mn I Catherine Gilbert entertained
the PTA last week at Exeter
Township Elementary school
with colored slide pictures. Be-
sides some Christmas scenes her
pictures included a year’s cycle
of seasons and moods taken of
Ba’d Mountain over beyond
Newton and Milwaukee. Some
were taken near the mountain
itself but most were from Mt.
“Zion area. If you have watched
a mountain hide its lovely head
in gathering mists, or display its
purple robes in the glory of an
afternoon sun, or look benignly
over the ton of a cloud—well,
you can imagine what old
Baldy looks like around the
calendar.
| A LIVE NEWS ITEM
Like old times I dropped in at
Emma and Bill Perego’s at Orange.
“Any news?” says I. “Yeah”, says
Bill, “I'm still alive!” Of course
that is good news. We had a grand
visit. I did not remind them of
what fun it was years ago to eat
black chocolate cake in a bowl of
milk at their house. Emma had
heard that was the way I liked
black chocolate cake and she pro-
vided it! Pleasant memories. They S :
told me that Beverly and Marie |
Perego (they have an apartment |
upstairs) recently visited Marie's
uncle. John Hay in Philadelphia.
Beverly and Marie's daughter, Don=
na and husband, Richard Sands
came with baby Richard” to visit
while papa Richard went hunting.
| He bagged an 8-point buck. They
live half wdy up the Mile Hill out
of Tunkhannock.
Marie Perego is having good suc-
cess conducting the Orange choir.
Now they are rehearsing Christmas
music,
ALL TOGETHER FOR CHRISTMAS
We four Gilberts are together
again for Christmas, a cherished
occasign. The Christmas tree stands
in front of the big study window
on the wooden platform ‘I built for
it in two sections last year. Trim-
mings have been accumulating since
the first year on Dorothy's first
| tree. The tall balsam fir in the
front yard is trimmed again this
vear by Catherine’s imaginative
| hand with tin can covers glowing
{ with criss-crossed fluorescent tape.

your car lights. :

TAKE CHEER TO RANSOM
The Youths Crusaders, Marjory |
Seiple’s Sunday School Class, con- |
sists of a dozen or more boys and |
girls of teen-age enthusiasms. For |
instance, the whole bunch of them
with their teacher went to the |
‘Lackawanna County Convalescent |
Home at Ransom, Saturday, distrib- |
uted gifts of cookies and handker-
chiefs to the residents.
Bradley Earl played his accordion !
and Larry Earl his trumpet. Every- |
body was pleased beyond measure
and the class itself got a great deal
of delight from doing it. |
“After they got back to Seiples |
they all sat down to a turkey din-
ner which they knew what to do
with. Then in the evening they
gathered: at the Mt. Zion Church
to trim it for Christmas.
We saw the results on Sunday |
morning—the shapely well-trimmed |
tree, the poinsettias and greens along
the altar rail, and perfectly safe
but lovely electric candles and
greens on the window sills.
It is. worth while knowing just
After dinner an exchange of gifts
furnished pleasure to everybody.
