At Christmas, singing seems to be the key to a festive season. The children of Southdale certainly made the time a happy one in many ways. Divided into three large groups, and assisted by both parents and teachers, the children went to main corners of the town and sang Christmas carols and seasonal songs. The money received from their efforts went to buying toys and school equipme it for the Retarded Children ' s School just recently opened. They sang $153-00 worth of songs that night. A Santa Glaus Parade just isn ' t a sucess without children in it. ' The parade this year was a howling success and we I are proud to say that we ha.d a hand in making it that way. The Southdale Junior Choir rode on a gaily decorated ! float singing songs and carols of the season. They were all | bundled up against the elements and their rosy cheeks and gay voices made a pleasant combination of sight and sound.
