How, you ask me, can my Park look forward to Christmas? Well, It should In this way. Christmas alTords an excellent opportunity for some real, Jolly good turns. A Christmas party for the poor children in your district is an example of live service. Another Is the earning or funds for donation to charitable leagues and hospitals, and so on.
