The Nautilus gave a Christmas program Wednesday evening, December thirteenth. A Christmas carol opened the meeting. Mock business was conducted by Gladys Ward, Elsa Esbensen, Edna Halberg, Irene Ruseling and Francis Broadfoot. Miss Lins explained subsidiary motions aad their precedence. Isabelle Quarberg then gave a delightful piano solo. “The Story of the Other Wise Man,” Henry Van Dyke’s beautiful Christmas story, was read and commented upon by Gladys Ward. The reading brct out clearly the pathos and the uplifting lesson of the story, with its special significance, at this time. Two original essays were read: “The True Christmas Spirit,” by Jennie Lamb, and “Christmas in Other Lands,” by Marie Ward. Both papers showed care and thot in preparation and were equally instructive and interesting. Mary Farrington and Lucy Dillon gave a duet, “O, Little Town of Bethlehem,” which was greatly enjoyed. The program was completed by an extract from Kate Douglas Wig-gin’s “Bird’s Christmas Carol.” Florence Jacobi read from the chapter in which Mrs. Ruggles makes great preparations to get her children ready for the Christmas dinner at “Bird’s Nest.” After the introduction was read, the “two solid hours’ training in manners,” was acted out. The characters were as follows: Mrs. Ruggles ------------------------------------------- Marietta Walsh Sarah Maude------------------------------------------------ Esther Solberg Peter ---------------------------------------------------- Pearly Biesecker Hetty --------------------------------------------------Nettie Ellenberger Clem ----------------------------------------------------Mamie Magadance Cornelius ------------------------------ Luella Halverson Peoria ---------------------------------------------------- Anna Whelan Susan Elma Halberg Billy ---------------------------- ------------------ Bonnie Gilman Baby Larry--------------------------------------------------Lillian Helwig The parts were all well taken. Especial praise is given to Mrs. Rug-pies for her “training in manners” was highly effective. The meeting was closed with the song, “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear.” The society was glad to welcome the mothers of the members to the meeting. Since the Christmas program proved to be a successful venture, an open meeting will be planned in the near future. 10
