Capacity. House Last Night. f

Queen Square School's youthful performers presented a Christmas entertainment of outstanding mer- it in their school hall last even- ing. The applause of the large audience bore testimony to the excellence of the program which was not allowed to drag fora moment. Much credit is due the principal. Mr. Leo McDonald and his staff for the way the boys took their parts indicating effic- ient training on the part of the teachers.

O Canada was followed by the opening chorus, "Welcome." by, the school. '

The next number, Clown Land. acted by the boys of Grades I and III was well done and some of the boys gave excellent examples of stunts and drill.

Patter, b Francis Moran and Laurence lgoyle as ‘Rastus gave the audience a number of laughs both times they appeared on the program. ‘Rastus had the typical accent well mastered.

Thirteen year old Elmer Gallant delighted his hearers with a violin selection and was most heartily encored.

The Enchanted Boxes by Grades VI and VII was an excellently acted number. The boys dressed to represent mother and the little girls were exceptionally good.

A recitation "Then and Now" by Merrill Walsh and the Chorus "Smile" by the school completed the first part o) the program.

Camp Fire by the Scouts of Grade V was the opening number on the secottd section of the pro- gram. Included in this number was a song and step dance by two of the Scouts. The whole scene was well acted and received hearty ap- plause from the audience.

Vernon MrDonald in his spec- ialty, a speech on Old Mother Hubbard, gave one oi the out- standing numbers on the program. The acting was of a very excellent order.

A Christmas ‘drill by the pupils of Grade IV, and a recitation “Christmas Bells," by Louis Mc- Murrcr were other entertaining numbers on the program.

Christmas carols sung by Bert Steele, Frank Costello, Gregory McDonald, Gordon Bell, Francis Morgan and Edwin Pineau were greatly appreciated by the aud- lence- The scenery was very at- tractive, representing the stable in Bethlehem on Christmas Day.

Bye-Lo-Land, sung and acted by the boys from Grade I, was a wonderful number considering the age of the actors. . .

Frank Hughes sang “Am I Down-Hearted” and as an encore number gave a step dance.

The excellent concert was brought to a. close by the chorus “ ‘Twas The Night Before Christ- tnas."

There was also a large atten- danoe at the matinee performance yesterday afternoon. The program will b: repeated tonight.

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

DIGBY, N. 8., Dec. 18—-Christ- mas is Just a week away and Digby has a. story to tell oi a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, ly- lng in a manger.

Sleeping on a. bed of hay, the two-weeks old male infant was found today in the barn of Elisha K. Budd, Seabrook farmer. Beside it a bundle of baby's clothing. diapers and a comforter had been carefully laid out. "

A note written on an envelope (zcntaining t2 asked Mrs. Budd to look after “my baby" for two weeks but gavo no cluc to the identity or the infant.

"If I do not retum in that time I will send you more." the notc continued. "Take good care of my baby. My baby was born on De- cember 4th."

Wrapped in a heavy blanket and well clothed, the infant suffered nothing more than cold hanck and feet from its night in the barn. where it, was found by two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Budd when they entered the building to start their morning chores.

Royal Canadian Mounted Police spent all day trying to learn the identity of the mother but without success. The baby was brought to the ‘ ," l in Digby and will ra- main hero until the Children's Aid Society takes over the case.
