CLASS HOLDS ITS ANNUAL
YULE PARTY

Yuletide reminiscences, Christmas carols, Christmas decorations furnished entertainment for members of the T.E.L. Sunday School Class of the First Baptist Church  Sunday afternoon. The party, which started at 3 o'clock, was the annual Christmas party of the class, and was held in the Plantation Room of Houston's Restaurant.  Mrs. Rex Corley is the teacher, and Mrs. Eugene Smith assistant teacher.  Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Hattie Fannin acted as hostesses.

Preceding the program, refreshments carrying out the Christmas season motif were served from a table centered with an arrangement of red carnations.  Mrs. Corley and Mrs. Audrey Jackson poured tea and coffee from silver services at either end of the table.

Mrs. Johnnie Gholson conducted group singing of Christmas carols and sang several solos.

Mrs. Henry Church, program chairman, asked the various members and guests to relted their most memorable Christmas.  She later read a short story by Kathleen Norris, "If I Only Had the Money, Wht I would Do."  The story reflected the the value of personal service and love for others which costs nothing and pointed out that a pauper could help others.

Monty Stem and Maria Hughes concluded the program by singing Christmas songs.
