The unique ceremony of the celebration is the lighting of candles, one the first night (on December 21), two the second, until the last night when eight are lighted.

Chanuko is one of post-Biblical festivals which records the liberation of Palestine from the tyranny of one of the Syrian despots who succeeded Alexander the Great. Its popularity in the last two millenia has never waned because the drama of religious oppression followed by religious freedom was one of the recurring notes in the heroic story of the Jew. In the life of the Jewish child Chanuko looms large because in the traditional story as told in the Book of the Maccabees, the wicked King Antioehu who suppressed religious freedom and the pioua Maccabees who recovered relifiou freedom with acts of great heroism readily lend themselves to drama tization. Modern scholars see in this fe tival the triumph of new cults ov old. The winter solstice with.lt promise of the return of longer days was quite usually heralded by the kindling of lights, but if thi be one of the origins of Chanuka its historical associations have com pletely overshadowed its original purport, as is similarly true of other festivals that take place at thia time of the year.

Present day Jewish activities in Palestine have in tensified the interest in the festival Hold Carol Service The annual congregational card service will be held tomorrow evening in Christ Church Cathedral at 7 o'clock when the entire service will be devoted to the singing ot Christmas hymns. The morning service will be conducted by Rev. Z. H. Maddocks at 11 a.m.

A request by a serviceman who was an altar boy back home before he became a -warrior, started the custom of permitting uniformed men to assist at the celebration of the mass. Every day now, six servicemen serve as acolytes and on Sunday 12 aid at high mass. Since the custom was originated there have been many requests from servicemen who want to serve as altar boys.

Consequently there is a long waiting list. Above is SEAMAN HENRY BELL of the Navy assisting FATHER WILLIAM F. KING in the celebration of the mass.

Vancouver School Trustee Critical of Prints of Canadian Painters' Work Vancouver, December 17. KB Vancouver school children will have an opportunity to study prints representing the work of leading Canadian artists, but school trustees agreed to order the pictures from the National gallery of Canada, Ottawa, only after the age-old question of "what is art?" came in for heated discussion. Trustee Tom Brooks objected to "forcing Canadian art, good or bad" on school children if European art was better, but Miss Annie B. Jamieson declared Canadian art was able to hold its own in any line.

I wouldn't like to see some of these pictures in any of our schools." said Trustee James Brooks. "You don't want to have to put up placards explaining 'this is a tree' and 'this is a house." must be sure the pictures are such that elementary school children can understand them." It was agreed to appoint a committee to decide what pictures out of the series of 22 available will be selected. The prints will be circulated to various schools for exhibition purposes.

F. Martin, with Harry Maude as soloist, will be held in the church tomorrow at 7 pjn. M-. uui.i INDIANS ARE ACTIVE CHURCHMAN SAYS Rev. H.

6. Alderwood, Church of England Mission Secretary, Gives Views With their young men fighting alongside fellow Canadians in Canada's Armed Forces, and their young women training to take their places as nurses and teachers, the Indian people are moving slowly toward their rightful place in Canadian life. Writing in The Canadian Churchman, the Rev. H. A.

Alderwood, D.D., newly appointed General Secretary of the Indian Eskimo Residential School Commission of the Missionary Society, Church of England in Canada, tells what the Government is doing to spur the Indian folk both young and old to even greater endeavor by spending at the present time some Some of this money goes toward the support of Indian Agencies and their staffs; some is spent for medical end hospital services, and at least $1,500,000 is required for the support of the Indian Residential Schools. Although the responsibility for the education of Canada's first settlers is primarily a national duty, Dr. Alderwood writes that the Church has from the first recognized its duty to provide for them a Christian education. He believes that both in Church and Government circles there is a growing need for a review of policy, and states that a special committee of General Synod of the Anglican Church is working on the whole program at the present time. Indian graduates in the ministry of the Anglican Church and those in training bear testimony to the high type of graduate produced by the Church schools financed by the Federal Government and administered by the Church.

Of these Dr. Alderwood mentions the outstanding Canon Ahen-akew, Rev. Redfern Louttit, working among his own people in Northern Ontario; Rev. Ahab Spence of Elkorn School, and now in charge of LitUa Pine Reserve in Saskatchewan: and John Jeffries, a Cree Indian from Chapleau School, now enrolled at Wycliffe College. As well, Indian girls from Anglican schools are taking Mothercraft courses in Toronto.

At Salvation Citadel The choir of McVicar Memorial Presbyterian Church, under the direction of Victor A. Dermott, assisted by the Citadel Band, will present a program of Christmas music tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock in the Salvation Army Auditorium, 1225 University street. Rev. Ritchie C. Bell.

B.A., B.D., of McVicar Memorial Church, will be the guest speaker. Y.W.C.A. Carol Service The annual Christmas carol service of the Y.W.C-A. is being held tomorrow afternoon at 4.15 in Divinity Hall, 3520 University street, when Miss Margaret Dennis play the organ and a choir of Y.W. C.A.

Woodrow Wilson The highest earthly enjoyments are but a shadow of the joy I find in reading God's word. Lady Jane Grey I believe a knowledge of the Bible without a college course is more valuable than a college course without a Bible.

William Lyon Phelps The Scriptures are very sacred. Our aim must be to have them understood spiritually, for only by this understanding can truth be gained. Mary Baker Eddy A loving trust in the Author of 12ie Bible is the best preparation for a wise and profitable study of the Bible itself. H.

Ulysses S. Grant New Church Calendar Tells Mission Work The Missionary Society of the Church of England in Canada has just issued an attractive "Victory" calendar for 1944. Telling a story of the society's work in all parts of the world, the calendar is illustrated with eight colored pictures, and with photographs depicting life in the mission fields at home and abroad. Among the colored pictures are reproductions of paintings by Indian and Chinese artists. The phases of work presented pic-torially.

include the work of the society with the Japanese evacuated from their homes on the coast; with the Eskimo in the Hudson Bay district; in the Canadian Mission Hospitals; with the simple hill folk of the Julu Valley of India, and with the Chinese in the Diocese of Honan, China.

December 29 Closes Chilean Art Exhibit Last Special Offering of Art Association Until Show on January 6 December 29 is the date now set for the closing of the exhibition of Chilean Contemporary Painting held in the galleries of the Art Association of Montreal.

This show, which was opened early this month by Dr. Eduardo Grove, Minister for tne Republic of Chile in Canada, contains much engaging work which is distinctly cheerful in color and not lacking in variety. The exhibition of Spanish paintings, in oils and pastel, by Bruno Beran. also shown in one of the upstairs galleries, lasts December 24. These two attractions are the last special offerings of the present year, the next event being a showin? of the work of members cf the Canadian Group of Painters which is d-je to open on January 6.

The Lecture Hall, which until recently was the scene of three exhibitions, is now being hung with paintings by Canadian artists, a particularly strong section being the group of paintings by the late J. V. Morrice. RCA. In connection with the educational work of the Art Association of Montreal, it is announced that the School of Art and Design will close for the Christmas vacation from today until January 5 and the children's classes from today until January 8.

New English Art Club Has 94th Exhibition Lior.don. Of the New English Art Club's 94th exhibition held at the R.B.A. Galleries, Suffolk street, the art critic of The Times wrote: This is a society which to some extent suffers from comparison with the glories of its own past, when its members included the leaders in a remarkable generation of English painters, who made the New English the shop window for their best wares. Nevertheless it manages to maintain a high standard, and the eleetion of drawings in the first room is one which has a distinction that is well in keeping with the sfxriety's tradition. Perhaps the ablest thing in this room is Sir Muirhead Bone's The Drawing-room.

New University Club, a matter-of-fact contemporary record of great skill and interest; while for those who prefer a more lyrical style. Philip Connard's Riverside Gardens, a study of wind-blown willows and deck chairs, offers a free and sensitively caught beauty. Ronald Gray's Arthur Norris the figure full of life and sol-idiy poised, is one of the best of his watercolors. Naturally, however, it is the oil paintings which form the bulk of the exhibition, and it is here that the absence of artists of outstandingly forceful personality is most felt. The picture that carries things off best, perhaps is Dame Ethel Walker's Sea Piece: Low Tide, September, a pearly luminous picture (.

in which cloudy sky and receding surf-flecked shore and sea seem to merge. Anthony Devas has a pretty small head, as well as a larger portrait which, though accomplished, is just the least bit uncomfortable in pose. J. B. Manson's Zinnias at Le Touquet is a good rich flower piece, and Miss Helen Lessore's Flowers and Mirrors, a flower painting in a gayer, tenderer mood, is takingly full of light and glow.

A carefully constructed picture, clean and agreeable in color, Richard Eurich's Continental Port is one of the most effective of tb larger paintings. Thomas Carr's interior scene Children in the Kitchen, has good warm' color and is agreeably domestic in sentiment; and Alfred Hayward shows several pictures which demonstrate his command over a variety of styles. Zavi Experimenting With Canadian Clays Toronto, December 17. KB To create a Canadian ceramics art-form, comparable with Europe's best as possible post-war continental exhibitions, is Czechoslovak-ian Jarko Zavi's ultimate aim. Zavi, who left for Canada five days before war broke, is working up trade outlets for objets d'art pro.

duced in a Gerrard street "factory" that doubles for a kitchen. Experiments by Zavi and his wife, a Torontonian, with Canadian clays and metallic oxides have resulted in treatments capable of producing colors up to and including Chinese red said to be the ultimate in ceramic achievement. Pagnuelo Show Closing Today will mark the close of the exhibition of oils by Francoise Pagnuelo, of Montreal, being held in the fifth floor Auditorium of Henry Morgan Company Ltd. Miss Pagnuelo. who has found her subjects about Montreal, in the Laurentians and in the region below Quebec, shows a comprehensive and interesting collection and is encouraged by the interest that has been manifested in her first 'one man show.

Landscape has been her main occupation and the works on view reveal that she is open-minded as to season, though some of her most successful works are of autumn and winter. Hours at The Arts Club Interest is being shown in the exhibition of members paintings at The Arts Club. 2027 Victoria street, which is varied in pictorial material and contains much meritorious work.
