THE CHRISTMAS ANGEL
Once upon a time there was a litlle princess
named Theodosia. She was a very selfish little
girl and thought only of herself.
One morning she woke very early and heard
the chiming of bells. It was Christmas morning. She jumped out of bed and ran down the
marble stairs to the big hall to see what Satita
Claus had brought her. She wanted a pearl
necklace.
She saw, around the hall, tablets with a
name on each one in golden letters. There was
the king's name and the queen's name and the
names of every one in the palace. Under each
tablet was a heap of beautiful gifts.
Theodosia looked a long time for her own
name. It was at the other end of the hall.
When she came to it there was nothing under
it but a black leather bag and upon it were
these words, "This is for the selfish Theodosia." She thought there might be a string
of pearls or something else very beautiful in
it for her. But when she tried to open it she
found it was locked and there was no key.
There was an inscription on the lock, "I am
worth much to him who can open me."
Theodosia was very much vexed and was
ready to cry. Suddenly in a mirror she saw
a beautiful angel standing behind her. His
garments were white as snow and his face
was gentle and kind. Theodosia knew at
once that he was the Christmas Angel and was
not frightened. When she turned around he
held out his hand and she put her hand in it
at once.
The Angel led her out of the palace and
through the streets. She carried the black
leather bag. He stopped at a little cottage
and opened the door and they went in. A woman and a little boy were in the room. The
little boy was trying to light a fire of chips
which he had gathered in the street. He was
crying from cold and hunger. The woman
was sewing. Her lips were moving and she
was saying over and over "Give us this day
our daily bread."
The Angel had covered Theodosia with a
corner of his robe and they were invisible.
The little princess had never seen such misery. She felt so sorry for the poor woman and
her little boy that she forgot all about herself.
She wanted to help them.
Just then she noticed that the bag had
opened a little way of itself. She caught the
gleam of silver within. She quickly thrust her
hand into the bag and scattered a handful
of silver in the room. The silver vanished in
midair and suddenly there was a bright fire
on the hearth and there was plenty of food on
the table and the little boy and his mother
were thanking God.

Theodosia felt very happy as the Angel led
her away. They went to a room in another
part of the city. There were a dozen little
children in the room. They were trying to
learn to read and spell from old newspapers
and a few tattered books. A young factory
girl was teaching them. She taught them
every morning before going to her work as
she did not want them to grow up ignorant.
Theodosia heard her tell the children that as
soon as they had finished the lesson they
would all go out and look at the pretty things
in the store windows.
Theodosia felt so sorry for them because
they had no pleasures and wanted to help
them. The bag opened again and she saw
there was gold in it. When she saw the gold
she said, "With this gold I can buy myself a
necklace of pearls." The bag began to shut.
Theodosia looked at the poor little children
again and then scattered all the gold about
the room.
The shabby little room changed at once
into a beautiful school room. Happy children
were trimming it in green. A pleasant faced
teacher was about to give them their Christmas gifts.
Then the Angel lifted Theodosia up and
carried her over many lands. She saw many
people who did not know what Christmas
meant. She saw many who had never heard
of Jesus Christ. She could not bear to think
there was so much sin and sorrow in the world.
She wanted to help every one and put her hand
into the bag to see if there was any more
money there.
There was nothing in the bag except a lovely pearl necklace. She did not want to give
that and looked in vain for gold or silver. At
last she flung the beautiful necklace down to
earth. It broke as it fell and scattered the
pearls far and wide. Where each pearl fell
there rose a church or a mission school.
The Angel carried her back to the palace.
The gifts were still piled up in the great hall,
and no one had come down yet. The black
bag lay under Theodosia's name, but now it
was wide open and full of gifts. On each gift
was an inscription. On a big bouquet of flowers were the words, "These are the prayers of
the poor." From the tablet hung a pearl necklace, and each pearl bore a name like Patience,
Gentleness, Truth, Innocence. Three pearls
were larger than the rest. On the largest pearl
were the words, "The greatest of these is charity." That was the name of the Christmas Angel. He vanished and she did not see him
again.
She understood that the black bag was like
her own heart. When it was closed to charity
it was poor and empty. But when it was open
for the sake of others it grew rich in treasur*-.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
To the Parents and Friends of the Pupils of
the Georgia School for the Deaf:—
As all pupils cannot go home to get the
joys of Christmas will you not give something
to enable them to get these joys at the Georgia
School? The teachers and all the officers will
gladly dispense anything that you wil give in
just the way you want it given; and if all of
you who read this will send a contribution according to your ability the deaf children at
Cave Spring will have a great Christmas, a
Christmas so full of joys that no children in
the world will be happier. Already we have
planned to give them three splendid movingpicture shows and a Christmas tree and three
parties during the holidays, but there are
many children whose parents are too poor to
provide them with gifts, and when all are together, as they are here, it takes away from us
most of the joy which gifts bring when there
are some who get nothing. I ask each of you
who read this if you cannot send a contribution, which, when added to what others will
send, will make a fund large enough to provide
gifts for all. In this way everybody rich and
poor may rejoice alike during Christmas.
I will open an account on our books for making a record of all gifts and all these will be
published in The School Helper. I will see to
it that each pupil knows what his father has
done for the happiness of his friends at school.
I will also see to it that our deaf children know
who has helped them with contributions.
These contributions may be in cash or in
boxes that contain gifts of any kind. I ask
that they be sent at once, certainly not later
than Dec. 20th, and that the express be prepaid. If your gift comes too late some child
may have his heart to ache while all the other
children are clapping their hands over what
they have gotten from the great Christmas
Tree which we are to have in our dining room.
May God bless all who help to make Christmas, 1021, a happv one for the deaf children.
J. C. HARRIS.
To Parents :-
The principal earnestly requests parents not
to ask that any of their children be allowed to
go home Christmas. Not only is it true that we
have a Christmas tree, and joys of all kinds
for the children, but I object most seriously to
the children leaving school during the term
and then returning. Some of them will be exposed to scarlet fever, whooping cough, and
other contagious diseases. Last year a child
who had been home for Christmas brought
whooping cough into our school, and the school
suffered greatly from this result. Hence it is
that I object for the sake of your child to
your taking him out of school during the five
days that I am allowing for Christmas holidays.
Christmas Holidays for 102 1 at the Georgia
School for the Deaf begin Friday December
2.'?rd, and end Sunday, January 1st. Plans arc
being made for parties, moving pictures, a
great Christmas tree, and other means that
will make it a season of great joy to our deaf
children. I believe that they will find more
joyous experiences here than they would at
their homes.
Among the things which came to each one
of our pupils on Thanksgiving Day was a card
from Miss Birdie Tucker, now in New York
City. Miss Tucker's service as a trained nurse
for several years in our school endeared her
greatly to all of us here, and as these cards to
our pupils testify, the deaf children of Georgia
won a warm place in her heart.
All the pupils of the Georgia School for the
Deaf are carefully weighed every month and
their weight recorded. The weights on December 1st disclose the fact that all except a
very few gained in weight during November.
Those who lose weight are placed at a special table under special care of the matrons and
nurse and given a diet specially rich in nutrient values. After they improve in weight they
are sent back to their usual places in the dining room.
During the month of November the following pupils made the largest gains:

Thomas Kills . ............. lit pourxln
Maxim*
Morris . ............ 1 1
pound*
Kufaula Franklin ........... !» pound*
I>an<'p. .............
7

It is interesting to note that the gain by
Thomas Ell is followed the excision of his tonsils and adenoids. We have observed so often
a vast improvement in the vigor of pupils
whose tonsils and adenoids have been removed
that we are constrained to urge all parents to
allow this done whenever our specialist recommends it.
The Bazaar
Th Sewing Club girls held their annual bazaar on December ath.
The articles on display were luncheon sets,
dresser scarfs, aprons, towels, pillow cases,
baby dresses and caps and numerous other
things. There was also a table of very attractive little doll hats designed and made by Angeline Wehreamp, one of the small girls.
Cake and candy were also sold and altogether a very nice sum was realized from the
bazaar.
The Sewing Club is an organi/ation started by Miss Nettie MeDaniel a number of years
ago and is a most helpful club for the girls.
They are taughe to crochet, to embroider,
and to do other things in the fancy work line.

Our Thanksgiving Party
Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day. We did
not come to school but had a holiday instead.
In the morning we went to see the basket ball
game in the chapel. The small deaf and town
boys played. Our side won the game against
the town boys. The score was 18 to 13.
We had a very fine dinner. We had chicken, gravy, dressing, cranberries, rice, Irish
potatoes, butterbeans, dill pickles, light bread,
mince pie, apples and oranges.
Many children got boxes yesterday noon. I
got one from home. I did not know that they
were going to send me one.
We had a party yesterday afternoon from
four to six. First the older children lined up
and then the boys chose partners and we
marched into the parlor together. We sat
down around the table and played the game of
"Putting hatpins in the peanuts." Alice Parker,
George Dance, Fred Jones and I were at one
table together. We played Rook.
Then we went into another room and Miss
Verne Smith gave us each a piece of paper
and pencil. There were profile pictures of
.some of the teachers and officers on the screen.
We guessed who the pictures were and wrote
the names on our papers. When we were
through we gave our papers to Miss Smith and
she looked at them. Those who got the right
names got prizes. I got one, too.
Then we went into another room and sat
down. We played "Spinning the Platter" and
"Simon says Thumbs Up." We had lots of fun.
Then we marched through the hall into another room. We looked at the things on the
table and then Miss Rupley covered them with
a cloth and we wrote all the things that we remembered. Those who got all perfectly got
prizes.
Then Rahn Whartenby served refreshments.

Our Trip
On the nineteenth of November Miss Norris's class went to Rome in Mr. Harris's and
Miss Nettie McDaniel's automobiles. We left
here about 9:20 o'clock and arrived in Rome
about 10:30 A. M. Miss Nettie McDaniel took
Violet Talbert with us.
Owen Robinson, Violet Talbert, John Parker and I were with Miss Nettie McDaniel in
her car. Miss Norris and the others were with
Mr. Harris in his car. We went to Wyatt's
store and looked at many pretty things there.
We went around town. Then we entered the
Busy Bee cafe and had fried oysters for lunch.
They were awfully good.
After lunch we went to the jewelry store
with Miss McDaniel and the Sewing Club girls
and bought a box of six silver spoons for Neelie Chappelear's wedding gift.
We all went to the high school. Many professors and teachers were there. We read our
teacher's lips, talked and wrote on the slate.
We said the twenty-third psalm and had lessons in language, geography and astronomy.
We only remained there half an hour. We
tried hard to do well. Everybody seemed
pleased with our class work. Mr. Harris, Miss
McDaniel and my teacher were very proud of
us because we did our best.
Then Gwen Robinson, Helen Mendelson,
Violet Talbert, John Parker and I went to the
movies to see William Fairbanks in "Go Get
Him." At four o'clock we left Rome and arrived here at five o'clock. We certainly had
a nice time on our trip and were so glad that
we pleased our superintendent, Mr. Harris,

weeks ago. They printed booklets which are
called "The Making of Matter." They printed
about six hundred booklets. We printed some
reports for the Baptist Association of Alabama
last week. We are printing the laws of the
town of Cave Spring this week. Last week
Eddie Morgan printed one thousand mortgages
and one thousand notes for Geo. Barlow, of
Piedmont, Ala., and he also printed many envelopes, letterheads, notes, blanks, billheads
etc.
On the first of December we printed some
very nice advertising blotters with the December calendar on them. They have been mailed out to business people.
Robert Barikston helps Mr. Murphy work
in the printing office every morning. He printed booklets, folded them and covered them last
week. He is always busy.
Esteben Ward and I folded the booklets for
Mr. Murphy a few weeks ago. I also set type
and helped him clean the printing office too.
One day Esteben and I cut the wood for the
fire at the printing shop. Esteben also carried
coal to the shop.
Eddie was absent from the printing office
stnoral days. He went home for Thanksgiving
holidays. We are glad to have him back to
work in our shop again.
We willl not work in the printing office during Christmas holidays. We will return to
work after the first of January. Our shop will
close December 2:'>rd because we shall have
Christmas holidays.

Girls Industrial News
The large girls go to the chapel elery Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday to practice
basket-ball. We enjoy it so much.
Our class goes to Miss Clarke twice a week
We made some very attractive folders for
Thanksgiving greetings. They were done in
water color. Now we are drawing larger pictures of a boy standing in front of a turkey.
There is a pumpkin beside the turkey. In our
next lesson we shall paint the pictures in water
colors.
Most of the large girls go to the sewing room
every day except Tuesday and Thursday. We
have finished the green and yellow trousers
for the boys' basket-ball team. We are making aprons for the maids, mending stockings
and table cloth's and making blouses and
night-gowns for the State pupils. All of the
girls are working very hard to finish the things
f(i tJ e bc?£ur. Miss McDaniel thinks we
shall have the bazaar Saturday, Dec. 3rd.

The Dining Room
Twenty-two girls worked during November
in the dining room. There were nine girls who
were the waitresses and had charge of the
tables. They changed the table covers every
Wednesday and Saturday. There are seventeen tables in the dining room for the pupils.
There are two tables for the officers. Six girls
swept carefully there every morning and noon.
Seven girls wiped the dishes, glasses and silver,
Two boys have charge of the dish washing
machine. Miss Powers has charge of us. Every
one of us enjoyed doing our work neatly. We
will again do this work in January for it will
be our turn to go on duty. We take pride in
our dining room and think it is very attractive,
as the ceilings are high. There are many high
white pillars and a number of large windows
to make it look bright and cheerful.

The Carpenter Shop
Four boys go to the carpenter shop every
day. They help Mr. Metcalf to plane bookcases, mend chairs, and mend desks that are
broken. Mr. Metcalf asked us what kind of
work we liked to do. We like to make things in
the carpenter shop. Some one needed a table
and a book case built. We planed the lumber
and made them.
Lonnie Wood painted them. We plane much
lumber to make things.
We sweep the saw dust and keep the shop
clean.
It is very nice there.
I like the work very much.

The Farm and Garden
Last Friday afternoon I went into the dining
room and asked Miss Powers if she wanted
to have vegetables for the teachers, officers,
and pupils to eat the next day, and she gave
me a note with the names of the vegetables
for me to take to Mr. Grimes.
Miss Powers wanted mustard and lettuce.
I went into the garden to cut two and one
half bushels of mustard and also gathere-l
the lettuce and brought it to the kitchen.
The vegetables were very nice.
Saturday Mr. Carpenter taught us how to
cut grass and weeds with hoes and clean up
the garden.
We looked at the vegetables. They were very
pretty and other things were beginning to
come up.
We like for him to teach us to work in the
garden and on the farm.
We all like to work so much.
If you were to come into the garden, you
would be surprised at the many vegetables
we have there.

A Christmas Story
A poor little girl lived with her father and
mother. She was an only child. Her parents
were very poor. One Christmas eve the little
girl asked her mother if Santa Clans would
bring her any gifts. Her mother said she did
not know, but she thought Santa Clans would
not come at. all because they were so poor.
But the little girl did not believe it.
So when she went to bed she put her wooden
shoes on the window sill and then prayed to
God to send Santa Claus to her house.
A poor little robin was trying to get warm
and saw the wooden shoes on the window sill.
So he came and hopped into one of the shoes.
The little girl woke up and ran to the window
and found something in her shoe. She was
very much surprised when she saw that it was
a little robin and ran and showed it to her parents. Her parents were very sad because
they thought the little girl would get no gifts
for Christmas. They were glad that the little
robin had made her happy.

How to Make Doll Hnt*
First you get a cute little dolll. Then get
lots of different scraps like silk or velvet lace
or anything that will make a pretty hat; then
get a lot of pretty flowers and feathers. The
simplest way t'> get the feathers is to pull them
out of the rooster's tail and neck. Take some
card-board and cut the brim round with a
hole in the middle for the crown; then put a
piece of cloth under it and push it down on
the doll's head;then sew the cloth to the brim.
When through you take a straight piece of
cloth and catch under and on t >p the brim
at the crown ;then trim with feathers or flowers. The dolis with large eyes an. the; cutest.
