BIG CELEBRATION ] HELD IN FAIRVIEW Municipal Tree, Speeches, Music and Gifts Mark Day in 'Cross River Town Special to the Telegraph West Fairview, Pa., Dec. 27. Christmas eve and Christmas day of 1915 will go down in the annals of history of this borough as a time ' never to be forgotten. For the ilrst. time in history this century-old town hail the true Christmas spirit so aroused that residents held a public celebration. Then, too, the awaken ed and aroused interest for a greater West Shore which has been agitated for the past few monti'is and tho sentiment for which is growing stronger week after week had much to do with the manner in which the occasion was celebrated. Some time ago the Good Will Fire Company ap pointed a committee to arrange for and manage a fair and bazar during the holiday season and it was this committee which arranged and so successfully carried out the plans in joldent to the community Christmas tree celebration on Christmas eve and the Santa Claus post office on Christmas morning. At 7:30 o'clock on Christmas eve the lights on the large tree erected at the intersection of Third street and State Road were turned on and re vealed to the crowd who had gather ed there for the exorcises, the most beautiful sight ever beheld in the borought At the extreme top of the ! tree was u large star of electric lights i while in the center was a huge circle of tri-colored lights. Scattered over the tree was a myriad of vari-colored lights 'which altogether presented a most beautiful appearance. The exer | cises began with the singing of a j Christmas carol by the pupils of the three upper schools after which the ! Rev. A. G. Wolf, pastor of St. Mark's i Lutheran church offered an invoca tion. More singing followed after I which Senator Franklin Martin made j a short address, speaking chiefly of the great wave of public sentiment in this and other towns along the West I Shore for civic betterment, urging greater activity along this line and attributing this celebration mainly to i this great movement. The Rev. A. I G. Wolf was the next speaker who spoke on true "Good Will" as an nounced to the shepherds at the birth of Christ and said he was glad that the tire company bearing that name was doing so much to fulfill the significance of the name they bear. : Several selections were sung by the | children after which they joined I hands around the Christmas tree and ; all sang "America," which marked the conclusion of the first community j tree exercises. But it remained for the "Santa j flaus post office" to cap the climax of I the celebration. Promptly at nine j o'clock on Christmas morning the doors of the Good Will firehouse were thrown open to admit the children ;to the Santa Claus post office. Santa, in all his glory with a number of as sistants was inside the parcel window while outside a Samr Claus from \ New York State who v«ime to assist i the good old saint from ocr own State j was busy assisting the ci 'ldren in ! getting their "mail." Never has a sight such as this presented itsolf to I the residents of the borough. In the j throng which continued for two hours were some without, coats and hats, I some to whom Santa had never been I real on account of poverty and who | never in their little lives knew that Christmas was a time of real joy j until this year.
